Still hyped from yesterday. The caddy shack dancing gopher on the big screen after the game was sweet.

Only bummer was no on field award ceremony. That was a miss.

I managed to capture an image of the gopher.

Just got here and picking up food in Ybor. Didn't know there was a parade but saw the buses go by for both teams with the bands. Lots of both fans out and out. Pretty fun atmosphere so far We were at the parade and it seemed it was majority Gophers fans down in Ybor City with some Auburn fans sprin...

Money sent. Thanks for maintaining the site. Enhancements have been great!

Costco has the cheapest gas, all the time. But one negative in winter: no capability to clean your windows. How much cheaper is the gas than other gas stations? I can’t imagine it is enough to make it worth my time to deal with lines and chaos. I think both Sam's and Costco are around 25 to 30 cent...

I currently have PS Vue, but with the discontinuation, we're swapping to Youtube TV. Much of the same lineup. Sports for me, and a lot of the junk my wife likes to watch, so it all works out. We were really happy with PS Vue as well. Really consistent and surprisingly the 720p up-scaled really nice...

This is great.

You have got to be kidding be that he said that of all players I told my buddies that I almost wish he hadn't said it because now it sounds like I made the story up.

We got a ton in Eagan too. Went to go play golf this morning and the course didn't allow golf carts on the course until 11 so we had walked the front. A few holes were pretty dry but there were some that were absolutely soaked. Made the greens nice and receptive though!! Played Theodore Wirth. No c...

I forget the model but I think it was the tailgater or a similar size. I smoke turkey on there (brine it overnight first) quite often and it just crushes on Thanksgiving :) The 1-2-3 Ribs receipe that Traeger has is a nice simple way to make ribs. Get a solid dry rub (I use a dry mustard rub as a b...

Wasn't sure if I should put this here or in the Dumb Questions thread. I'm taking my son to Twins Fest next weekend.

I had my first full, real feel experience with a HitTrax machine today. Damn I wish I had access to that when I was coaching. My boys have been hitting with it for 2 yrs at Starters. It's fun to see their exit velocities increase through the years and see quick results of the adjustments from their...

What is the process for getting an iPhone battery replaced? Is this something that can be done while you wait? If not, do I have to give them my password to change it?

I'm strongly considering axing cable in favor of PSVue/YouTube TV/Hulu

PS Vue has MLB Network, where as Hulu doesn't (at least it didn't when we were looking). It's one reason we went with PS Vue even though we don't have a Playstation.

Thanks for the input. Looks like Forager is the only choice.

I'm going to be in Rochester this weekend for the Gopher State Baseball tournament. We'll have some downtime so a few of the parents will want to hit up a brewery or few down there. I know a few people of mentioned a couple of different breweries down there before. What are they again? I think it wa...

Anyone had a chance to play The Royal Golf Club in Lake Elmo yet? I'm playing there this upcoming weekend. Haven't touched my clubs yet this summer. I would like to hear your thoughts on the course.

Has anyone been to a game at new Siebart? What you think of the park? Has anyone seen a gopher baseball game at US Bank? What’s the vibe like there?

I'm assuming those are compression pants. Supposedly they help with keeping muscles warm and improve blood flow.

Done. Thanks!

7. What unusual distinction is shared by these major league baseball teams, and no others? Angels, Dodgers, Marlins, Nationals, Orioles, Yankees, and formerly the Braves, Tigers, and White Sox. They don't have mascots? https://i.pinimg.com/originals/56/36/60/56366039e9c46d8005d5470eb81067e1.jpg

Crappy week at work so far, and it's not looking better for the next month or so, so cracked a 2011 Jewbalation 15th Anniv (12 oz) from Schmaltz' He'brew line.

Maybe that explains why it took a month to get my license plates on the new car. Never taken more than about a week for me before. You'd think the 21 permit would now be a 30 day, but it isn't.

Ridges is one of my favorite courses in the Southwest Metro. It sort plays like two different style courses with the upper holes more links style and the lower holes more north woods feel with Sand Creek winding through several holes.

Anyone try Mr Pigstuff in Shakopee? So far the one meal I've had there was pretty good

Yes, I've been there a few times. Their pig wings are pretty good.

$70 for Stonebrooke is over priced, although is you book online from their website, the cart is free.

Did you check out Ridges at Sand Creek in Jordan? That is a great course that is a great value as well.

One rule I would like to see in MLB. Whatever body armor your wear while batting must remain with you while you are on the bases. You can take it off and put in your back pockets, similar to batting gloves. Or you hold it and still wear it. Just whatever you think you need while you bat. Needs to b...

I have never heard anything good about Lego Land. My parents took my two older ones when they were around 6 and 8 and they didn't really like it.
