I was born and raised in San Diego, California - so I'm still a big baby during the Minnesota winter. My 10 year old son, Isaac, is the most important thing in the world to me - but don't tell that to my dog or three cats. I am a sports fanatic, and admittedly, a fan of most types of gambling (good thing I never have any money, eh?) I love St. Cloud, and currently live in the great city of Sauk Rapids....Go Storm!

Twins Better Think Twice Before Trading Span!
Denard Span is not your conventional lead-off hitter.
You could certainly make the argument that he is a better #2 hitter in the line up.
He doesn't steal nearly as many bases as we would like, and when he does run - it sure seems like he gets thrown out a lot...
I’ll Take Miami, And Lebron – To Beat The Young ‘Thunder’!
I have done a complete 180 on this one, for sure.
Last week, and for much of this season really, I have been hyping up Oklahoma City, and not giving much credit to the Miami Heat. And now, here they are, meeting in the NBA Finals.
The Thunder have been super-impressive this post season - making short work of the; Mavs, Lakers, and Spurs - the three teams that have ruled the Western Conference for
OKC – A New Dynasty In The West!
It will be hard for the Oklahoma City Thunder to rule the NBA's Western Conference for the next decade - or the foreseeable Kevin Durant era - but I wouldn't bet against it.
Last night, they impressively put away the veteran Spurs, to advance to their first ever NBA Finals...
Apollo vs. ROCORI Is “Must See” This Saturday!
The two best teams in the Central Lakes Conference this baseball season, are set to square off once again this Saturday at the MAC. It's ROCORI (15-6) vs. Apollo (19-1).
And to say that Apollo has gotten the better of it this year between the two teams - would be a serious understatement...
A Changing Of The Guard In The Western Conference!
Nothing lasts forever.
You can't win 'em all.
Feel free to add your favorite cliche right here, especially if you are one of the many "Laker Haters" we have here in Minnesota.
Last night, the Oklahoma City Thunder finished off the surprisingly mistake-prone L...
The Canterbury Park Season Opens Tonight!
With apologies to my good buddy Paul Allen, who calls all the races at Canterbury Park - THEY'RE RACIIIIIINNNNNGGG!
The "live" races are back at Canterbury Park for the summer, starting tonight.
First post is at 7pm - and there are nine races scheduled for Opening Night...
A San Diego Native Remembers Junior Seau….
The great Chargers linebacker, Junior Seau, was one year ahead of me growing up in San Diego, California. Of course, before he was the great Chargers linebacker, he was a standout at USC, and even before that, a local phenom at Oceanside High School...
Vikings Had A Fantastic Draft!
I have been accused of being more negative, than positive, at times - especially when it comes to our Minnesota sports teams.
But let's be honest, right now is NOT a great time to be a sports fanatic in Minnesota. All of our professional teams are, shall we say, worse than most, in their respective sport...
Vikings Need To Get It Right Tonight!
With the first two selections in this year's NFL draft all but a certainty - the Vikings find themselves in the "catbird seat". After Andrew Luck goes to the Colts, and Robert Griffin III goes to the Redskins - nobody really knows what is going to happen...
Ty’s Playoff Prediction – Don’t Sleep On The Lakers!
NBA teams around the league, as well as fans around the country, had to notice the impressive win Sunday by the Lakers, over the Thunder. Aside from the antics of Metta World Peace, the Lakers were able to come up with a huge win in come-from-behind fashion, and clearly sent a message to the rest of the league...
