In case you didn’t know, tomorrow is the beginning of the NFL season, with the Steelers and Titans squaring off on NBC. Next month, we’ll see the beginning of what should be an interesting NHL season in which the Wild have undergone a complete overhaul. The NBA starts in early October as well if you’re into that.
Meanwhile, the Twins dropped another game yesterday in embarassing fashion. They sit at 6.5 games out. The other team that anyone here is concerned with, the White Sox, had a bit of a fire sale and is 7.5 games out. I’ve talked until blue in the face about how Ron Gardenhire should shoulder some of the blame for the Twins collapse, and that the Twins desperately need to keep Nick Punto out of the lineup and improve the pitching staff. I’ve written all of that.
Now, however, the nightmare season the Twins have had will be overshadowed by a variety of other sports. Finally! So, while I’m sure that the lovely Beth will have something on the Twins or baseball tomorrow, but after that? I would expect a lot more talk on other sports. It’s a lot less stressful.
