Tonight is the opener for the Gopher Women’s Basketball team. Pretty much the only sport of team I pay any attention to these days. But I am kind of a fanatic about this team. It’s a little bit like being a Cubs fan. Fanaticism undiluted by years of frustration. I’ve been saying that they were going to be good this year for decades now. Last year I had high hopes but they were hit really hard by injuries. At this point everyone is healthy, I think they might be good this year. And by good I mean finishing in the middle of the B1G and making the tournament. The B1G is a brutally tough conference.

Another beautiful Fall day, I’m headed out to do some yard work.
