2011 Homecoming game for the Lakeville MN North Panthers 2011 vs Burnsville Blaze Read more…

While some Sportsdaddy’s take their sons hunting, I prefer taking my kid to live sporting events.

This last weekend (Oct 1-3, 2010) was a great weekend of sports for my son and I. First off, we started out with Minnesota’s version of Friday Night Lights. Read on…

“Fans, don’t fail to miss tomorrow’s game.”
-Dizzy Dean
Don’t worry Dizzy, we won’t take your quote too serious. The Twins were rained out on Friday, and I felt a bit ripped off, not being able to see Francisco Liriano pitch under the lights on TV. It is one of my guilty pleasures; baseball on TV. But even better, I got to out to Outback Steakhouse with the wife and kids, and get home early enough o watch the best show on TV, “Friday Night Lights”.

I just think that TV show is aces. If you haven’t watched, you have to start.

Speaking of start, which game will Liriano pitch tomorrow? Will it be the day game at noon, or the night game make-up?

This means that Saturday, for the first time at Target Field, Twins fans can’t fail to miss either game.

It looks like most of the varsity tailgaters from our lot will be attending the game Friday Night. For those of wondering, we tailgate like the Vikings play in the preseason.

In other words, there is no official game plan for the evening. There will be no goalposts, no grilling, and we will most likely even be driving vehicles down town. It is our preseason too, and we like to try out new things.

We are all looking forward to hearing the starting QB introduced though.
