Minnesota Sports weekend
It started out with the Twins getting trounced in game 3 Friday night.
Early Saturday afternoon, the (previously 5-0) U of Minnesota Gophers lost to Michigan in the Little Brown Jug game for something like the 15th year in row. The last two years the Gophers were up and lost in the last couple of minutes.
And late Saturday afternoon, the Twins also blew their lead and had their season ended in the baseball playoffs.
Sunday the Vikes had the big early lead (21-0) and got stretched into OT, before they (sort of) salvaged the weekend for the Minnesota sports fans. I love living out here after a weekend like this. Everyone is so quiet.

You could also say that 16 was alot like 15, except 15 was the bigger choke. That lead was 28-7 I think. This lead was only 14, right?
