Sports Futility: It’s the Minnesota Way
As a Minnesota sports fan, all I’ve known for my entire life is pain and suffering. A representative of the younger generation of Minnesota fandom, I have never, not once in my life, witnessed the Vikings, Timberwolves, Wild, or Twins play in a championship game or series. In fact, based on my own internet sleuthing and basic math, the four major men’s teams based in the Twin Cities have gone 51 straight playoff appearances without reaching the championship round, the longest such drought of any city in the United States.
