Random Thursday on a Friday

*I've been "busy."

*I'm confident the Vikings will win a Super Bowl in my lifetime.  I wonder what it will be like to be 150?  I bet the Internet will be super fast.

*Reggie Tales shout out to Jay in Inverness.

*Ben Leber said today that when the Vikings had 12 men in the huddle in the 2009 NFC Championship Game, the coaches were arguing with each other over the headsets.  Not shocking.

*If you ever have the opportunity to have a baby, start a new job, sell a house and buy a new house, all within six months, you should politely decline.  

*The last movie I saw was "Martian."  I'm really out of the loop.

*Bonus shout out to Out of Work Hockey Guy.  I'm pretty sure he'd rather be at work.  Get well.

*I always wonder why the Minnesota Twins go to the Winter Meetings.  Seems like a waste of time and money.

Random Thursday on a Monday

*I took some time off to have a baby.  And wash my car.

*Godfather's is better than Pizza Hut.  And it really isn't close.

*Crossed the Foo Fighters off my Concert Bucket List on Saturday night.  What a show.  Two hours and forty-five minutes of pure savagery.  If you get the chance to see this concert, do it.

*That leaves Bruce Springsteen and The Red Hot Chili Peppers.  

*Reggie Tales shout out to Mr. and Mrs. Rainman, south of 494 and East of Lyndale.

*My son, The Prince, is a big fan of Baby Einstein.  

*The Vikings will win 10 games this year.

*The Twins are an odd club, aren't they?

*I have an interesting group of Twitter followers.  Maybe you'd like to join that group. @ChrisJRegimbal.  It's just like The Tales, but more frequent, and at stranger hours.

Random Thursday on a Monday

*Remember Deflategate?  Neither do I.

*Despite his goal yesterday, TJ Oshie didn't seem like his normal self during the series.

*Matt Cooke had a below the radar good game.  Which is a good thing for him personally and the Wild.

*Deeks Pizza.  That is all.

*Reggie Tales shout out to Red Sox Daughter who is moving to the Denver area for a very cool job!

*How early is too early to mow your yard...on a Sunday?

*Sometimes 60 degrees can feel like 80.

*Game 7 tonight in the NHL?  Yes please.

*Now that April is over, it's good to see Jimmy From Accounting enjoying himself.  He's always happy to see the end of his busy season.

Random Thursday on a Friday

*Good Friday?  Heck, it's a Great Friday.

*Grand Forks needs a real hot dog joint.  And by real, I mean one that is open.

*I've never watched one episode of Big Bang Theory but I like Jim Parsons.

*If you're bored, I can be found on Twitter at @ChrisJRegimbal.  If you're bored.

*I mowed my lawn on Wednesday and today it's 15 degrees.  Gotta love NoDak.

*Las Vegas is calling but so is this dang baby.

*Reggie Tales shout out to Rain Man in Bloomington.  Even though he moved to the big city he and Mrs. Rain Man were able to find the Judy's of MSP in about fifteen minutes.

*I have high hopes for the Entourage movie.

Random Thursday on a Friday

*The Adrian Peterson saga will come down to money.  It almost always does.  If the Vikings pay him the $13 million, he will be in Minnesota.  No other team is going to give him that kind of money.

*Speaking of running backs, it's hard to believe Maurice Jones-Drew is retiring.  When running backs' skills begin to diminish in the NFL, they diminish quickly.

*I might be late to the party, but the Mac and Cheese at Panera is a life changer.  Wow.

*I dipped my toe into the water that is Twitter.  @ChrisJRegimbal  Once I'm more comfortable I'm going to begin live tweeting day to day life.

*How much do I like watching televised sporting events?  I spent a couple hours Wednesday night taking in the Minnesota Gophers and Minnesota Twins in an exhibition baseball game.  

*My snowblower is looking lonely in my garage but not lonely enough to root for a last minute storm.

*Reggie Tales shout out to Top Dog Grooming in Grand Forks.  Long gone are the days of Googling "grand forks dog groomers."  

*The last 18 or so NHL games should be interesting.  Can the LA Kings catch either Winnipeg or Minnesota?  I wouldn't bet against them.

*Speaking of betting, wouldn't it be fun to go to Vegas?

Random Thursday on a Tuesday

*Sad, really, watching Adrian Peterson attempting to force a trade out of Minnesota.  The Vikings will never get close to his real value in a trade.  

*There is something about Spring Training that makes you feel like everyone has a chance.  Even the Twins.  Maybe Paul Molitor is just what the doctor ordered.

*I came within one point of predicting the Super Bowl score and winning team.

*The two hottest teams in the NHL are your Minnesota Wild and my Los Angeles Kings.

*Reggie Tales shout out to The Good Doctor, who is celebrating another birthday this week.

*I'm thinking about getting into the Twitter game.

Random Thursday

*I wonder what happened to the "technology and stuff" guy from the World Series?

*Remember when the Detroit Lions would take Barry Sanders out of the game when they would get to the one yard line?

*If the Minnesota Twins get to 75 wins this season, would that be considered a success?

*I dislike both Super Bowl participants, but I think I dislike Seattle a little more.  So by default, I'm rooting for New England.  I'm also rooting for a horrendously, controversial call which underscores the awful officiating in the NFL.

*Wouldn't it be fun to watch a Super Bowl in Vegas?

*Reggie Tales shout out to Mitch in Horace.

*I watched "The Interview" the other day.  It's not nearly as bad as I thought it would be.  How's that for a vote of confidence?
