The blog formerly about a daily dose of mostly Minnesota sports rants and raves with a sprinkling of general sports commentary and a pinch of jaded-malaise regarding the world around us

I had heard this...but it's more shocking when it appears in the NY Times

Apparently, the members of the Shakopee Indian tribe are insanely rich (in fact, they are the richest tribe in the US).  Good for them, I guess?  And for real, good for them for actually giving more to charity than 3M and US Bancorp.  I guess I never realized just how much money these guys were making.

On a completely separate note: I read yesterday that since early May (forget the exact date), the Twins have scored the most runs in the AL, and are 5 games over .500.  Too bad a 10-25 start will doom your season.

Jan - great Champions Club photos, by the way.  Very cool...

It's good to be back.
