THURSDAY
I met up with my pals JE and DB, two guys I haven't seen in far too long. We just chilled at JE's place, had a few brewskis and WATCHED HOCKEY. The Minnesota Wild and the University of Minnesota Gophers were both victorious on Thursday and it was a very uplifting thing to watch. DB wasn't the best at remembering to go back and forth to the different channels, since the games overlapped for a while, but we did manage to see most of the excitement. DB and I did our own sports commentary in amazing Iron Range accents, JE was rolling at our comedic chemistry :) haha.
My tweets from the night are pretty entertaining as well.

FRIDAY
I spent the day at the Foundry Home Goods and as soon as I closed up I headed to the Target Center to watch the basketball game.
The picture below thoroughly expresses how amazing this night was (even though the Rockets lost, yes I was cheering for Houston over Minnesota).
Everyone in this image means the world to me.
After the Wolves pulled off an impressive win over a team actually in the play-offs this crew dispersed and most of us (everyone over 21) ended up on a rooftop and partied the night away! <3
SATURDAY
Hockey + My Girls = <3 the only thing that would have been the night better was if the Gophers would have won, but I love them any ways.
We watched the game from a couch, drank a few beers, and got some delicious Gingerhop delivery. Sometimes staying in is much more satisfying than going out on the town, especially with such brilliant ladies next to me. I may have been the only person truly immersed in the game the whole time and the ladies were a bit distracting (especially LG) but not spending the evening with them was not an option, not with my upcoming trip so close. Spending as much quality time with my loved ones has and will be priority until I leave.

SUNDAY
I slept in and then at the very last minute a day trip to Target Field was planned and I got to spend the day watching an entertaining game with three of my favorite boys; my bother KP Jr and two of my cousins, AH + TH!
I love sports (and sometimes that is all I do all weekend long) but mostly I love watching sports with friends & family. Sports bring people together, give people a reason to cheer or chirp, either way there is a lovable passion. Win or lose a sporing event is about the experience, it's about who you are watching with, who is cheering next to you and how classy you are when your team doesn't come out on top. Good sportsmanship is a skill that crosses over into so many other areas of life.
I hope you & your teams had a great weekend and that the fans or fraaaans that you spend time with make you a better player, life may not be a game but you can still play with passion, skill and creativity.
