T.J. Tosses a Gopher Ball to This Minnesotan

T.J. Simers’ article “Forecast for Minnesota Is Broom and Bored” was quite laughable. It’s obvious that Mr. Simers has very little creativity and has never spent any time in Minnesota.

Mr. Simers, the whole “dumb Midwesterner” thing has really been beaten to death. I used to live in California and left it for Minnesota. Your pompous article just reaffirmed my reasons for leaving, thanks!

If you’re a sportswriter, why not write about sports rather than “doing your homework” on Bob Dylan and F. Scott Fitzgerald? Shouldn’t you be doing your homework on the Timberwolves? Oh yeah, that’s right. Your “regular-season slackers” will take care of our ‘Wolves. Ever stop to think that maybe you’re the yahoo, Mr. Simers?
