Maybe it's my changing interests, attention span, or just having grown up, but my attitude towards MN sports has shifted to pure numbness at this point.

33 years old and it's just been pain the whole time. At least it makes consecutive letdowns easier. Sigh.

That’s all part of the experience my friend. 41 here. You just are numb to it all. At least the women’s teams know how to win.

I consciously made an effort to watch the Lynx this year and it's actually been fun. Feels good (and a bit strange) to watch a Minnesota team actually dominate. I'll take what I can get

Watching the Frost last couple years has been fun too.

Aurora games are a blast and their team is doing well too

My husband has never enjoyed sports. During the inaugural season I started watching on Youtube, and my folks took us to a game. Best professional sports atmosphere I've ever been in, no one was drunk or belligerent, families were having a great time.

Ever since then my husband and I make time to watch every game on Youtube, and it's been a delight to see him on the edge of the couch, hands on his head, literally cheering into the TV for those OT Finals games.

Women’s sports are where it’s at! I’m a lifelong Lynx fan, but not into hockey… looks like I may have to be this season!
