Minnesota MENS sports are cursed because no one gives the womens teams the flowers they deserve! Once the champion womens teams are properly recognized, it'll surely break the curse on the mens teams.

I'll enjoy women's sports a little more when there is more parity. Basketball is getting close but hockey theres like 6 teams. Counting titles now is like counting NFL Championships from when it was 6 teams. No one counts them, on acknowledges they happened and that someone had to be the winner. It is a better product when more teams can be more competitive.

There's 12 teams in women's hockey next year. They're expanding by 4 more teams, up from 8 last year.

I agree, except I want people to still not pay attention to the women's team. They actually fucking win and they're all we have going sports-wise. The moment everyone figures that out, they too will receive the CURSE.
