People are intrigued. Apparently before the Super Bowl played a few weeks ago the folks in Germany had their own event just before game time. There was a game of football played on ice. There were yard lines and end zones clearly marked and even fully lighted goal posts. The fun part is that they […]
There’s nothing that makes dads happier than taking their kids to an experience. Their first bike ride on a trail, camping, concerts, and that first ball game at their favorite team’s home field. I know how cool it felt when I got to take my kids to their first Vikings football game. We had a […]
Teams and major league sports are full of gimmicks and funny promotions. The Brewers have the Sausage Races, the Vikings have the Mascots vs Youth Football games at halftime, and in basketball there is usually a half court shot contest. Most of them are harmless fun with a few twists here and there or some […]
I’m not sure what it is with basketball at the middle school level this week and crazy stories, but here comes another one. Apparently, some fans didn’t like some calls at a game in Vermont. Or they didn’t like the way a couple of fans were acting. Either way it broke out into a fight […]
Over the years we have heard stories of kids that played sports that weren’t actually kids. Their parents gave false birth information or a college athlete just started going to high school to keep playing the sport they love. In some instances we see a kid that seems to be overdeveloped for their age and […]
Paul Allen has been calling the play-by-play for the Minnesota Vikings for 20 years. He is the consummate sports fan and is a leading voice in the NFL.

The tragedy in Uvalde, Texas has been a tough story to read and hear about. The last few months have been very tough on that community. At some point life keeps moving forward and someone has to lead that charge. In Uvalde the high school football team has stepped up to that leadership role. They […]
While I’m not the biggest baseball fan in the world I would still be excited if a home run ball was headed towards me. I do hope I would never get so excited that I would steal the ball out of another person’s glove. It would be worse if it was a kid. At a […]
I’ve sat in each of the seats in sports as a player, a parent, a coach, and as a referee. They all have their challenges and important parts of the game experience. The last few years the parent aspect has been affecting the other areas of the games and has caused a level of negativity […]
The NFL business model is to continue to expand the reach of professional football world wide. There are several countries that have semi-pro versions of American football, but nothing close to the NFL since the World League existed. Every year a couple games are played over there now where previously there was only one. Originally […]
