I'm with ya. But what a mess of the Gophers bball team is. I thought they were going to be decent. Them Fitzgerald tears his ACL. Now springs is going to quit if he dosen't start
All good with Springs now...don't know what that was all about. I'm not sold on Pitino at all, but gotta believe this is a big bounceback year for the Gophs. But they have a long way to go!

And I'll also be pulling for the Bucks as a young smaller midwest market team. I'm generally with Q in not pulling for any Western Conference team other than the Wolves. But I've always had a soft spot for the Thunder because of their small market and devoted fans. My affection for the Thunder has grown with Durant's departure and Westbrook's display of loyalty to his teammates and fans. So I'll be pulling for the Thunder except when they're playing the Wolves.
That's sorta ironic, isn't it?
I can't shake the fact that the franchise was effectively stolen from another devoted fanbase.
[Note: It's a lot easier to be a loyal fan when you only know one honeymoon season and then 45 - 60 win seasons. Let's see how great of a fanbase OKC has after 12 years of futility.]
