Season tix renewed!  And with Jr. in 9th grade this fall (i.e. no Saturday games for him), I will be able to get to more games.

Duff, More importantly you'll have time to stroll by tailgate spots 17-21 and grab a brew

Who cares about game attendance or  playoff wins...we are kicking ass on Instagram!!!

Any of y'all ever done any sandhill crane hunting in MN?  Those are some big birds, and they are vicious.  Lots of fun to shoot.  Meat is a little overrated, but still very good!

Back when I lived in Alaska, I'd hunt ducks and geese with a bunch of FBI guys on the tidal flats across Cook Inlet from Anchorage. Great fun. Floatplane access only.

The SAC (a Mac grad from Anoka) saw some guys nearby shoot a swan. Turns out they were a bunch of lawyers. He offered them a choice ... an immediate swan dinner or a call to Fish & Game.

Apparently not the tastiest of waterfowl.

We haven't had a good beer commercial in a while.  Here's another classic from Carlton.

Well done, Oz.

Here's an old school Hamm's ad that'll entice to wet the whistle:

Heh. The first one in that list is imprinted on my brain as the Hamm's commercial.

Not sure if there's an air conditioning contest but we turned ours on today at approximately 6:30 pm. Hot and sticky might be fun for some things but sleeping isn't one of them.

I considered it.  I even consulted the wife.  We left it off.

Had to surrender early. Cleaning lady texted yesterday asking if she could turn it on ... couldn't think how I'd explain her needing to sweat like a stuck hog because I want to bump my street cred with a bunch of random, middle aged D3 football nerds

What's everyone's favorite thing to hunt?  Love me some dove hunting.  High limits with lots of shooting.  If it flies and dies I am in.  Deer hunting is nice, but in Texas it's not the most sporting of activities in my opinion.  Hoping to do some hog/predator hunting with the thermal scope soon.

Deer, but wild love to do wild hog. I'm glad we don't have them in the area of our family farm where I hunt deer.

Pheasant, I enjoy how active it is. I get a bit bored in the tree stand all day. Wild hog is on the list for sure.

Not that anyone asked, but got done with SJU visit #2 with my oldest Sunday. Prospect camp, we did a Jr Day visit earlier this Spring. Both Dumo and Heckendorf were really great, as much as I'd like to still believe all Johnnies are horrible degenerates.   I will also say, your burgers are much better than Bethel's. 

Fun Spring so far, next few weeks will be interesting with NDSU and UWRF Mega Camp on deck. Hoping to get the camps done early so we can enjoy summer and prep for Sr season. It's crazy how much pressure is on these kids to go to every camp under the sun. Very different from when we old farts did this process.

It is crazy.  Duff Jr will be a freshman this year, and we had a high school football meeting a few weeks ago.  They had a 20 minute presentation on college recruiting.  Not to mention the offseason workout expectations.  Much different than my late-90's experiences.
