Basketball: I've been to three Minnesota Timberwolves games so far, and the Wolves are somehow looking good (a record so far of 5-2) despite the fact that three or four of their best players are out with injuries for extended periods. How long can they win before there aren't enough players left to man the court? The only undefeated team, the New York Knicks (4-0). Some of the worst NBA records so far -- Detroit Pistons at 0-8 and Toronto at 1-6, the only Raptors win unfortunately coming against the Timberwolves. :-(
Football: I'm not feeling a lot of excitement about this season, maybe because the Vikings are just ranked a mediocre 14th (out of 32 teams), which is actually better than anyone expected, and the Eagles are ranked #24, way worse than anyone would have expected. The top-ranked teams are all pretty unlikable: Houston Texans, Atlanta Falcons, Chicago Bears. Ho-hum.
Baseball (even though baseball season is long over): Millville boy Mike Trout of the Los Angeles Angels was named American League Rookie of the Year. Yay!
Hockey: The NHL is still on lock-out. I never hear anybody talking about this.
Lacrosse: Just kidding.
