Masked Fan Speaks

Study associates heartburn with NFL referees & some WILD news! It is late Sunday eve and all I can say is that after watching this afternoon's two gridiron matchups, I am almost glad the Minnesota Vikings weren't playing! The NFL had its two Conference Championship games today and it was hard to watch them when you consider the absolute and total futility of the officiating crews that worked today's big events. The NFC battle featured Philadelphia and San Francisco (PHI 31-7W) and this game should have tipped me off to what a disastrous day of officiating I was about to witness.

From the Outside

Disappearing Cold. We’ve just finished what is statistically the coldest week of winter in the Upper Midwest, but the deep cold that typically envelopes us has, so far, been completely absent this winter, despite the La Nina conditions in the equatorial Pacific Ocean that favor a colder than average winter.

Basketball Report

Saturday Jan 28th: Two Harbors 79 International Falls 40 The Agates survived a sluggish start to pick up the road win at the Broncos. I thought the group of freshmen Jace Gomez, sophomores Tate Nelson & Jace Ruberg along with juniors Trevor Kleive & Thor Tokvam provided a much needed spark finishing the 1st half on a 20-5 run to provide a 43-22 cushion at the half. Trent Gomez led all scorers with 15 points followed by Jace Gomez with 13. In all, 13 Agates were in the scoring column. Tuesday Jan 31st: Two Harbors 70 Cromwell 35 A fantastic defensive clinic was put on by the Agates in limiting the Cardinals chances all night. On the offensive side of things, great balance with Ethan Bopp & Trent Gomez netting 15 points each, followed by Isaiah Hietala with 13. Again, 13 Agates found the basket on the night.
