Sports Take: Recapping an awful Minnesota sports week filled with losses, injuries and a new Twins manager whose hiring doesn't exactly spark confidence. It's gotta get better, right?

If Game 7 of the 1991 World Series (Twins vs. Atlanta) had gone into the 17th inning, would Jack Morris have refused to come out of the game? (Happy 34th anniversary of that game to all who celebrate.)

Letting the night go by, let the innings hold me down.
You may ask yourself, "Who's left in the bullpen?"
You may ask yourself, "How long is this really going to go?"
And you may ask yourself, "What time do I clock in tomorrow?"
And you may say to yourself, "My God, what have they done?"

There is a Blue Jays fan in my wife’s kindergarten class, and I’m kind of hoping the game is going on when she wakes up in the morning so she can see the end.

Over/Under on the number of times John Smoltz brings up Game 7 of the 1991 World Series? Twins 1, Atlanta 0 in 10 innjngs. Morris vs Smoltz, who got replaced in the eighth inning of a scoreless tie. Greatest Game 7 ever.
