We are still a couple days from March, but already the madness is descending. Last night, you had the debut of Chris Simon (in a Wild victory), a Wolves loss to Toronto (a very bad matchup for an overmatched squad), a name-the-score loss for the Gophers men’s hoops team at Purdue (65-53, which should have been about three points within anybody’s best guess on both sides), OT high school hockey thrillers at Mariucci (Edina and Benilde-St. Margaret’s moved on to state with overtime goals, while defending Class 2A champion Roseau downed Moorhead 6-1 to make it back), not to mention plenty of non-Minnesota action. What’s a guy to do? It seems obvious. We have to empty out our e-mail linkage before things get any crazier.

*Sooze invites you to check out the Babes Love Baseball preview of the Minnesota Twins, in haiku form. She also confirmed there will be a Lizzy sighting around here in about a month; details will be provided.

*Our guy Linnemann went MacGyver on everyone.

*Sassbottom sent this along with the subject line, “For you.” Just for the record, we never studied abroad.

*Tom Brady’s ex, Bridget Moynihan, talks a little bit about pregnancy.

*And, of course, the Fasola-link! From the ‘matt: Tom Lehrer! He’s the guy who wrote all of the songs for “The Electric Company”, but he first made his mark as a social satirist in the early 1960s. He did a song every week for “That Was The Week That Was”, a precursor to “The Daily Show”. Before that, he was a tenured professor of mathematics at some school in Cambridge, MA.

Coming up: Stu’s Hunt Down and, hopefully one of the greatest RandBall Q&A’s of all time. Fingers crossed. We had a very interesting phone message last night.
