Some intrepid reporting (a friend of RandBall sent it to us) has turned up this: Adrian Peterson in a new SportsCenter commercial, with Ragnar as his personal assistant. Pretty funny stuff. Click here and then on the “This is SportsCenter — Personal Assistant” tab on the left.

Vike Me.

How a show like SportsCenter can be so annoying, yet have the world’s best commercials, is beyond me. “He’ll be with you, when he’s with you.” Golden.

Sorry, but no MN athlete Sports Center spot will ever eclipse Garnett and Marbury.

“Allll nude.”

Who is the mascot waiting to see, “Like Me” is it now?

Also, the best KG one is the Nike commercial with Brandi Chastain referring to her shirt celebration.

Ragnar was the parking attendant at my high school back in the day. He was also in charge of the weight room for a little while and had a pool table brought down there in the basement. I beat him the one game we played. Good times.

Ragnar was at my college roommate’s wedding. Crazy to see him in a suit and tie.

For the benefit of roughkat:

Tonka = the new Edina. Discuss.

Tonka = the new Edina

Absolutely. Everyone thought Eden Prairie would be the “new Edina” but I think Minnetonka has just enough old money and spoiled kids to take the reins.

Eden Prairie is all new money and spoiled kids, so all it can be is “the first Eden Prairie” or “What Edina was like before all the rich people got old”

Does Tonka have cake? Cause then I could agree with that sentiment.

I was at the old stompin grounds a few weeks back for the alum CC meet. It amazes me how much money they’ve dropped adding on to the school and expanding the athletic facilities. Tonka families have so much money they buy an ice arena after their son has already graduated. The built a baseball stadium funded (I can only assume) by a bake sale where the powered donuts weren’t powered with sugar. They also have a football stadium that has an artificial turf (like the dome has) and they have a dome to put over said field for the winter. I’m pretty sure that any championship not won results in a coach getting fired. I wish I had been a part of it but sadly none of that existed 11 years ago.

Go Skippers!

For the benefit of myself only:

Renville County West = the new Yellow Medicine East

I think it’s undeniable.

Renville County West = the new Yellow Medicine East

So meth was just introduced in Renville County West?

Yahoo! has finally fixed Mr. Ocho Cinco’s name. It was still wrong as of this morning. NOW my team is ready.

Meth is so five minutes ago. For the cool kids in Sacred Heart and Danube, jenkem is where it’s at.

Why would anyone want to inhale raw sewage?
