What sports or teams do you enjoy following during the year? I enjoy following any Minnesota pro teams. My favorites to watch are the Vikings and Timberwolves. What methods do you use to follow them that fit in with your farming schedule? Typically, my family and I watch them together on TV. Sometimes, during harvest or other busy times, I listen on the radio.
