Grand Forks Herald column: Confessions of a Gopher

[BleedGopher]

per the Grand Forks Herald:

You may not want to hear this, but I'm going to say it anyway.

As a journalist, I value transparency. It's a central principle that guides my day-to-day life.

That's why I must confess this sin to you, dear readers, no matter how much harm it might bring to me professionally or personally.

I am a Gopher. A golden one, to be exact.

Minnesota, hats off to thee. To thy colors true we shall ever be. Go Gophers.

Neat stuff! Thanks for the link. I can relate, somewhat. Lived and worked "behind enemy lines" in Madison for most of my adult life. Learned to be knowledgeable and (mostly) respectful of the local teams while never hiding my MN allegiance. Got along just fine with folks there. Did that for 25 years before moving south a few years ago.
