    If you thought the pain train stopped at Part 1, well, think again! In this highly anticipated follow-up episode, we dive deeper into the realm of Minnesota sports misery with even more fervor and frustration. In Part 2, our virtual guest Alex returns to commiserate with us about the ongoing saga of Minnesota's professional sports teams. With the Timberwolves making waves in the regular season, the tantalizing question looms: Could this finally be the year they break the curse and bring home the trophy? And speaking of rising stars, is Anthony Edwards destined to be the next Michael Jordan, or are we setting ourselves up for yet another disappointment? But wait, there's more! We turn our attention to the gridiron, pondering whether the Vikings can salvage their fortunes through the draft after yet another lackluster season. And let's not forget about the Twins, whose prospects seem dimmer than ever thanks to payroll cuts and Pohlad-induced woes. Join us as we navigate the murky waters of Minnesota sports, where hope springs eternal but heartbreak seems inevitable. Tune in for all the despair, delusion, and dashed dreams you can handle, right here on Mediocre From Minnesota!
