Wilderness Walk: Trying to Relax

Brad Rempel-USA TODAY Sports

Between the Wild's terrible play the last few days weeks several months and the news that Parise has been playing for months on a herniated disc, I'm having a tough time staying calm.

What a fiasco. What a clownshow. I'm tempted to have the music be "Send in the clowns" solely because the last line is "don't bother, they're here." Disastrous, on every level. Zach, for not sitting himself. Yeo and Torchetti for not sitting him. Fletcher for not protecting the player that's signed till the gosh-durn apocalypse. Leipold for not protecting his monetary investment.

Ridiculous.

Instead, I offer some advice for myself as well as everyone else. I'm not  a huge fan of hip hop or rap, but this is utter brilliance.
