They Call Him "Spike"...

They call him "Spike." There is probably an interesting story behind that. We wish we knew what it is.

The "him" to which we refer is Duane Millslagle. He's 67, a former UMD professor whose field of expertise was Motor Behavior.

Dr. Millslagle is the author a sciency book called "Motor Development and Sports Skills Clinic." We found the paperback version on Amazon.com. It cost, we're not making this up, $373.27.

It must be a really good book, huh? We didn't buy it.

 

Spike now lives in Savage, Minnesota, and as most of you know, is a highly accomplished triathlete. Last season he picked up impressive AG victories at Minneapolis Sprint and Lake Minnetonka....
