Blaine casually deadpans, "I've been playing golf for 25 years and I'm continually getting worse." An outdoorsman to the core, he's an avid hunter (pheasant, grouse, duck & deer) and enjoys fishing. Like a good Minnesotan he also enjoys playing hockey, although admits it happens less often than it used to. For a fix he attends games with his family and friends. In his downtime? Blaine enjoys reading fantasy and historical fiction novels.

What is the most extreme thing you have ever done?
Jumping off cliffs and bridges in Duluth.
