According to CJ, after being low-balled (her word choice) by KARE 11 Sven has been approached by WCCO to replace this town's other well known and vertically challenged meteorologist.

So, she heard some "hot gossip" and then confirmed it wasn't true, and still felt compelled to write about it? Grote, why do you read that shit?

ang, as I'm sure Jeremy will confirm...when you google "Sven" and "balled" and get a result, you publish it regardless of the source.

I'm surprised there are no afterglide results in there.

Actually, in a totally unofficial way, having absolutely nothing to do with any of this, I love Sven on the air, and it would completely rock to have him on our morning show.

Anyone else find it amusing that Sven shows up on the cover of Lavender every year and they don't do as much as a interview with him? or point out that the guy is gayer that christmas at bloomingdales?

he's a weather guy. nobody really cares what he has to say beyond the dew point and barometric pressure. he just needs to look pretty and be right ~12% of the time.

Isn't the fact that he's on the cover a big enough pointer?

So why exactly would Sven need to declare his sexuality?

It's not a secret that he is a pocket-gay. One of my friend's exes went on a few dates with him.

Sven got to get paid, son.
