We are rolling into Round 3 of the 2026 NFL Draft, and given what happened just a little bit ago, it seems that this could be a pretty eventful round for the Minnesota Vikings. Following their trade of Jonathan Greenard to the Philadelphia Eagles, the Vikings now have three selections in this third round. They […]
The Philadelphia Eagles had just selected Vanderbilt tight end Eli Stowers when the news was announced that the team has made a trade with the Minnesota Vikings for edge rusher Jonathan Greenard. The move was widely anticipated since the early days of free agency, but things finally happened on Day 2 of the draft. Philadelphia […]
The trade that we were all waiting to see happen finally happened and. . .well, it doesn’t look like terribly good value for the Minnesota Vikings, at least on the surface. The Vikings have traded edge rusher Jonathan Greenard to the Philadelphia Eagles. The deal sees Greenard and a seventh-round pick in this year’s draft, […]
The Minnesota Vikings are heading into the draft without a general manager following the firing of Kwesi Adofo-Mensah, with interim general manager Rob Brzezinski set to lead the team through the 2026 NFL Draft. Drafting has been a big question mark for the Vikings in recent years, especially in the middle rounds. This past offseason, […]
The Minnesota Vikings have made another selection in the 2026 NFL Draft, and with this pick, they have kept their attention on the defensive side of the football. With the 51st pick in the 2026 NFL Draft, the Vikings have selected linebacker Jake Golday from the University of Cincinnati. Golday started his college career at […]
The Minnesota Vikings are, once again, on the board in the 2026 NFL Draft, and. . .they’ve decided they’d like to wait a little bit longer by making a trade. The trade is between the Vikings and the Carolina Panthers. The Vikings have sent the 49th overall pick and the 196th overall selection, which is […]
The revolution is over. Almost every team in the NHL has embraced the practice of putting four forwards on the power play. Statistically, it's the best bet. Forwards almost always have more shooting talent than defensemen, and getting pucks down low is a much better play than having a defenseman roc...
The Minnesota Wild are down 1-2 in the series against the Dallas Stars in the 1st-round of the Stanley Cup playoffs. Without forward Mats Zuccarello, the team loses a scoring threat and a key piece in the lineup. He's only played 1 game this series and produced three points (three assists), which is what the Wild need against Peter DeBoer's Dallas Stars. Zuccarello caught a Tyler Myers elbow to the face on April 18th, which is what caused him to be taken out of the lineup.&n...

Radio: Sandwiches will be marrying Kris Atteberry this fall Today’s Rays starter is Drew Rasmussen, and he is Darn Good. He’d thrown a total of 32.1 so-so innings of relief for the Brewers when they traded him for SS Willy […]
The Minnesota Wild came away from Game 3 with a heartbreaking loss, but the final score only tells part of the story. The game had the kind of intensity you expect in the playoffs, yet it also had a growing sense that the officials were letting too much go in one direction. Dallas managed to survive...
It's hard to remember back to October and November. Back before the playoffs, before the Quinn Hughes trade, before Jesper Wallstedt broke out as a season savior, and when Marco Rossi and Zeev Buium roamed the ice. But if you go all the way back, you'll see a team that looks kind of like they do now...
When I first discovered that the Minnesota Vikings picked Caleb Banks with the 18th pick, I was completely surprised. My first thought was what a poor value it was for the Vikings at that point in the draft- Banks was expected to go in the second round and there really wasn’t any buzz about him […]
In Thursday night’s first round of the 2026 NFL Draft, the Minnesota Vikings addressed one of their biggest needs with one of the Draft’s biggest players, selecting Florida defensive tackle Caleb Banks with the 18th overall pick. Now, as we move into Day 2 of this year’s selection meeting, it’s time to focus on which […]
Jaden McDaniels made his thoughts incredibly clear after the Minnesota Timberwolves won Game 2 over the Denver Nuggets. “Go at Jokic, Jamal, all the bad defenders. Tim Hardaway, Cam Johnson, Aaron Gordon, the whole team. Like, just go at them.” When asked to clarify, McDaniels doubled down: “Yeah, they’re all bad defenders.” Those comments, not surprisingly, […]
Round 1 of the 2026 NFL Draft is officially in the books, but there is still plenty of action to be had for this year’s selection meeting as we await the start of Night 2. Tonight we’ll get to see Rounds 2 and 3 of this year’s Draft, and this is a portion of the […]
Meet the Mets It wasn’t the sharpest game of baseball, but the Mets won their second-straight game by beating the Twins 10-8. Choose your recap: Amazin’ Avenue, MLB.com, Newsday, New York Daily News, New York Post Before the game, the Mets got bad news, as Francisco Lindor is expected to miss significant time because of […]
That's Wild
The major story coming out of Game 3 against the Dallas Stars was the Minnesota Wild's special teams failing them when they needed to get the save. Both the power play could've scored more goals and the penalty kill could've prevented some. [Pioneer Press]

“Now he’s gotta back it up,” Chris Finch said as he sat at the pregame podium before game three. A clear challenge to his two-way trash-talking wing Jaden McDaniels, to show up after calling every single Denver Nuggets rotation player by name as a bad defender, the stage was set for the Wolves’ best perimeter […]
We all know that it’s, generally, fruitless to try to “grade” a draft or a draft choice before a player or a draft class ever sets foot onto an NFL field. However, those grades also seem to be pretty popular with a lot of folks and they do generate a lot of discussion, even though […]
Brad Underwood is hitting the road this week with two of his staffers. But it’s not a recruiting trip. Illinois’ head coach visited Minnesota on Thursday ahead of Game 3 of the NBA playoffs between the Timberwolves and Nuggets. Underwood posted a photo of him with former Illini star Ayo Dosunmu and two Illini staffers […]
It wasn’t pretty, but the Mets managed to win another game, topping the Twins in their series finale 10-8. Christian Scott was poor and the bullpen coughed a lead up late, but the Mets offense – largely dormant for the past three weeks – finally woke up and scored enough to cover for the poor […]
There were Twins littered on the bases all night, but as has been the case this series, they just couldn’t seem to find the one key hit to put up a crooked number. Until Ryan Jeffers came up with the bases juiced. But I’m getting ahead of myself. Making his first start after two years […]
