I ❤️ Minneapolis

My yearly plea, daylight savings time should take effect at 4pm on Friday and the day called “early happy hour day” and become a beloved national holiday.

Finally, something Bruce Pearl and the ayatollah can bond over

Photographic evidence of the worst billboard ever seen in downtown Minneapolis. And I am not talking about the joke of a live podcast.

If you’ve ever needed proof the NCAA tournament doesn’t need to expand, just take this year’s bubble teams as a prime example.

who thought of springing forward overnight on the weekend? we should turn our clocks forward on Friday afternoon

Losing by 20+ when the opponent shoots 25% from deep is a special kind of terrible.

What if you just had no draft.

Running this one back, since it’s almost time for #MarchMadness 🏀😂

My cruise control went out last weekend, which made for a long 20 hours on the road.
As I finished, I thought, I don't have any road trips planned at the moment, I'll get this fixed whenever.

Whoooo boy am I glad I don't have any road trips planned at the moment.

Talmage?

You know you better than anyone.
But I assure you, if each half mile is a touch faster than the previous half mile, you are going to light a fire under your own ass in the final mile.

Little Tijuana (on Eat Street) has a "sazerac thing" that I have long wanted in a pint glass ...

And never underestimate the psychological boost of negative splits.

Pain simply means you have neither quit nor dropped dead.

A friend quit went California sober a while back but does a malort shot before Wolves games and we dubbed this Chicago Sober. But it feels like Chicago sober means you only drink like 6 days a week

Had a conversation just today that featured, "Anytime you want to go to New Orleans, you just let me know."

A discussion about the SCORE Act has turned into the president complaining about the Supreme Court and saying he's going to make an executive order to change college sports. (Executive orders do not have any power).

Mike Johnson is trying to steer this back to SCORE.

Size of that airport is always a problem.
I pulled it off last year by flying into Mobile and renting a car. Other similar options, as well.

A collection of candles, flowers, and painted stones are set on a tree grate. The stones say things like "Roll on like a river" and "Love" and "Hope"

I'm at the Dropkick Murphys concert.

I'm at the matyr's memorial shrine.

I'm at the combination Dropkick Murphys concert/martyr's shrine.

On Eat Street.

I love my city.

An entire event where dozens of rich people show up to say Democrats, judges and current athletes are the problem and players really need to go back to making no money. Why are we even acting as if this is a real attempt at solutions?

You can just leave men alone to make our own fun.

Might not come back alive, but we'll have a blast.

lol fuck yeah

I cannot overstate how incredibly stupid you are if you believe, even for one second, that “Claude” has either consciousness or anxiety

Brett Yormark, a historically notable run

This is an Avengers-level mascot meetup.

Such demanding standards

If this rivalry can't stand, the sport can't stand
