It's not getting better.

I believe the first-place Bears just showed the last-place Vikings what they could have been this season with (1) better personnel decisions, (2) better game-planning and (3) better play. The beatdown of the Eagles made the "Blame it all on McCarthy" crowd look even sillier.

Prayers up for Brosmer

I do the big screen/iPad combo more often that I would admit to most people. Whether or not I've ever gone full multiplex by adding a phone is not something I'm willing to share.

Very interested in the Code Gray. Who would have thought?

New Sports Take is out. GOOD: J.J. McCarthy's return and the USA-Canada Rivalry Series starts. BETTER: Gophers men's and women's basketball give fans reasons for optimism. BEST: RED PANDA IS BACK ON HER UNICYCLE PERFORMING IN THE TWIN CITIES THIS WEEKEND!!!

This is what we were expecting from Saturday's football game vs. Michigan State, right?

It's only the third quarter but the Victory Bell has already made an appearance on the @macalestercollege.bsky.social sideline. Too soon?

Was hoping for that too and thought it might happen. My wife's Lynx Pink hair dye has been put away until 2026.

The last three minutes of the first half has been batshit crazy cbasketball by the Lynx, with fans adding a wall of noise which I'm wondering if the broadcast can fully capture. It's the basketball rapture. #WNBA

Seems about right, even if they'd all lose to Pink Pony Club across the street at Target Center.
