It’s hard to stay away from the stories that are very much in line with what you yourself are chasing. As a broadcaster and hockey writer, it’s those stories of individuals who have found triumphs in my industry that I often gravitate towards. The career and life of colour commentator John Garrett s...

Before things tip off, let’s take a look at the 56 voters and their predictions on the series in… Canis Pulsus Vol. 49 – Playoff Round 2 Predictions Results (Note: Canis Pulsus Vol. 49 data was collected through 5/4) What will be […]
The Twins managed to finish the week with a win, splitting a four-game series with the reigning AL Pennant winner, the Toronto Blue Jays. Unfortunately, both Joe Ryan, Cole Sands, Emmanuel Rodriguez, and Walker Jenkins were the new additions to the injury report this week. There had been encouraging signs from the oft-injured Jenkins, as […]
The Minnesota Vikings 2026 draft class is here — and if you’re already fitting rookies for gold jackets, pump the brakes. On this week’s episode of Two Old Bloggers, Vikings First & SKOL’s Darren Campbell and Dave Stefano deliver an unfiltered breakdown of all nine rookies, a candid look at the ongoing GM search, and […]
It’s been seven days since the Spurs vanquished the Portland Trail Blazers in Round 1 of the 2026 NBA Playoffs, and now, it’s finally gameday again. For Round 2, the Spurs face a Minnesota Timberwolves squad whose size gave them plenty of trouble in the regular season (as well as Nikola Jokic in Round 1) […]
Minnesota Timberwolves at San Antonio SpursDate: May 4th, 2026Time: 8:30 PM CDTLocation: Frost Bank CenterTelevision Coverage: Peacock, NBS Sports Network After vanquishing the Denver Nuggets for the second time in three postseasons, the Minnesota Timberwolves now find themselves staring at an entirely different kind of monster. That’s not hyperbole. That’s just what happens when the […]
That's Wild Well, that was certainly a hockey game. The Minnesota Wild come back from multiple multi-goal deficits but it was not enough as the Colorado Avalanche just kept pouring it on to win Game 1 of the second round by a score of 9-6. It is almost inconceivable to think of a team that w...
While the Eastern Conference gave us three game sevens in round one, the West gave us no such drama. Oklahoma City and San Antonio moved on with ease, and Los Angeles and Minnesota won their game sixes by sizeable margins. Unfortunately for the viewer, the Lakers and Timberwolves are missing their best players as they […]
After a convincing 4-1 defeat of the Portland Trail Blazers in round one, the San Antonio Spurs will face a familiar foe in the Minnesota Timberwolves. The Wolves are red hot, coming off a 3-2 victory over the Denver Nuggets, despite missing several key rotation players. The series is set to be a defensive, physical […]
A week after sweeping the LA Kings, the Colorado Avalanche were back in action hosting the Minnesota Wild in a pivotal second round opening matchup. And how this game unfolded didn’t disappoint those high expectations with 14 different goal scorers including five defenseman to arrive at the 9-6 win for the Avalanche. The Game Minnesota […]
Iowa Cubs The Iowa Cubs were cast out by the St. Paul Saints (Twins), 8-7. Jordan Wicks had a rough start in a rehab assignment. He took the loss after giving up six runs on nine hits over 3.2 innings. The positive news is that he struck out four and walked just one and 50 […]
The Spurs will host the Timberwolves in Game 1 of the Western Conference semifinals on Monday as heavy favorites despite the uncertainty surrounding Anthony Edwards’ status. Even if the injured superstar guard returns, he’ll likely be limited by two knee injuries, so San Antonio is expected to win this series, as long as they play […]
Anthony Edwards might not miss much of the Timberwolves’ series against the Spurs, per reports. He had been making progress and was initially likely to suit up in Game 3 or Game 4, according to ESPN’s Sham Charania. Apparently, his return could come earlier than that, as he has been listed as questionable for Game […]
Blue Jays 3 Twins 4 That was irritating. Joe Ryan left the game with a sore elbow after walking the second batter and we had to think we had a good chance. But no. Trey Yesavage wasn’t good, but then only gave up one run. In four innings he allowed five hits, three walks and […]
The Twins sent Joe Ryan to the bump this morning—the Peacock MLB Sunday Wakeup special—hoping for a series split. He lasted all of two batters before leaving with an undisclosed injury. It would be an unexpected bullpen game featuring the worst pen in baseball. My thoughts at the exact moment: how many innings will Kody […]
Round two of the NBA playoffs starts tomorrow, and the Minnesota Timberwolves are once again the underdogs. Whether that’s rightfully so or just another time the public narrative is disrespecting the Wolves, we’ll find out starting Monday night. Even though this is on short notice, there’s still time to hear from you and give you […]
Game four of four. A win would mean a series win. And a win would bring us back to .500 for the first time since April 4th. They are 6-2 over the last 8 games. And it is a Trey Yesavage start. 5.1 shutout innings in his first start. The Jays made some minor league […]
First Chuck: 11:45 AM CDT (new anthem each week!) The Tube: NBCSN/Peacock The Dial: Treasure Island Baseball Network Spies ‘R Us: Bluebird Banter A few weeks ago, the Toronto Blue Jays & Minnesota Twins clashed in a tight series that saw MN quite unexpectedly take two-of-three from the defending champs. Film fans will know that […]
Jonas Brodin’s injury is a real problem for the Minnesota Wild. They will be without one of the league's most reliable shutdown defensemen at exactly the wrong time. He’s reportedly day-to-day, and he could miss the start of the second-round series and could be out for 6 to 8 weeks, depending on how...
It took a while, but we finally have a picture of what the second round of the NHL playoffs will look like (basically), and the Colorado Avalanche and Minnesota Wild are all set to begin the second round. This much-anticipated showdown has the talent of a Western Conference Final, with both sides icing some of […]
The Yankees offense keeps on rolling, scoring nine in a rout of the Orioles to make it 16 runs scored in the first two games of the series. The starting rotation also continues to shine, Will Warren and Ryan Weathers both giving up just one earned run to Baltimore respectively across play on Friday and […]
Ah, yes, it’s the Spurs-Wolves second-round clash that everyone anticipated! No one around here penciled in a Spurs-Nuggets tilt, and there’s also no evidence of yours truly crashing out following San Antonio’s final regular-season loss to Denver. Now that we have our matchup set, it’s time to dive into some stylistic battles that could take […]
The best teams in the NHL tend to win games in multiple ways. You can't choose who you match up against in the playoffs. Maybe you're going up against a fast team like the Edmonton Oilers. You might wind up grinding out a series with a physical (or dirty!) team like the Florida Panthers. Withstandin...
We ought to have a boilerplate template for 2026 Twins recaps, because it feels like every time the Twins lose this season, it’s for exactly the same reasons as I am about to describe. Another encouraging start from a young arm was emphatically erased by possibly the most predictably incompetent bullpen you’ve ever seen in […]
