2024/10/24

Host Michael Rand spends the bulk of the show with two guests, starting with Star Tribune Vikings writer Ben Goessling. As rumors spread that the Vikings were hoping to trade for Rams QB Matthew Stafford -- someone they will face tonight on Thursday Night Football -- Goessling dug into both the viability and the likelihood of such a move. Verdict: Zero chance, according his source, but that doesn't mean the Vikings won't look to add another piece before the trade deadline.18:00: La Velle E. Neal

2024/10/23

Introduction: Host Michael Rand starts with the Timberwolves' 110-103 loss to the Lakers, a lackluster affair from Minnesota that was troubling even if we keep it in perspective. Julius Randle put up decent numbers but was a clumsy fit in the first half. Mike Conley Jr. might have played his worst game in a Wolves uniform. It's just one of 82, but it was not a good one.10:00: Randy Johnson joins the podcast to break down Big Ten football and set up a big game for the Gophers against Maryland on

Introduction: Host Michael Rand has one wish for Minnesota basketball fans: That they are able to enjoy a grievance-free Timberwolves season. If you are bitterly clinging to a call that didn't go the Wolves' way at the end of Game 2 against Dallas last year while simultaneously feeling grieved about the foul called against the Lynx on Sunday, some perspective might be helpful. 8:00: Star Tribune Vikings writer Andrew Krammer joins Rand for a review of the film after the Vikings' first loss of the

2024/10/21

Star Tribune columnist Patrick Reusse joins host Michael Rand for a look back at the weekend in sports, which for the most part was a Sunday full of heartbreak. The Lynx came within a few seconds of their fifth WNBA championship, but a missed layup by Napheesa Collier and a questionable sequence leading to game-tying free throws by New York led to an overtime win for the Liberty. Reusse dismisses the idea of complaining about the referees and instead says the Lynx should have won big had they made a

On a special standalone episode of Daily Delivery, host Michael Rand and Star Tribune Timberwolves beat writer Chris Hine get you set up for the Wolves season that starts Tuesday against the Lakers. On the agenda: How are the newcomers fitting in? The Wolves had seven players listed among ESPN's top 100. What does that tell us about this year's team? Are they built better for the regular season or for the playoffs? And how do they fit into a crowded Western Conference?

Introduction: Host Michael Rand starts with the Vikings vs. Lions game Sunday, viewing it through the lens of ESPN's Football Power Index. Though Minnesota is the only undefeated team in the NFC, the index says the 4-1 Lions are the NFL's best team. That defines the stakes for Sunday's showdown at U.S Bank Stadium. Plus the baseball playoffs have been both compelling and frustrating. 12:00: Star Tribune Lynx writer Kent Youngblood joins Rand to set up Friday's critical Game 4 of the WNBA Finals at

Introduction: Host Michael Rand starts with the tense and ultimately heartbreaking Lynx loss to the Liberty in Game 3 of the WNBA Finals on Wednesday at Target Center. The Lynx led most of the game, but a late New York rally and huge baskets in the final two minutes turned the momentum and outcome in an 80-77 final. Now the Lynx trail 2-1 in the best-of-5 series with Game 4 set for Friday at Target Center. Plus Rand spends a little time on the Wolves' preseason game and two good signs.11:00: La

Star Tribune columnist Patrick Reusse and host Michael Rand look back at a busy few days in Minnesota sports, starting with Reusse's take on the Twins being for sale. He finds a mediocre fan base in the middle of it all. From there, a bunch of topics are in play: The Lynx coming home tied 1-1 in their WNBA finals series; the Wild having some of the same problems they faced last year already this year; the Wolves having a feisty preseason game in New York; and P.J. Fleck's Gophers suddenly looking to

They had just a 0.8% chance to win the game at one point, but they persevered to pull off one of the greatest wins in Minnesota sports history. 7:00: The Wild earned a 3-2 win over Columbus in their opener Thursday, the kind of victory they will need more of this season. 11:00: La

Minnesota won three out of four against the Liberty this season, but New York seems to think those games weren't representative of how this series will go. Can the underdog Lynx win a fifth WNBA title? Plus drama elsewhere in New York, where the Jets fired their coach.

Introduction: Host Michael Rand starts with a big question about the Vikings. How were all of our predictions (at least so far) wrong about them? Statistical models and the eye test suggested this was maybe a seven-win team. So far, they're 4-0. Rand asked Vikings coach Kevin O'Connell what he saw in this team that the rest of us were missing, and the answer gets to the heart of their success. 10:00: La Velle E.
