Discussed: Glen Taylor finally shows us what KG's seen all alongWhat disease will the Wolves get before the playoffsThe Twins refuse to changeThe Vikings should pick as many players as they canSuper Bowl 27You know! All the big topics! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

We turned in our Super Famous Annual High School Hockey Preview right at deadline. Come for the matchups, stay for the facts. We never said they were fun. Mentioned: Bock Fest, arson, Jesse James, white flight, Egypt, CEO payouts, Edina notable residents, and what the word Mahtomedhi means in Dakota. We are all shocked to our core but choosing to believe it. Also another Top 6 and the return of our old friend audio problems near the end. We are so back. Hosted on Acast. See...

Brand new year, same old us. Covered: Vikings QB options this offseason, NFL playoff teams rooting interest, Wolves/Wild, how to pronounce schadenfreude, a Top 6 and New Year’s resolutions.  Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Happy New Year! Jon and CF are back, the Chopped Liver edition of the podcast, to talk about the things that Brandon and Stu won't talk about. Chiefly: The NHL has a referee problem on their hands, and they're not doing anything about itThe Vikings are starting the wrong disaster at quarterbackWe knew the Twins offseason was going to be bad, but I don't think we understood just how bad If you want to know what kind of episode this was: this started with 15 minutes of tangents before we ever...

The whole gang is back as Jon ranks his most hopeless local teams in order. Was this a lazy way to generate content or a strategic move from Brox to get to brag on the Wolves for once? Yes and yes. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The Wolves are amazing, the Vikings are a model of consistency, Chicken is angry, Stu is drunk. Two things that make no sense combined with two that do, so at the end of the day we're back to even and all is right in the world. Burger Dive. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

On this show, Stu and Chicken and Jon discuss what it's like to actually enjoy watching the Minnesota Vikings; shrug resignedly about the Minnesota Wild; react in real-time to the Timberwolves getting into a brawl in Golden State; and rant explosively about college football. Plus, Stu has a Top 6 that's expressly designed simply to just make Chicken laugh. Join us! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The Wolves should be good, the Vikings keep winning, the Gophers beat Iowa, Brox is getting a garage heater and yet we still find things to complain about. Where there's a will there's a way. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Just in time for the Twins to return to the playoffs, Jon, Stu, and CF review our famous bro and turd predictions for 2023. This, of course, means that we also made our predictions for the Twins' series against Toronto (hint: 0-16) and also discuss our favorite Canadian provinces, as you do. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Whoa hey it's our FAMOUS Vikings season preview episode. We cover it all: who's in, who's out, bros, turds, and wins. Then a few minutes on the Twins and Gophers at the end for good measure. Real, real quality content. We're all about the 'tent. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

WARNING: This episode is only for the Gopher football sickos. Jon is joined by his brother Dave and their fellow Gopher football nerd Shimul, and they run down the state of Gopher football, including an absolutely enormous amount of Remembering Gopher Football Guys. They go position by position with the team and week by week with the schedule, and for some reason former defensive coordinator Robb Smith keeps coming up, and if you don't remember Robb Smith then I'm not sure you'll enjoy this...

One of our hosts got kicked out of a youth baseball game, to the delight of the other hosts. Then we talk State Fair, posting strat, the Montgomery dock brawl, the Twins, and making sure we check our smoke alarms before this upcoming Wolves season. We are so back. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Quick break from our summer vacation to talk NHL and NBA drafts, decide who's at fault for this Twins season (it's everyone), and recommend drinking a cabin beer over the weekend. Also we do a fun bit about Dahmer and use the word "lumbering" like 6 times for some reason. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Jon, B and Chicken rant about the Twins, half-heartedly argue about lotteries being fixed, rank parking lot beers and determine our Minneapolis mayoral candidacy positions. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Stu and Jon talk through the crimes of Phil Cuzzi, the Loons' ongoing Emanuel Reynoso saga, and the geographic issues that the NHL won't talk about it. Plus, Stu's eyes glaze over as Jon talks about the NBA's silly in-season tournament, the population of San Antonio is discussed, and Stu's Top 6 brings back the great movies of 1998. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The final episode of the Sportive "Making Up For Lost Time" trilogy is here. Jon and Brandon sit to, finally, discuss the end of the Timberwolves season, talk about what comes next, and get pre-furious about the Lore/A-Rod ownership era. Plus: An informative discussion of age-appropriate family vacations. Episode rating: ten cabin beers! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

It's part two of our epic three-night podcast residency. This time, Stu joins Jon to talk about the Vikings draft and to complain, or as the case may be NOT complain, about the current state of the Twins. Plus: the Top 6 Patio Beers, an inarguable ranking. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

After a long hiatus, we finally stopped trying to schedule the podcast and started just recording with whoever was available. This time, Jon and Chiken get together for a hockey-centric podcast. We kick dirt on the Wild season that was, talk about why the Wild might be screwed in the future, and read some Bill Guerin quotes to see if they make us mad... then go on to make fun of the rest of the Stanley Cup playoffs and the NHL either fixing or not fixing the draft lottery. But it's still too...

Good times, just real good times all around. We (1:00) celebrate a big Gopher hockey win, (28:30) preview the Twins season including bros & turds, (55:00) somehow avoid a tantrum over the cursed Wolves season, and end with what Jon deemed the best Top 6 ever. He was hopped up on yardstick beers but he might be right. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Jon, B and a few minutes of Chicken talk drinking and the Wild, then play a rousing game of “Which Wolves player would this season be?” which you will understand when you hear it (no you won’t). Then we get all old man on March Madness and end with some dad life. Real good times.  Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Items: (2:00) The Wild’s goalie issues, (31:00) Wolves predictions for the rest of the season and whether or not to trade KAT, (54:00) Stu’s increasingly insane Top 6 list, (1:01:00) Dadvice for out-of-town tournament parenting/partying strategies.

This week we (1:00) explore our feelings on the Correa signing, (23:00) preview the Vikings/Giants tilt, (45:00) check in on the Wild, Wolves and Loons, and then (1:10:00) Stu delivers a filthy, disgusting and outright shocking Top 6 list. Will we ever recover enough to record another show? Only time will tell.  Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Jon, B and Chicken are BACK. Topics: (2:00) if this Vikings seasons ends with a whimper, was it still a success?
