Former Wild also-ran Dany Heatly off to Germany

12 innings. Sheesh. Twins needed that one.

Wow - I didn't realize Texas had caught Houston! Guess I wasn't paying enough attention to the West standings, just looking at who was right in front of the Twins for the WC before the games last night.

Thought they might pull it off last night, but no such luck. Texas won, too

Article I read earlier left that one out :/ I now read the OP article and it is mentioned there.

Game was so sloppy and poorly played, that I went to bed at halftime. Doesn't appear it got any better, either...

Notice he didn't register for Sundogs? And tried but was denied for Rough Riders? Tells me the Sioux angle is BS, and he's just trying to force Sundogs on the school.

This reflects my opinion very well. UND started OK (not great, but OK) and was a fumble from being up 28-0. After that, the youngsters started to look ahead to this week. The coaches seemed to experiment a little with personnel. I'm just happy they held on.

Watched the Force vs. Austria Red Bulls on Friday night. Largely a forgettable game (pre-season, huuuuuge roster, etc), but Cakebread had the eventual game winner with a nice move on a semi-break. Force won 4-2. Very few returning players this year, and several of them didn't suit up. Lots of NAHL guys on the ice, so maybe we'll find a commit or two for the 2017-18 season?

I believe I saw yesterday that Poolman will wear an A for the Vees

Interesting. I priced a couple places in the warehouse district this summer, and the rents for the ones with the pool and everything were about $2,000 a month, give or take $100. I must've been looking at the elitist stuff, lol!

at 9:30 AM? Residual from last night, or getting a jump on the day? That dumbasz.

I hate the Pats, and still have to agree with what you said. And, no, I don't have Brady on my fantasy football team, either

Beating KC last night was a biggie - hope they can keep it up!

Where he belongs, yes. Get called up, no. I can think of one (1!) RB off a practice squad last year to see significant playing time.

Decisions, decisions. I'm on the "Anything but Sundogs" side, so now it becomes a question of voting for my favorite, or voting where I think the most support lies, just to make sure it's not Sundogs. If we somehow got into a 20.5%, 20.5%, 20.0%, 20.0%, 19.0% split, and those two 20.5% were Sundogs and Nodaks... Just the idea sends shivers down my spine!

I don't know that they have a realistic shot at the playoffs this season - You can't have those 2 week long let downs, and can't get swept by anyone, even the Yankees, if you're going to be a contender - but I really like the progress I'm seeing from these guys. Yesterday's tying run was pure, flat out, hustle. The winning run came from mistakes by Baltimore, but those were mistakes the Twins aren't making right now. Very encouraging for staying competitive down the stretch and for setting up for 2016.

Anything that helps to the south and takes some pressure off 32nd Ave has to be explored. The gap between the Thompson exit and 32nd is far too long to hope either could feed the development, and 32nd is already a complete mess (esp frustrating if you know where you're going, since half the other drivers don't seem to...)

Sounds like you and I would get along real well! Well, except for your last line

I would write that to anyone - there are too many idiots on both sides of the aisle. I'm thoroughly confused by people who vote straight down the line. Honestly, I can't believe a single person would vote for some of these candidates, regardless of party affiliation. It's almost like, "You've got a nut! What do you mean we've got one, too? Our nut isn't as nuts as your nut!"

If you guys let a party, rather than quality of the person, determine who you vote for... I can't even... SMH. [/POLITICS]

The real question is; Why did they leave The Force? They were closer to home, but not at home. The USHL is feeding the NCAA like a it's their farm clubs. Eades was coming in to coach. The pieces were in place, and then they bolted.

Sano didn't come in with the fanfare of, say, Buxton, but I think he's looked the most MLB ready of the youngsters. That's not to take anything away from the others, but he just appears more prepared.

Watching last night's game, and the Twins lead 4-1 going into the bottom of the inning (7, I think?). Then, the perfect storm happens. When the relief pitcher you barely know walks the guy to load the bases, you know he's exiting. They bring in a Rule 5 pickup no one knows. Who's coming up with bases loaded? A-Rod. Who else would it be? The Twins are as cursed against the Yankees as The Wild are vs the Blackhawks. SMH. Second pitch, gone. Game may as well end right there.

Made the switch in West Fargo a few years ago. I had been with CableOne since they had come to town, and don't miss them one little bit... There is no downside other than the additional connection box somewhere on your block. MidCo Sports is worth it all by itself (watch Through These Doors and the coaches shows, some live games and game replays, etc), and the extended sports package is cheap.
