Impact of Nishioka’s addition to Twins would be tough to predict
I blogged last week about the Minnesota Twins being awarded exclusive negotiating rights with Japanese middle infielder Tsuyoshi Nishioka. I mentioned in that post how it was unusual to see a Midwest team win the bidding, since seemingly the majority … Continue reading
Gophers depth to be tested, plus NFL picks

Packers fans get one last look … maybe? … at Favre, plus NFL picks
The Minnesota Vikings-Green Bay Packers game might not be drawing quite the headlines that it did, say, a year ago. But it’s still Vikings-Packers, and once again, Brett Favre is playing in it. It’s been a difficult season for Favre. … Continue reading
