Star Tribune columnist Patrick Reusse joins host Michael Rand for a look back at the weekend in sports, with most of their focus on two very different football games.

Star Tribune columnist Patrick Reusse joins host Michael Rand for a look back at the weekend in sports, and they start with the Vikings' 48-10 win over the Bengals.

The Twins won a game but had their lowest season attendance (non-Covid) in a quarter-century. And Big Ten football got interesting over the weekend.

Plus inauspicious Twins debuts for Mick Abel and Taj Bradley, two of the young pitchers acquired at the trade deadline. And a strong return from Napheesa Collier of the Lynx.
Star Tribune columnist Patrick Reusse joined host Michael Rand for a look back on the weekend in sports. The Twins won Sunday after losing three straight to Detroit as we approach the dog days of a lost season. Will there be any shakeups after the year now that we know the Pohlad family is keeping the team? The Vikings' backup QB situation is a mess, which is good for former Gophers QB Max Brosmer. He has a real chance to make the team. Plus the Lynx keep on winning without Napheesa Collier.
