    All Things 2025 Tour de France

    For a moment it looked like Onley was going to move past Lipowitz, but now the four best in this tour are in a row. Arensman is still 25 seconds ahead with 2 and a half miles to go. Can the yellow group catch him?

    All Things 2025 Minnesota Twins In-Season Thread

    Not me. The click bait is tiresome as these writers do lazy journalism. In the past week people have speculated about Jax going to a handful of teams. But, for speculation sake, how do you think Jax blowing the save, yesterday, hurts his chances of being picked up by the Dodgers?

    Why put this click bait here if Jax has not been traded to the Mets?

    All Things 2025 Tour de France

    My legs were aching just watching today's ride. This ride was just ridiculous. Ben O'Connor was fantastic, but Onley and Roglic also made some noise. It will be interesting to see if Lipowitz can hold that third spot into Paris.

    CBS is ending ‘The Late Show with Stephen Colbert’ next year

    I have tried to watch Colbert...and Kimmel, but I just didn't find them very funny. I liked Conan and I can generally tolerate Fallon. Is it the host or the writers that generate the laughs? I find political jokes pretty cheap and not funny so maybe it's just lazy writers that I don't like. In...

    The tradable guys are those on expiring contracts like Bader, Vazquez and France. The next level up would be guys like Jax, Correa, and Castro. There is some talent in the minors so if we are not going to make a playoff run, then it's time for those kids to audition.

    All things biking.

    I got in about 12 miles this morning before taking cover due to a pop-up thunderstorm that I didn't see on the radar until the rain came in buckets. At first I thought there might be hail, which is why I immediately ducked into a park and found an awning to try salvage some dryness. After about...

    All Things 2025 Tour de France

    Ben Healy with a surprising ride today. I always like watching the ride up Mont Ventoux. The average grade for the incline is 8% and the climb is for nearly 9 miles. No doubt the nation of France is celebrating today's stage winner.

    $200: the final straw for this Gopher alum & lifelong fan

    Just told my wife that this weekend on a 20 mile bike ride. She asked if there was any downhill and I told her it was uphill both ways. ...now I gotta buy her an ebike! Come on lottery!

    Taylor and Lindsey catching walleyes and bass

    After he retired, Bobby Knight used to come up to northeast Minnesota and fish for largemouth bass. It's a not so big secret that the lakes north of the Range are great bass fishing lakes. Floating the flats with a mepps spinner and catching 2-4 lb bass while they jump on being reeled in, there...

    $200: the final straw for this Gopher alum & lifelong fan

    I had to take out loans as well, but I never took the max. I always looked at total cost in connection with what I was earning and then took the minimal to cover. It was a very tight margin.

    Taylor and Lindsey catching walleyes and bass

    I hated catching northerns. Slimy snakes, full of bones, and generally good for nothing. 🤔😅 Give me bass, walleye, and crappies. But, I did have a daredevil in the box.

    $200: the final straw for this Gopher alum & lifelong fan

    They may be paying it out of their pocket. Every penny I paid for my education came out of my own pocket, not my parents. I worked a minimum of 20 hour weeks while doing 16 plus credits per semester. I would have resented paying another kids beer money while I worked just to try attend.

    Taylor and Lindsey catching walleyes and bass

    Only two lures I ever use are a Rapala and a Mepps spinner. All other lures are a waste of money. 😏
