FIVE MEMORABLE GUESTS FROM THE FIRST YEAR
Daily Delivery: Favorite interviews and well-worn subjects
A look back at one year of the Star Tribune's daily sports podcast.
2 Ryan Hartman: The Wild forward, in the midst of arguably the best season of his career, shared a lot of great insights into his journey to the NHL.
3 Justin Jefferson: The Vikings wide receiver joined the show during the offseason after his impressive rookie year and showed off the confidence that makes him great.
4 Rod Carew: Talking about hitting with a Baseball Hall of Famer is always a treat.
5 Cheryl Reeve: The Lynx coach/GM is consistently one of the most insightful and thoughtful interview subjects in this market.
FIVE SUBJECTS WE COULDN'T STOP TALKING ABOUT
1. Is Kirk Cousins going to get traded? I talked about it nonstop last offseason. I'm going to do it again this year. I can't get enough.
2. All things Aaron Rodgers. From his offseason drama to his in-season drama, the Packers QB was a go-to subject rivaled only by the Vikings' QB.
3. Are the Wolves going to trade for Ben Simmons? Spoiler alert: No (at least not yet).
4. Is Mike Zimmer's job in jeopardy? Spoiler alert: Yes.
5. What's wrong with the Twins? As it turns out, I could have done a very short single episode and simply said, "They are not very good."
Saturday’s game against Dallas presents an opportunity to indicate the team won’t repeat the flop in division games that wrecked last season.
