Introduction: Host Michael Rand has one wish for Minnesota basketball fans: That they are able to enjoy a grievance-free Timberwolves season. If you are bitterly clinging to a call that didn’t go the Wolves’ way at the end of Game 2 against Dallas last year while simultaneously feeling grieved about the foul called against the Lynx on Sunday, some perspective might be helpful.

8:00: Star Tribune Vikings writer Andrew Krammer joins Rand for a review of the film after the Vikings’ first loss of the season. Minnesota made a lot of big plays but not enough little ones. Sam Darnold missed some throws and the defense was burned for touchdowns on four straight Detroit possessions.

30:00: Vikings poetry always soothes the soul.

44:00: The Wild are rolling, but the schedule gets tougher.
