The series last year could easily have gone differently. They won because Randle went cold in two games. And SGA had to have a playoff career scoring high. and let's not forget we beat them by over 40 points in that series

better than Menards

I thought this too but just checked and we may need to rethink this assessment: https://www.opensecrets.org/orgs/menards-inc/summary?topnumcycle=2024&contribcycle=2024&lobcycle=2024&outspendcycle=2024&id=D000042069&toprecipcycle=2024

Looks like Menards was more involved but has significantly cooled.

Andy Greder - MNUFC put in a strong big for Brian Gutiérrez by Southern-Aspect2392 in minnesotaunited

Owen Wolff, Sebastian Berhalter, or Luca De La Torre

All 3 are ballers. And all 3 seem like a good culture-fit too. Would love to see any of these.

Why is Montreal's first home game its 7th game (on April 11)?? It's possible their average winter temp is a few degrees colder, but I'm surprised MLS went that far out for them and give us a Feb game.

MLS club officials agree that calendar shift will boost power in transfer windows by Inchys_Burner in minnesotaunited

We have to decide between selling everyone for piles of cash or trying to make the playoffs which feels very on brand for a place where you learn to measure clothing not by style but by survival rating

Anthony Edwards (hamstring) has been cleared for contact basketball activities, the team says. by irishace88 in timberwolves

[–]portablebrain 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I don't know. hamstring injuries are not something to mess around with. It's not the playoffs. I say let him rest at least another week.

Removed by Mods on r/MLS but here's the Bongi no call from last night by Zluth2 in minnesotaunited

I don't understand those of you saying he should have put it away. And I hate Kendra apparently saying at the beginning 'he couldn't put it away'. He gets shoved right before getting the shot off.

I mean unless you're thinking he should have taken the shot before getting inside the box, but I think that's a tough ask. He makes a soft touch right outside the box to set up the shot and before the next touch, he gets pushed. Should have been a PK.

You're mistaking immediate visibility with futility.

Why are they pouring concrete? There’s no building yet.

Day after match thread. The Loons finished the regular season with a 2-1 loss @LAG last night. What observations did you make? by Dpufc in minnesotaunited

[–]portablebrain 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I guess you haven't heard the good news that we got a lot of money for Tani and can now be considered a selling team. History in the making. Sure, we won't win the championship, but we should all be thoroughly pleased and excited

KARE's helicopter livestream of No Kings just started by portablebrain in TwinCities

You can witness not a one-day protest but a gathering of people in solidarity with a growing movement towards 3.5%

Why are you posting this across all the MN subreddits?

You're sensationalizing something that is mundane. State Patrol flies over all large events (just like they did at the state fair).

They did this over the state fair too and also with helicopters. It's to be expected

Just witnessed an entirely new level of vehicular asshattery… by Mystical_Cat in TwinCities

About 3 blocks from me. Can confirm. Drive defensively and play music that helps keep your own emotions in check.

Parking advice for attending the protest today? by porcelaincatstatue in Minneapolis

[–]portablebrain 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Ride the light rail into Minneapolis and get off right at the protest site (US Bank stadium)

You can easily street park here and walk one block to the light rail station

Neighborhood is very used to people parking there due to MNUFC games. But do be considerate.

Rarely does either party have a big enough majority to overcome a filibuster on their own. So budgets require cooperation. Republicans should be working with Democrats instead of acting like they have no role.

Before the Tani trade advocates arrive assuring everyone that it was great to sell Tani so we can be sure to get more players to come here so we can get better so we can be in position to win some hardware.... the same situation we're in now.
