Fan in the Stands with The I-man

Connor and Nate join to pick the playoff slates and give their insights and analysis as to what we can expect from our Minnesota teams. How far can we go? 

Geof and Nate are back for more punishm...fun. Yeah, fun. That's totally what we meant... We're talking Wild expectations, Twins performing above expectations (so far), and Vikings draft scenarios served three ways!

For those about to mock, we salute you!

Nate Palmer and Geof Dickinson stop by to talk ball, puck, ball...and stuff. 

Surveying the sights and sounds in St Paul were suspect, on and off the ice. Carson Wentz is back, which means absolutely nothing. And we're going to agree to disagree with Tom Pellisero!

Nate Palmer joins to talk Fort Meyers and spring ball PLUS everything happening with the Vikes - Kyler Murray you say?!

Connor Henderson joins to chat NHL trade deadline. Also, he's been on the move to the stands lately - hockey AND basketball! We'll get his hot takes and rave reviews, chat some NFL, and pick the NHL weekend slate.

Not quite solo this week, but pretty close: Jessy Grove joins to chat Timberwolves and the NBA then your host goes wild for the Wild and vamps for the Vikes before crashing out on the NHL slate this weekend. 

The host who certainly does not have the most...mental clarity. The I-man and Connor Henderson navigate through Olympic hockey, the impacts to the Wild, and the preferred outcome. Some Vikings variety. And rounding things out with the Wolves and Pick The Slate NBA edition!

Twins talkers?! Yes, yes we did. Plus a sprinkling of Vikings 'news'. The Wolves and Wild are on break, BUT USA Hockey features several of our players. Speaking of which, we'll pick the Olympic Hockey slate!

We've got lists! We've got quotes! We've got...slates! Come one, come all, we've got it all!...or something. 

DING DONG, KWESI GONE!

He's BAAAAaaack.

Whatever will be will be. Had a nice parody all set to go with this episode...until my editing software screwed up the timing/sync. Please enjoy it without my singing haha (you may even enjoy it more tbh)...

Finally, The Wild HAS COME BACK to Saint Paul and the whole League can smell what they're cookin': the second most points! The Pohlads hate YOU just as much if not more than you hate THEM. BREAKING NEWS: the Vikings are STILL out of the playoffs...and they're going to be playing some games or something this weekend. Whatever. We'll Pick The Slate and stuff anyway...

New year, same old stuff...but we've got a new theme song!

Once more unto the breach in 2025 dear friends! That's right, it's the last episode of the year - crazy, right?! We'll put a bow on the Vikings season (finally, blessedly...), work through a wild stretch for the Wild, wonder about the Wolves, and pick our nose...I mean THE SLATE...for the last time in the 2025 NFL regular season!

Tom Pohlad says what we all knew but needed to be said. Hughes are these guys and why would brothers possibly want to play on the same team? Not the sibling rivalry I grew up with... The Vikings shut down the CD - good. And Week 16 of Pick The Slate!

The Wild are on a wild run. The injury bugs are biting again. What the heck are the 2025 Minnesota Timberwolves? Some Purple Perspective. And everyone's favorite segment: PICK. THE. SLATE!

It's dead. We've held the funeral (a few times actually). Now we work through our grief, and I'm finally at stage 5: acceptance. Goodbye 2025 Vikings season. 

The Christmas colors are bringing us good news of great cheer...unlike the other three of the core four teams. The Wolves are...what? The Twins ownership situation is murky once more. And we have to talk about the Vikings, I guess. NFL Week 13 Pick The Slate!

It's border battle week. What more need we say? Well, we'll definitely say more than that, but there's definitely a heavy Vikings (and Packers, I guess) focus. 

Valkyries, take flight! It's a very Vikings vibe as we work through some terrible tendencies, atypical tantrums, and inconceivable injuries (I don't think that word means what you think it means). All that plus Pick The Slate: NFL Week 11 Edition!

The Twins did some things! The Wild might be figuring themselves out. The Wolves NEED ANT. And the Vikings need another win. Connor Henderson joins to break it all down and play Pick The Slate!

It's all unwatchable. Already? Yup. But we'll keep watching it anyway. We're 'Minnesota nice' like that...
