Star Tribune columnist Patrick Reusse joins host Michael Rand for a look back at one of the newsiest weekends in Minnesota sports that either of them can recall.

On top of the Vikings improving to 4-0 with a win over the Packers at Lambeau Field, we had the end of the Twins’ 2024 collapse, the Gophers losing in controversial fashion at Michigan and the Lynx dropping Game 1 of their series against Connecticut.

But they started with the unexpected news: Karl-Anthony Towns, a nine-year mainstay for the Timberwolves, was traded to the Knicks right before the start of training camp. Reusse and Rand both like the move more than KAT fans might.
