    Ben Goessling on Vikings preferred playoff scenarios and QB question + A bad time to watch the Wild

    Introduction: Host Michael Rand's declaration the other day that it was time to start watching the Wild more closely could not have come at a worse time. Minnesota was drilled 7-1 on Thursday by Edmonton, a game that saw them lose another key player (Jake Middleton) to an injury. Plus Rand looks at Chris Hine's excellent story on the Wolves' group text and what it means to players. 8:00: Star Tribune Vikings writer Ben Goessling joins Rand for a look at the biggest questions, both present and future, facing the team. If we can agree their biggest areas of immediate concern are the health of Stephon Gilmore, the run defense and the interior line, which potential playoff opponents pose the biggest threat? And are we thinking about the Sam Darnold question the right way? 38:00: Thursday Night Football was a dud.

    A Vikings quarterback what-if + La Velle E. Neal III on the Bears, Gophers hockey and Twins

    Introduction: Host Michael Rand starts with three converging hypotheticals. What would have happened if Sam Darnold was on the Vikings last season? What might have happened if the Falcons had signed Darnold instead of Kirk Cousins this season? And how might all of this be different if Bill Belichick had become Falcons head coach instead of now taking the North Carolina job? 8:00: La Velle E. Neal III joins Rand for their weekly debate segment, focusing on the Vikings vs. Bears approach to roster building, the Gophers men's hockey team and what the Twins are supposed to do during this era of baseball. 28:00: A critique of Anthony Edwards' decision-making.

    Musician and NBA writer Claire de Lune on the Lakers, Wolves and Lizzo; Gophers football in focus

    Introduction: Host Michael Rand chats with Star Tribune Gophers writer Randy Johnson about both the football and men's hockey teams. It was a good week for both, with P.J. Fleck's squad getting an invite to the Duke's Mayo Bowl and Bob Motzko's team shutting out Michigan twice. 14:00: Musician and NBA writer Claire de Lune joins Rand for a sprawling conversation about the Lakers, LeBron James, the Timberwolves and Lizzo, among other things. 44:00: A pre-New Year's resolution for Rand about the Wild and a TV announcement by the Wolves.

    Episode 1,000! Sam Darnold praise, Vikings playoff picture and a hard truth about Gophers basketball

    Introduction: Host Michael Rand starts off the 1,000th episode of Daily Delivery with a hard truth about the Gophers men's basketball team, which lost 82-67 to Indiana on Monday. Coach Ben Johnson wants more effort. But this team is clearly lacking in talent after major roster turnover, and effort can only make up for so much of that. 7:00: Star Tribune Vikings writer Andrew Krammer joins Rand for their weekly Vikings film review. Rand fires in first with three hot takeaways, including a thought about Sam Darnold for MVP chatter. 29:00: Vikings poetry, with four of them to commemorate a beautiful game. 44:00: Juan Soto and the Twins.

    Patrick Reusse on Sam dominating Kirk, a record-breaking MLB contract and the Timberwolves

    Introduction: Host Michael Rand and Star Tribune columnist Patrick Reusse break down the weekend in sports, which of course begins with the Vikings' 42-21 win over Kirk Cousins and the Falcons. By the end, Sam Darnold had five touchdown passes while Cousins had two interceptions. It couldn't have gone much better for anyone wearing purple. 17:00: Juan Soto is the $765 million man. What does his new contract mean for baseball, which could be headed for a reckoning when the CBA is up in 2026. 28:00: The Wolves had a slip-up Sunday that turned a great road trip into a merely good one. The concern now: Can Anthony Edwards start coming through with late-game offense again? 41:00: Just like regular mayo, Reusse is told.

    Ben Goessling on the return of Kirk Cousins; Chris Hine on the resurgence of the Timberwolves

    Introduction: Host Michael Rand starts with the Lions vs. Packers game on two fronts. First, it was a pure test of head vs. heart for Vikings fans. A Green Bay win would have been great for the Vikings' NFC North chances, but some people just can't root for Minnesota's biggest rival under any circumstances. Second, Detroit's 34-31 win gave us numerous examples of how stressful it is to play against the Lions. 12:00: Star Tribune Vikings writer Ben Goessling joins Rand from Atlanta, where he is reporting a story on the return of Kirk Cousins on Sunday. 28:00: Star Tribune Timberwolves writer Chris Hine joins Rand from California, where the Wolves are fresh off another impressive win over the Clippers but staring down two important games against Golden State. 45:00: The Gophers volleyball team made a narrow escape in the NCAA tournament.

    La Velle E. Neal III on the most surprising Minnesota team, Gophers expectations and Wolves wins

    Introduction: Host Michael Rand starts with the Timberwolves' second consecutive blowout win and third straight standout defensive performance overall, this time a 108-80 victory over the Clippers in Los Angeles. Have the Wolves found the spark that was missing earlier in the season? And did you stay up to watch the whole thing until around midnight? 11:00: Star Tribune columnist La Velle E. Neal III joins Rand for their weekly debate segment. In focus this week: the most surprising team in Minnesota pro sports this season? How often should the Gophers be expected to be in contention for an expanded College Football Playoff spot? And how many wins will the Wolves finish with this season? 30:00: A major kicking issue was barely a hiccup for the Vikings, one of many things different this season from past years.
