  • Whine and cheese: Packers fans blame officiating, overturned call for loss

    Nov 23, 2021

    When it comes to officiating grievances, a lot of Minnesota sports fans have a photographic, albeit one-sided, memory. They can tell you what they were wearing during Drew Pearson's catch. They remember what they had for dinner the night Phil Cuzzi said Joe Mauer's fair ball was foul. The default when a loss can't be blamed on the coach or the highest-paid player - the latter of which almost happened Sunday - is to blame the refs. https://www.startribune.com/packers-fans-blam...

  • Thanksgiving offers a way forward

    Nov 23, 2021

    Thanksgiving has rolled around once again. Conveniently, November is also national Native American History Month, a time when Americans turn their famously short attention spans to celebrate the Indigenous peoples of this nation.
