Patrick Reusse was right about the Vikings, who headlined a dominant Sunday in Minnesota sports

Star Tribune columnist Patrick Reusse joins host Michael Rand for
an overwhelmingly positive episode of the podcast. They start with
the Vikings, who improved to 2-0 with a statement victory over the
49ers. By winning 23-17 in a game that wasn't even as close as the
score would indicate, the Vikings are proving Reusse correct. He
liked them as a playoff team before the season started, but he was
in the minority with that opinion. They could contend for an NFC
North title in what might end up being just an OK division. The
Twins saved their weekend by rallying from a 2-0 hole to defeat the
Reds 9-2. Brooks Lee had two big hits, keeping Minnesota's lead in
the wild card race at 2.5 games. Now they head out on a seven-game
road trip to Cleveland and Boston. A big Pablo Lopez start looms
Monday. And the Lynx scored a convincing win over WNBA-leading New
York. Minnesota is still in the running for the league's top seed
and solidified their hold on the No. 2 spot. That plus Saturday
wins by the Gophers football team and Minnesota United made for
quite a weekend.
