  • As Mid As It Gets

    Roy Smalley actually watches the team and has insight; I enjoy when he breaks down players. Jim Souhan and LaVelle Neal III seem like fine gentlemen who used to pay attention but now just check in and as a result are not informed or perceptive about modern baseball. For being former beat writers they bring very little information to the table compared to other Twins podcasts.

  • Should’ve waited to do this weeks episode!

    It appears that you recorded the episode before the news that the franchise is up for sale. Second episode discussing that possible?

  • Par for the course

    How can you not have an episode on the night the Twins break their epic playoff losing streak? Solid analysts but beholden to the almighty dollar. Guess you couldn’t get enough sponsors in

    time. Less ads and more content!

Twins' streak, Buck & LaTroy

1st Talk North Sports Report
Q: What do you think about the current team and expectations?
The team might struggle without solid leadership that comes with experience, especially with the challenges presented by McCarthy's inexperience.
1st Talk North Sports Report
Q: What would be the motivation today for him to make this a continued storyline?
It seems like there's a lack of trust in JJ McCarthy's readiness as a franchise quarterback, which might be reflected in the discussions about potentially bringing in Rodgers.

Q: Do you think they really have a shot at signing him?
It's skeptical given they are prepping to cut payroll, but attitudes can change.
