Longtime football coach Greg Carlson died yesterday at the age of 77.
The former head coach at Wabash, Whittier and St Scholastica was a mentor to many and will be missed by all who were blessed to know him. May he rest in peace.

🚨 JUST IN: Trudeau to Americans—Trump’s trade war isn’t just a Canada problem, it’s your problem.
Higher costs. Supply chain headaches. Pricier food and gas.
And for what? A stunt that violates free trade agreements while pretending to “own” foreign leaders?
The U.S. economy isn’t some MAGA rally prop, but here we are—hurtling toward tariffs and retaliations that’ll squeeze American wallets harder than any press conference spin can justify.
I’m gonna miss watching KAT as much as the next guy, but shout out @Timberwolves for getting a solid return for him and also distracting us MN sports fans away from @Twins collapse of a season.
@LGlodek Calm down, we still have a solid defense, an above average oline and RB, but most importantly a healthy kicker who will be great all season…. until it actually matters in the 4th quarter of a playoff game, then he’ll kick that ball in a direction you didn’t know was possible
Ask yourselves this question... How bad can Donald Trump and his cult of Republicans be if they can drive a true independent like me to endorse the Harris/Walz ticket?
Take a moment to think about that.
I am hearing reports of some airlines only offering flight credits to passengers for cancelled flights. Let me be clear — you are entitled to get your money back promptly if your flight is cancelled and you don't take a rebooking.

The 1st Minnesota Volunteer Infantry captured a blood-stained, bullet-pierced Virginia battle flag at Gettysburg on this date in 1863.
Virginia has been asking for it back for over 100 years.
When asked about it at the White House in 2000, Governor Jesse Ventura said, "Why? I mean, we won. … We took it. That makes it our heritage.”
The previous day, the 1st Minnesota had suffered 82% casualties when they heroically charged headlong into enemy forces to shore up a gap in Union lines. It is not an overstatement to say that their gallantry possibly saved not only the battle, but the war.
Of their sacrifice on July 2nd, General Winfield Scott Hancock said that "no soldiers on any field, in this or any other country ever displayed grander heroism," and insisted that "there is no more gallant deed recorded in history."
In a speech in Cannon Falls, Minnesota on the Fourth of July 1928, President Calvin Coolidge went so far as to say that these men's heroism that day entitled them to the rank of "saviors of their country."
Think about that next time you see a Confederate symbol on Minnesota soil.
