Here's another 1st for me: shoveling snow in thunder and 🌩
My first thought: I've got a plastic shovel, I'll be fine.
2nd thought: But if I do get struck, that'd be an all-timer as a way to go. #MNweather

Do you remember when you joined X? I do! #MyXAnniversary

[Gaylord Islanders @GaylordIslander]

Rough one last night as your Islanders take one on the chin at New Prague.

But, here’s what really matters…

Hwy 5 Hog Hostilities tomorrow night as we welcome our friends @ArlingtonAsMN for a 7:30 pm game. Hog sandwiches served and specials on Premium Light!

Islanders 4-4-2

Hunter Stearns with the win in relief.

Next up, your Islanders host @scwoodies on Sunday at 6 pm.

@NadineBabu That, too: she could’ve. Like I said, though, that’s a different discussion—people who can easily afford them being given tickets that are way too expensive for the average fan. Are we certain they were a gift? Anyway, I’m on Taylor’s side on this one, not questioning her fandom.

[Chip Wolverton @chipwolverton]

@NadineBabu Yeah, I agree it depends on where the tickets came from. It’s not like Kelce couldn’t afford his own tickets, though. But that’s a totally different discussion.

@RadioFalness One of the best bits on this crazy app…🤣

@CoachReichy It was fun to do the training for Legion after doing basically the same for volleyball. All while being a teacher—like if something was up, pretty sure the state would’ve already stepped in.

[Gaylord Islanders @GaylordIslander]

Game Day for your Islanders as they host Eagle Lake at 7:30 tonight at Walsh Field. We’ll see you there!

[Chip Wolverton @chipwolverton]

@WHENESOTA I’m old enough to remember when you had to make your own from a packet…And now it’s everywhere.

@TwinCityVTG @MNorthStarState Double vintage: Stars and Steichen’s! 🥲

Adults should be raising our adolescents, not algorithms.

In every school I’ve been to that’s banned phones in the classroom, we have seen material improvement in kids’ social interactions with other kids.

That’s why I support banning social media for kids under 16.

Australia has done it. Spain has done it. France is doing it. Germany is on their way. Now, the UK is moving to implement it.

It’s time we do the same.

@SchmidtBon321 @TonyLiebert Maybe, but does bearing a mid-major show progress in a Big 10 team? They’re supposed to, so no big win there. And if they don’t whoop them, what does that show?

[Chip Wolverton @chipwolverton]

@Buccigross Is it just me, or has this been the most drawn out process? Feel like I’ve been hearing about this forever.

[Chip Wolverton @chipwolverton]

@TonyLiebert OK, I’m lame, but I disagree with you. Other than a better than average crowd, most likely due to the visiting crowd showing up in numbers, I don’t see the upside.

[Chip Wolverton @chipwolverton]

@NadineBabu I’m sure it will get people out to the barn, but it could end up being a HUGE purple contingency. This is a no-win situation for the Gophers—no need to play them, and doing so just helps St. Thomas out.

@nicolefshirman @DarrenDreger Why is it that the league thinks that only about 38 people currently walking the earth are capable of being a head coach - including the 32 that already are coaches
