The Cathedral girls basketball team beat Mora 49-45 Thursday night at Mora High School. The Crusaders are now 6-3 overall this season.

Karl-Anthony Towns returned to the team after missing nearly a month with COVID-19 and clearly gave the team a spark out of the gates. After allowing 43 first-quarter points to the Thunder and Mavericks in consecutive games, the Wolves allowed just 47 for the entire first half against Los Angeles.

The Vikings finished the 2020 season with a 7-9 record and missed the playoffs after advancing to the NFL Playoffs' Divisional Round in the 2019-2020 season. The Vikings lost to the San Francisco 49ers, who would go on to lose the Super Bowl to Kansas City.

I took our three-year-old son to Target last week to get some clothes because he now seems to grow out of them weekly. As any parent of a toddler knows, you gotta at least stop to LOOK at the toys on any trip to any store, ever.

The Wild and Kings will meet up once again on Thursday night in St. Paul. The Wild took both games of its season-opening series at Staples Center against LA and will look to avoid being swept in the two-game set at home.

The Timberwolves essentially controlled the game from the opening tip and led by as many 16 points late in the third quarter. However, the Magic chipped away at the lead throughout the fourth and ultimately won the game on a buzzer-beating three pointer from Cole Anthony.

Let's all agree to this rule: gas station side is for ten items or less, the rest of the store is a free-for-all! We all win!

Then the dreaded moment: Amazon says they have delivered your package "to your doorstep" but you don't see it anywhere. Suddenly, you are frantically searching your driveway and front porch for your package in your boxer shorts.

As of now, only family members of teams' players and coaches are able to attend but the NCAA says it will "closely monitor the ongoing pandemic and will continue to work with local officials to determine the feasibility of having fans attend games at any of the venues."

Saturday's game can be heard on AM 1390 Granite City Sports, with pregame coverage beginning at 1 p.m.

NFL discussion including whether the Miami Dolphins will be a playoff factor, assessing whether the Giants or Washington is the favorite in the East and of course plenty of Vikings talk.
