The Sporting Life with Michael Rand: Jared Allen Says Goodbye
March 10, 2014
Every Monday at 8:30am StarTribune sports writer Michael Rand stops into the Morning Show to share the latest news in Sports.
Today Michael Rand chatted with The Morning Show's Jill Riley and Steve Seel about:
1) Free agents can't officially sign in the NFL until Tuesday, but there is big news in Vikings land already. The team is reportedly going to re-sign QB Matt Cassel and defensive end Everson Griffen. Jared Allen, meanwhile, had told the Vikings he won't be coming back next year.
2) Tweet Sunday night from Minnesota State Representative Pat Garofalo: "Let's be honest, 70% of teams in NBA could fold tomorrow + nobody would notice a difference w/ possible exception of increase in streetcrime." He's getting hammered pretty hard for that nationally.
