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) it's all All-Star Game, all the time, in Minneapolis. The futures game and celebrity softball game were Sunday, featuring everyone from Adrian Peterson to January Jones to Andrew Zimmern to Nelly. The home run derby is Monday, and the actual game -- plus 4 am bar close -- is Tuesday.

2) LeBron going back to Cleveland and what it might mean for Kevin Love and a trade. Also, speaking of Love, I heard you guys talking last week about celebrity fragrances. I have some Kevin Love aftershave lotion called "Numbers" if you would like to smell it sometime.
