I understand PJ Fleck has had his ups and downs. I understand the Gophers laid an egg last week against Purdue. But if, like me, you’re 48 or younger, they’ve never beaten their three biggest rivals all at the same time in your lifetime until today. Choose joy.

They got cheated from a championship in 24. They lost their best player to injury in 25. They lost basically half their team in 26. They exceeded expectations this year. Cheryl has led the Lynx to 4 championships!! This narrative is just wrong.
Cheryl Reeve on the Lynx becoming the first 1-seed to lose an opening round series to an 8-seed, via @ChristanWNBA: "We're not going to focus on shit like that."

Minnesota coach P.J. Fleck became blood brothers with middle linebacker Maverick Baranowski which was … odd. Bur there’s far more to Fleck than his eccentricity. He’s beloved by his players for his authenticity and how he cares for them. Gift article nytimes.com/athletic/7635702…
