We recap SHIDA returning to AEW, how SHIDA the Vikings’ drafted, and SHIDA the Twins trade Max Kepler to the Yankees, and SHIDA Eriksson Ek played for the Wild with a broken leg?

AEW Dynamite Sets the Stage for Double or Nothing

• Holy Shida! What a show!

• Tres de Mayo Trios Battle Royale

  • Anthony Bowens scissors Penta!

  • The Butcher and the Blade scissor!

  • Scissor me Daddy A$$! The Acclaimed vs. House of Black would be the best match of the PPV!

• The Four Pillars Tag Match ends as expected, yet still managed to make the PPV match interesting

  • Good thing, because the Double or Nothing card is not looking great

• An unlikely team of Orange Cassidy, Adam Cole “Babay,” Roderick Strong, and Bandido get a W on the Jericho Appreciation Society

• Willow! Takes the “L” against Saraya, but…

  • Shida to the rescue!

• Ricky Starks and “The Juice is Loose” Robinson finally settle their feud?

  • This will be a trilogy

• Did I mention, SHIDA!

How Did the Vikings Do in the 2023 NFL Draft?

• We didn’t have one steal, according to Michael Middlehurst-Schwartz of USA Today

  • Although getting Jordan Addison at 23rd overall is a steal

  • Maybe the best wide receiver available and can start immediately as the Vikings’ No. 2 wideout, pushing KJ Osborne to the slot

• Defense be damned, the Vikings are gonna score 60 every week

• Lions drafted better than the Vikings, according to Pete Prisco of CBS

  • We and most of the sports world disagree

• Mel Kiper thought Mekhi Blackmon was a reach at 102nd overall, but loved DeWayne McBride at No. 222

Twins Enter May with Healthy Division Lead Despite Health Issues

• Buxton at DH has been working, according to Aaron Gleeman of The Athletic and Dan Hayes

  • 110-win pace when he plays; 95-win pace overall

  • Michael A. Taylor might be worth extending

    • Unless Austin Martin gets healthy and isn’t traded

    • Royce Lewis also a centerfield option, but Twins seem interested in keeping him on the infield

      • And for good reasons (i.e. two knee surgeries)

• New M&M brothers hit the injured list

  • Tyler Mahle and Kenta Maeda both shut down

    • Mahle for four weeks

    • Maeda for ???

      • Only pitch him out of the bullpen going forward

Wild Hockey Culture a Bit Too Wild?

• Joel Eriksson Ek tried to play vs. Stars with broken leg that required surgery

  • Should have just kept him off the playoff roster and called up someone from the Iowa Wild who could win faceoffs

    • Which are stats Anthony couldn’t find anywhere

    • Marco Rossi? Nic Petan?

• Marcus Johansson will be back for two years at $4 million

  • Great signing

• Dumba cries in likely final interview with media

  • Only chance of coming back is if he takes the league minimum

  • Brock Faber has already proved he’s capable of being Jonas Brodin’s top-line defense partner
