A white guy kills a man with his car. A Native grabs a shield & refuses to leave a protest. First is facing 90 days in jail. The Native is facing 17 years in prison. This is what people are talking about when they say "two different justice systems". How about we start listening.

Holy crap. I am watching the playback of the Concert For New York, 25 years after its original airing. Remember how united our country was? How the biggest stars came out to honor the first responders? Even guys from other countries! How times have changed. Heartbreaking.
And, as usual, the perfect call by @craigmattick! Sensational at every sport he broadcasts.
Marlo Gerling comes up clutch as he nails the final penalty kick in the shootout! As Sioux Falls Lincoln wins their 4th straight Boy's 'AA' State Soccer title. #SDPreps #SDSoccer26

Saw the US Gov TV spot from DT. This administration keeps saying we are a Christian nation. Really? Because that ad preached division, retribution, & hate. I know those traits aren't in the 4 Gospels, the Beatitudes, or the old fashioned "red words" Bibles. So which is it?
In the FB comments: where Christians denigrate a Christian for...wait for it...invoking the teachings of Jesus Christ. What a world we now live in.
VIEWPOINT | Don't vote for those who enable cruel policies of administration
"So many actions of the current administration run counter to what my faith tells me I should do for others," writes Kent Olson.

Hat tip to West Central FB for a classy move tonight! The game was won, but the math did not quite work. They had QB run around, then slide down. Next, a simple sweep. That ate enough clock to take a knee the rest of the way. Could have scored. Instead, chose good sportsmanship!

Farmers & ranchers across South Dakota are hurting. The SD Republican Party isn't listening.
Dan Ahlers is.

Farmers deserve a fighter in Congress. That's why we're going to elect @NikkiGronli on November 3.

Today, @CoachDtjackson was late for our radio interview because he was talking with a player. He felt bad about it. But as a dad & grandpa, I WANT a coach who puts a kid before any media chat! IMO, he is a class act all the way, and @GoJacksFB is lucky to have him in charge!

Seeing the grandson of coaching legend Joe Salem play college QB is a full circle moment. Know Joe well, broadcast his kids playing & coaching, and now watching his grand playing against @GoJacksFB. I bet that kid becomes a coach as well! It is the family business!
I think we can all agree this @SDCoyotesFB QB just made himself about a million bucks tonight. Enjoy him while you can Yote fans! He is a hell of a talent.
So many memories. Made bets with my Minnesota co-workers. Back then road teams could only travel 70 players or so. 3rd string I-Back ran a 4.3 40. SD legends Joe Salem was coach. He had to do his TV highlight show that night, so he brought his punter as Player of the Game!
Also #OTD in #Minnesota Sports History (1983) The #Gophers lost to Nebraska 84-13 at the Metrodome. Nebraska had 780 Yards total offense including 585 Yards rushing and 12 touchdowns. #SKIUMAH #RTB #GoGophers

Marshall, MN. But the president and Michelle Tafoya say this is a small sacrifice, right? And the war that isn't a war will be ending soon, just like the way it has ended the 8 or 9 times before this time. Moronic.
Hey Minnehaha County! Can we please elect this competent, level headed person to be Auditor? The incumbent has wasted thousands of tax dollars looking for problems that don't exist. Let's vote for someone who is actually qualified for the job. Vote for Curt Deedrich.
VIEWPOINT | How I plan to improve the Minnehaha County Auditor's Office
"I discovered the main problem with adding vote counting machines is the lack of space within the current auditor’s office," writes Curt Deedrich.

Hey @RepDustyJohnson, @LeaderJohnThune, @SenatorRounds! Is this your guy? Lying about his involvement in 9/11? It is easy to look up what he actually did, or didn't, do. Is stealing valor from actual heroes a tipping point for you? Probably not. Pathetic.
Trump on 9/11: I was building a big building in New York, and I took the whole crew down there right after this happened., Wasn't too much we could do. We had other buildings, the United States steel building was creaking. I'll never forget two firemen. We thought it was coming down on top of us, and two firemen. Big, strong guys. And I'm not the smallest guy in the world. They grabbed me under the arms. They got to get out of here. And they literally lifted me up. This is not easy to do. I'm big. They lifted me up and they started running with me. I said, fellas, I can run myself.
I know a lot of people paid a crap ton of money to go to Wrigley to see @HuskerVB play. And I feel bad for that. But honestly, even if there is not another point played, they will all go home with a story they can tell for the rest of their lives! What an amazing night!
