It's a shortened but stacked hour of The Sports Weekend with Steve Thomson. Jess Myers, Chris Hine and Steve Carney stop by.

It is April so in truncated fashion we covered the best of the best in spring sports - as Ron Sirak joined to preview Masters week, Kevin Lynch of Fan Duel Sports Network previewed Wolves-Sixers and the beginning of the Marc Lore-Alex Rodriguez era. Recapped the Twins action from the day and even chatted some Minnesota Wild as well then finally we headed outdoors with Steve Carney.

Spring is finally here which means it is almost time to grab the fishing poles and venture outside like we did today with Steve Carney as he puts the ice fishing gear away and prepares for the open water fishing season!

Checked in with Kevin Lynch of Fan Duel Sports Network in Philadelphia ahead of tonight’s matchup against the Sixers. We discussed the latest in team ownership from this past week, the Wolves matchup in Philly, and much more!

It is that time of the year where the grass is green and the crowds at Augusta begin to fill. With the Masters beginning this next Thursday we talked to Ron Sirak, writer for Golf World and Golf Digest and we also checked in on the leaderboard with the Augusta National Women’s Amateur!

We recap the rough outing in the Home Opener with the Twins falling to the Astros with some highlights and also chat with Dan Hayes previewing the Saturday matinee against the Astros, possible update on Royce Lewis, Bailey Ober getting the start after battling some illness and much more as we lead you up to Twins pregame in their second game of this series!

It’s a truncated Sports Weekend with Steve Thomson but PACKED with local updates for every sports enthusiast! Wild hockey? Jess Myers is here. Loons soccer? Andy Greder is also here. Wolves consistency? Kevin Lynch is begging for it. PLUS, word on the outdoors with Steve Carney.

Respool those reels… every day down is another closer to the fishing opener!

Kevin Lynch is a Timberwolves analyst for Fan Duel Sports Network. Consistency has been a struggle ALL season long for the Wolves, why would it be any different with eight games left in the regular season? Kevin and Steve air out their frustrations and discuss a potential offseason trade for Kevin Durant. Is there enough benefit to offset the potential cost?

Andy Greder covers the Loons and the Gophers for the Pioneer Press. It’s the home opener for the Loons and there’s a high chance for soggy. The defense was solid to start the season but the last few halves have been inconsistent. Andy previews tonight's match vs Real Salt Lake and gives his thoughts on the coaching change for Gopher Men's Hoops and a roster in transition.

Jess Myers covers the Wild for the Pioneer Press. The Wild are coming off a big W over the Caps and Ovi and have the New Jersey Devils for the next couple. Jess and Steve talk game details, trends and injury updates.

The full second hour of The Sports Weekend with Steve Thomson. Lindsey gives a quick recap of her trip to the North Shore PLUS conversations with Bobby Nightengale and Jess Myers!

Jess Myers covers the Wild for the Pioneer Press and was in the building for their win over the Buffalo Sabres. It wasn’t a must win but a should win in Jess’ book. Lots of games these days and Alex Ovechkin and his record pursuit are on the way.

Bobby Nightengale covers the Twins for the Star Tribune and has been at Spring Training for weeks. He’s ready to move on to the regular season and so are the Twins. Bobby also gets into the bullpen being a potential strength for the club this season, his sleeper picks for Cy Young and an injury update on Royce White.
