History of the Minnesota North Stars episode.4: The 90s and leaving Minnesota

The Gervais Podcast

04/25/23 • 17 min

Well everyone we have come to the final episode of the series in the North Stars franchise here in Minnesota. It was emotional reading and sharing this with the fans and everyone who listens to the podcast. Minnesota North Stars would make a Cinderella run in the 1991 season before losing in the Stanley Cup finals to the Pittsburgh Penguins and Mario Lemieux. Then the ownership of Norm Green or greed would lead to the move to Dallas and become the Stars. Why didn't the Minnesota politicians come together and build a new stadium or at least try and keep the North Stars' name for another Minnesota Hockey team? But alas that is the end of the North Stars' time in Minnesota granted I wonder if the Wild could change the name back to the North Stars seeing as how they are wearing the North Stars' colors but with the Wild logo. Who knows but join me on Thursday I will be starting my New York Jets series.

History of the Minnesota Vikings: The 60s

The Gervais Podcast

06/01/23 • 14 min

Hello everyone and welcome to another amazing episode of the Steven Gervais and Friends Podcasts. Today, I talk about the Minnesota Vikings and the origins of the team all the way up to their first Super Bowl loss in Super Bowl 4 to the Kansas City Chiefs. First, we talk about the background of the sport of football in Minnesota starting with the Minnesota Marines and the Duluth Eskimos. Second, I talk about the team's ties with the AFL before they left to get an NFL expansion team in 1960. But the Vikings although granted an NFL expansion franchise in 1960 would not start playing until 1961 which in my opinion they should have stayed with the AFL. Third, I talk about how the Vikings almost got future Vikings head coach Bud Grant who was coaching in Canada at the time to be the first coach but being a wise man he turned it down. After Norm Van Brocklin made life hell for Fran Tarkenton who would later ask and be granted a trade. Norm would quit the team for the second time and then the Vikings went and hired Bud Grant who instilled a different mindset into the Vikings which was led by Joe Kapp on offense and the Purple People Eaters on defense made a run to Super Bowl 4 although they were heavily favored they would lose to the Kansas City Chiefs.

05/04/23 • 9 min

Hello everyone, today I talk about the early 90s era Jets as they tried to find success but that would have to wait as all three coaches of that early era lost in major ways. First, the Jets hired Bruce Coslet who would lead them to an appearance in the playoffs only to lose to the Houston Oilers also he missed out on drafting Brett Favre. Next, they would hire Pete Carroll who would also lead them nowhere but would later come back to coach the Seattle Seahawks. Finally, they made the disastrous hiring of Rich Kotite who also led the Jets to you guessed it nowhere. Join me on Saturday as I talk about the return to the respectability era it will be a long episode. Thank you for the amazing support and enjoy.

The Minnesota Vikings: A Nostalgic Journey through the 1980s - Triumphs, Struggles, and Legends

The Gervais Podcast

06/08/23 • 25 min

Can you believe it's been over three decades since the unforgettable Miracle at the Met and the opening of the Hubert H. Humphrey Metrodome? Join us as we take a nostalgic trip down memory lane, revisiting the rollercoaster decade of the 1980s for the Minnesota Vikings. We'll explore the team's successes, including 12 playoff appearances, 11 division titles, and four Super Bowl runs, as well as the legendary coaches who shaped the Vikings during this era - Fran Tarkington, Jim Marshall, Bud Grant, and Les Steckel. And who can forget the quarterbacks who played through the ups and downs, like Tommy Kramer and Wade Wilson? Plus, we'll discuss the Global Cup, the first American football game played at London's Wembley Stadium.
But it wasn't all smooth sailing for the Vikings in the '80s. We'll delve into the coaching struggles that plagued the team, including Les Steckel's military-style approach that led to the dismal 3-13 season in 1984. Discover how Jerry Burns emerged as the coach the Vikings needed after Bud Grant's departure, and hear about the statement game they played against all odds. We'll also touch on the Minnesota Twins' '87 season success and the Vikings' heartbreaking loss against the Washington Redskins in the NFC Championship Game. And as a bonus, after listening to our episode, be sure to check out the Deluxe Edition Network and the podcast of the year winner, Bev's Video Kingdom!

History of the Minnesota North Stars episode.3: the 80s

The Gervais Podcast

04/20/23 • 9 min

Hello everyone, today I talk about the 80s era of the Minnesota North Stars and how they made a run for the playoffs and the Stanley Cup. But ultimately they would fall to the Islanders and the Edmonton Oilers led by the great one Wayne Gretzky. Also later in the decade attendance and record became worrisome as the North Stars owners started to threaten to move to the San Francisco bay area. Sadly the next decade would be the last for the North Stars in Minnesota because, in the early 90s, the team would move to Dallas and become the Dallas Stars. Hope you enjoyed today's episode and hopefully I've earned the like and sub.
