The Rake has an excellent roundup of news that went under-reported in the wake of the 35W bridge collapse. They have comments from reporters who worked the story. Here’s a few interesting pieces:
80 Percentage of local bloggers who wrote about the I-35 bridge the night it fell. Some hadn’t posted in six months, according to MNSpeak editor Max Sparber, who linked to every local post he could find on the topic.

Enh, at least some good came out of it. Eventually.
If Hardy can find his form from two years ago it will be a fantastic trade. Go-go was at best a defensive center fielder. If he could have learne...
