Peterson was arrested and charged with resisting arrest after allegedly pushing an off-duty police officer who was working security at a night club, Saturday, July 7, 2012, in Houston. Peterson has since hired Rusty Hardin, the attorney who represented Roger Clemens in his recent perjury case, to help him. (AP Photo/Houston Police Department) ORG XMIT: MIN2013031616571728

TIPSHEET

KNOW THIS

Adrian Peterson has a ton of contract incentives with the Saints, ESPN.com reported, including $1 million if he gets 1,500 yards rushing in 2017. I think Saints ownership can go ahead and spend that $1 million on something else and feel safe.

WATCH THIS

The Gophers softball team has made plenty of news lately (and rightfully so), but don't forget about the baseball team. Those Gophers enter the final series with a good chance to win the Big Ten title. Game 1 vs. Purdue is Thursday at 6:30 p.m. (BTN).
