Everyone with any kind of taste hates them, including the team’s top pick Malik Nabers. The team’s newest weapon was asked about the look, and he didn’t mince his words.

Uber and Lyft will stay in Minnesota in an ‘amazing victory for drivers’

Drivers will get a 20% wage increase.

Ride-hailing companies Uber and Lyft said Monday they will keep operating in Minnesota now that state lawmakers have passed a measure that will increase driver pay, but at a lower rate than approved by Minneapolis officials earlier this year.
