It's some good stuff. Teddy seems to be ramping up his game the last couple of games. They may be peaking at the right time. We will see.


They looked terrific last week and are getting their three defensive stars back. Of course, tonight's game may mean nothing by kickoff depending on what happens this afternoon. If Zona beats the Packers (which they should), next week's game in Green Bay determines the division champion regardless of how tonight's game ends up. In that instance, I expect Zimmer to be judicious in how much his stars, and especially the injured ones, play. My son is coming over for ribs, beer and the game, but I'm guessing the guitars might come out sometime in the second half!



You guys jam the Dead together?

Sadly not...our musical tastes converge in many ways, but he has never understood my fascination with the Dead. He's still a good kid though!

Heck of a season to win the division. Green Bay faltered but the Vikings won it.

Maybe if he keeps up with the guitar, play him some Grisman Garica, maybe it will turn him around. I was a late bloomer.


Great game tonight. Skol Vikes!!!

Losing Rhett Ellison isn't good. I wonder if Dominique Jones the TE on the PS will be added to the active roster. There is only so much to read about him as he is a fringe guy that has bounced around and from a DII school but he sounds like a versatile guy and has some experience.

The bad news is I am concerned about this Sunday's game.
The good news is I am now so bad at picking football games that it is probably helpful.

I've been saying all year this team is just not very good, not with the patchwork O-Line, yet they go and win (ugly) most of their games anyways. This board's reason for being has a talented youthful team that loses more than expected, the Vikes have a talented, youthful team that wins when expected, and often times when not!
