Week 10: Vikings @ NYG

- wadE

Life has been so busy, I haven't had the time to bore you with my thoughts on the Vikings.

So quickly:

I have never been so frustrated and elated while watching a Vikings game (and that's really saying something)

Think about it, the Vikings hadn't run a kickoff back in 6 years... which was against who? The Giants.

The offensive ineptitude was stupifying. (my new Mike Tyson Thesaurus is great!)

Latest word this week is that Liewinski (Off. Guard) is being deactivated. I actually hadn't noticed how bad he was playing...since the whole group has been less than stellar, but apparently he's been the worst of the bunch...although I now hear that he's been playing hurt. Regardless, apparently we've brought in some guy from San Diego who when he showed up, he was over 400 lbs. Think about that... that's 100 pounds more than Shaq... whoa... and it sounds like he'll be playing next week. I can't wait!

Anyway, as for the game, I'm so happy they won, and I hope we don't play the Giants again for at least 7 years (since we've played them in each of the last 7, and something like 10 out of the last 12.

Fun side note... last week was the first time in NFL history that the Vikings, Packers, Bears, and Lions all one games on the same day. How strange is that.

Special thanks to Eli for playing like Daunte. (booooo! bad host... bad host </arsenio>)

I said last week: "it sure would be something if the division came down to the final game of the season, with Chicago travelling to Minnesota." I'm still holding on to that dream. :-D

Skol Vikings!
