Not on Favre

Patriots 28, Vikings 18.

This one is not on Favre. This one is on the defense. The fuckin' Pats have had the Vikes number the past couple of times they have played each other. It is pathetic to watch. BenJarvus Green-Ellis, are you fucking kidding me... against a top fifteen defense, the one that led the NFL in rush defense 2 out of the last 3 seasons, only to finish second in that category the year they did not lead. I can't pin the blame on Favre, that pisses me off as well. It is a lot easier to pin a loss on one player than an entire defense. I hate to say it but this one is on the D.

That and the Patriots maybe the most lucky bitches in the NFL and the Vikings might be the most unlucky. Madieu Williams almost makes an interception in the first half. Unfortunately, the ball goes right through his hands and into the arms of a Patriots receiver. He catches it, the drive stays alive and the Patriots score. Percy Harvin bobbles a Favre pass while going to the ground, who catches it? Devon Fucking McCourty, that's who the fuck who. The worst play of all - Tom Brady drops back to pass, builds a playground for children, delivers water to children in Africa, ends world hunger, and still has time to find a wide open Brandon Tate. Who is Brandon Tate you ask - he is the fuck-stick who scored a 65 yard touchdown against the Vikings today! Fucking no-names and their spectacular plays. Leave it to the Patriots and their shit-eating-grin coach Bellichick.

Song of hatred:



Maybe Bill sweatshirt-wearing-robot-personality-jackass Belichick is really the most brilliant fucking mind to ever coach the game. The Vikings defense certainly had no say in how the game was dictated. Fuck! Danny Woodhead? Who the fuck is he? He was somebody today. You will never hear from him again. Do you know why? Because he sucks. Only the Vikings let him shine like the aurora fucking borealis.

I said to my wife before the game that 3-4 is soooo much better the 2-5. But here we are, 2-5. This season is inching toward done, and I am inching toward depression. What the hell am I to do after the Vikings leave Minnesota? Can anyone say College Football. That is right, the Vikings leave and I am done. This is not a threat, I have no power to threaten. This season may be the last season that I care about the Vikings. I'm 37 years old and I am sick of letting a team dictate how the fuck I feel every week of the season. Maybe this is over-the-top (Sly Stone reference welcome), but I am sick of feeling out of sorts after a Vikings loss. It is all too common lately.

Song of deference:



As for Favre, 10 stitches in his chin, big deal, he will be out there again next week when the Vikings host the Cardinals. He will probably play well, but Derek Anderson will probably find a way to slice the Vikings defense with a ginsu fucking knife if they don't play better than today.

I don't think that there has ever been a more talented team on a NFL playing field than the Vikings. I also don't think that they will ever be able to put together a complete game. This will lead to their demise. I really am questioning the path the Vikings have chosen this year. It all starts with the decision to go into training camp with question marks at QB, the reasoning behind sending three vets to Mississippi, and the suspect play calling throughout the year. I have supported Childress since he got the job at Winter Park, but that support is waning.

9 more weeks to the season, shit better start rolling!

Michigan State University @ The University of Iowa

Kinnick Stadium, Iowa City, Ia.

The story of the Hawkeyes two losses:
Arizona loss - special teams.
Wisconsin loss - clock management.

The Hawkeyes shore up these two issues, they handle the Spartans. Michigan State is overfuckingrated. One week they look good, but then it takes them overtime to beat the O'Malleys. And they just suck.

Pregame jam:

First Run

I've decided at the age of 37 to begin to write. Don't ask me why because I don't fucking know.

I am passionate about the Minnesota Vikings, and on a lesser level the Iowa Hawkeyes. Think of it only as the difference between professional and amateur. I prefer the pro form of the sport to the amateur. Regardless, I love both teams and try to follow them closely... fuck, I follow both very closely. I swear to Vishnu that 90% of my internet time is spent on either one of those teams. That 90% is split between 90% Vikings and 10% Hawkeyes.

This internet space is reserved for my thoughts on the Vikings, with an occasional comment on the Hawkeyes. I might mention the Lions from time to time. This would only be because my son is a Lions fan... poor feller. I will also post youtube vids and other items of interest.

The Vikings are playing the Patriots on Sunday. 3:15 game. I suspect they will lose. Favre will suck it up and start but, he will throw multiple interceptions and limp off the fucking field after everyone. Additionally, he will sprint down the field after touchdown passes.

Drew Magary is a fun read.

The guy has two fractures in one ankle. Huckleberry Finn needs to sit out the week. T-Jack may be able to get it done. The Pats defense is not renowned. Hand the ball off to Adrian, that boy is playing good ball now! The Vikes can win this one but they gotta git there shit together.

I hope that I keep posting. I'm pretty lazy.
