Oakland and Detroit love the Twins. They were escorted into the playoffs last week by an incompetent Twins squad. With one game to go in the season, the Cleveland Indians are hoping for one more win today, guaranteeing them a spot in the wild card playoff game too. IF the Indians win today, they will love the Twins as well.
It's not often that I want the Twins to lose a game, but helping THREE teams get into the playoffs in the span of just ONE week is pretty unprecedented. Texas and Tampa Bay hate us for making it so easy for everyone that goes against us. But hey, you can't get everyone to like you.
The Gophers lost their Big Ten opener to Iowa yesterday 23-7. Typical Gopher squad. They beat wimps outside the conference and lose to average teams within the Big Ten. No real hopes this season either.
The Vikings play their "home game" in London today. I'm planning on watching part of it, and will watch more if it's at all close. I know the Steelers are 0-3 as well, but the Vikings are a special kind of losing team. We'll see which team is the bigger loser this afternoon.
I'm looking forward to the Broncos game at 3:15 a lot more!
Vikings win today. I thought for sure they were going to let it get away on that last Steelers drive. It was actually a fun game to watch.
ReplyDeleteCassel isn't great but he's sure better than Ponder. I hope Ponder never starts another game in Minnesota.
Yes, I watched the last three quarters, too, and Cassel looked more like the New England version of himself from a few years back. More into today's blog.
