Amazing Finish

Okay, admit it. You didn't think the Vikings were going to win last night.

It's okay. We all thought that.

History was on our side.

It was a typical Viking game. Good, consistent, but not great, for the first 2/3 of the game. And then-BOOM disaster struck because we never quite kicked it into another gear. We went backwards and before you know it we we're only up 17-14, and you knew by the way the tide had turned so dramatically that it was only a matter of time before New Orleans would take the lead.

And they did.

And then we did.

And then they did AGAIN...

...and then with 11 seconds left and 65 yards to go, you're clinging to hope thinking, just maybe we will get into field goal range with enough time left on the clock to at least TRY for the win.

And then THAT play happened.

That wonderful, impossible play.

And we're now in the NFC Championship game.

Wow!

The problem is that win was so satisfying last night that we're now thinking we just had OUR Super Bowl. And that there'll be a let down in Philly next weekend.

We still have history on our side, you know?

Still...

...maybe?

SKOL Vikings!!
