Rodgers

Since the Pack is eliminated from the playoffs, Green Bay has decided to place Aaron Rodgers on IR.

He is done for the season.

The Vikings schedule just got better the rest of the way.

IF the Vikings win out and the Eagles lose both, the Vikings will have home field advantage through the Super Bowl.

There are other scenarios as well, but until the Vikings actually win this Saturday, they aren't worth getting into.

Skol Vikings!

Wolves Wins By ONE!

Against a good Portland team. Like I've been saying all year, a one-game losing streak is better than a 5-game losing streak.

But really good teams (Golden State, Cleveland, Boston) put together long winning streaks.

I'm still waiting for one of those...

Vikings!

Everything was great for the Vikings yesterday until Teddy Bridgewater made his return early in the fourth quarter. He looked very uncomfortable out there and cost the Vikings a shutout.

Hopefully that won't bother them as they prepare for next week's Packer game.

On defense and offense the Vikings were overwhelming and smooth. Their only downfall? Way more penalties than usual.

The Giants came close to upsetting the Eagles yesterday. The Steelers gave the Patriots a scare.

I'm just glad the Vikings have Case Keenum. IF he stays healthy I think the Vikings have real chance this season.

OH, And they should offer him a big money deal before it's too late!!

Wolves Lose At Home

To a rotten Phoenix team.

By TWO!

That's why I never get too excited about the Wolves.

Deep down inside, they are still the Wolves.

Football

A Saturday afternoon and the NFL games are on the NFL Network?

sigh

That's one channel that NEEDS to die a quick death...

I don't take the Bengals lightly. ESPN has the Steelers number one in their rankings and it looked like the Bengals should have beaten them last week.

There are no easy teams in the NFL.

Okay, Cleveland, but that's it...

Kyle Rudolph

Minnesota has said they will not let Rudolph play in any Vikings games.

This week. Sprained ankle.

Twins Have New Closer

Fernando Rodney, 39 saves last year for Arizona, signed a 1-year, $6 million deal yesterday.

They wanted Kinzler back, but he signed a 2-year deal with the Nationals a few hours earlier.

All of our closers the last few years have been excellent. Rodney, hopefully, should be no different.

I'm dreaming of a Super Bowl Championship, an NBA Championship, and World Series champions as a Minnesota fan.

I'm sure to be disappointed, but sports have been a lot more fun these last few months...
