Vikings Note

I was going to add this yesterday but figured, hey, I could have something for Tuesday if the Wolves lost.

Half way through the NFL season, only ONE team has more wins than the Vikings (the Eagles).

I'm going to sit back and digest that one for a moment or two.

Wolves OVER .500

The Timberwolves won at Miami last night in OT.

That puts them above .500 at 4-3 for the season. They haven't found themselves in that position for awhile. I'm still not expecting anything this year (or ever for that matter) but at least I can pay attention to what they're doing right now awhile longer.

That's something.

Go Wolves!

Greatest. World. Series. Ever.

And it's only been 5 games.

That ending rivaled game number two.

Me? I was in bed long before it got good. I'm going to buy the entire series at iTunes and watch it when I'm awake.

It's THAT good

The Vikings? I'm glad they won but I missed the entire thing because of the horrible start time. 6-2 with a bye week coming.

The standings are looking great.

Dodgers Win!

I said it before, when two great teams meet, they each should win two. It's the last three games that will determine whose best.

Ravens Rebound After Vikes Loss

They lost Joe Flacco to a concussion, though.

Personally, I didn't see it as a late or bad hit. I've seen enough QBs over the years do jukes and fakes while running up field to know that sometimes they are going to get hit like a real runner.

The slide was late. The tackler was screened just before he got there. The result was painful, but not dirty.

Suh, the defensive lineman who has been doing dirty stuff his entire career? That's different. Picking the backup QB up by the throat and doing his best Darth Vader impression? That's blatant. Just like everything else Suh has done over the years. I don't no why he is still in the league.
