Boy this is an ugly game. Well at least the Wolves start their season soon...

No kidding. ESPN is not going to be happy with 2nd half ratings for this game

Eversen Griffen is a beast.

There has to be a good chance Keenum comes in after halftime.

I thought about turning the game on, but it had the feel of a Lions vs Packers game in 2008.

Good job by refs to pick up that flag. Great clean hit by Sendejo.

McKinnon has terrible vision, he runs right into blockers.

Was thinking it last week and right there on the kick return instead of going to the obvious hole on the right he ran right into the guy being blocked on the left.

Speak of the devil....


Totally agree though.

Haha we always give up the weirdest plays in Soldier Field to keep the Bears in the game.

 

[gphr513]

Ok that 2 point conversion was an awesome play lol

Yeah, but of course Gruden had to ruin it by calling it duck duck goose... this is Minnesota! It's duck duck grey duck damnit!

 

[TaLoN]

Still have an elite defense.

Nice to get this win after it became clear that Bradford wasn't ready. We basically spotted the Bears a half of no offense and left our defense out there forever.

You could hear Rudolph say "duck, duck, goose!" So I blame it on Rudolph not assimilating properly.

AP is on the move. Traded to Arizona for a conditional pick.

I always thought that New Orleans was an odd choice for him because they already had Ingram and had drafted Kamara.

He'll be given every opportunity to be RB1 in AZ while Johnson's on the shelf, but who knows how much he's got left in the tank.

 

[Ban Hammered]

US eliminated from the World Cup.
1st time since 1986.
Fox Sports execs are shitting themselves.

Not sure where to post this, but I have a pair of tickets for the Vikings game vs Baltimore in sec 321 row 19 for sale for $65 USD each. PM me if interested, can transfer via Ticketmaster.

Best photo I found of the new Target Center court/interior.

 

[TaLoN]

That's one massive contraption above the scoreboard...

 

[Jesus comma Brodin]

Sounds like no Diggs this weekend and GB is getting back their O-line. If we can pull this off, it'll be miraculous. But, Elite defense can win games.

Wolves court apparently lights up.
Person at the scrimmage tonight said its lit up from under the court, not projected onto the court. (i'm skeptical, wonder if it would be allowed during a game)
