The Vikings are in the land of Mrs. Flicker's birth. Happy times then. Happy times now in Charlotte.
Minnesota Vikings quarterback Christian Ponder and Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton worked out together during the lockout. Their respective competitiveness drove those workouts and each other. Now they battle on the football field. For real this time.
Panthers receiver Steve Smith loves playing the Vikings. The first time he touched the football in the NFL he took it to the end zone on a kick return. A couple years after that, Smith completely destroyed Vikings cornerback Fred Smoot. I've never seen one player so thoroughly embarrass another player for an entire game. Smoot was never who he said he was after that. Smith is a monster against the Vikings. Let's hope that he's a bit more timid this day before Halloween.
Miami Dolphins owner Stephen Ross is an idiot. It's his team. He can hire any available coach he wants. Its just wrong to pursue a new coach while he still has one. Tony Sparano is currently the Dolphins coach. You wouldn't know it by the actions of Ross. He pursued Jim Harbaugh last January. He's apparently pursuing Bill Cowher and possibly Jon Gruden now. Just zero class. I guess when your rich no one else matters.
De La Salle High School in Concord, CA is a machine. They haven't lost to a bay area team since papa Bush's Administration.
In watching the Vanderbilt-Arkansas game it was difficult to tell which team was the #10 team in the nation. Vanderbilt should have won a game that they lost by 3. They have a quarterback in Jordan Rodgers. A quarterback that happens to be the little brother of a Green Bay Packers quarterback. Little brother looks good. He even threw a back shoulder pass that would make big brother smile. A handful of Commodores will be in the NFL. The team that does it right in the SEC is now playing right. Its fun to see.
Baylor quarterback Robert Griffin III is sure fun to watch. Smart guy. Fantastic football player.
Go Vikings!!!
