    Go Vikings!  - For Buddy -

    My grandfather was a Steelers & Pirates fan.  My family would go visit him and so many times he would say to me, "Oh, Allen.  Your Browns beat us up again last week".  🙂  I loved my grandfather.  A couple of months after he died Franco Harris made The Immaculate Reception and the Steelers have never looked back.  (I actually rooted for them that year he died....for my grandfather....it wasn't easy to do)

    My best friend in the world never saw the Vikings win a championship.  And now TODAY happens a couple of months after he died.

    I could go for the Vikings.   They have never won a title. And I have cousins from Minnesota. Though I would not mind the Eagles or the Jags. (I just think it is time for the Pats dynasty to come to an end.  They have had a long, good run).

        It's a shame it came down to a very poor Pop Warner level tackle by a safety who doesn't deserve to be called "safety". He could not even make a proper heads up tackle. How the hell did he get to this level?

        From my perspective, the defender avoided the tackle because he was there way too soon.  It would've been pass interference.  Now, of course there were other options.  He could've stopped and just made the tackle after the catch.  Or just go ahead and incur the penalty.  Either would've been better than just taking himself out of the play completely.  After all, he was the back of the train.  There wasn't anyone else to keep the receiver from the end zone.

        Also, I thought the Vikings screwed up by not running the ball once they were in position for that go ahead FG.  By passing they let the Saints have a time out to work with with quite a bit of time left on the clock.  - I do understand however, that they were trying to WIN the game.

          Orion, sorry to hear about your loss. Best friends are special, and I’m sure it’s not easy.

          But he’s looking down smiling after that Minneapolis Miracle

            Maybe he had something to do with it?

              I thought the same, that they were going to run through the middle. That would have forced the Saints to either lose the TO or 45 seconds (and they would have had way less time for the Lutz FG). Anyway, that choice brought an unbelievable ending.
