Photos are the windows to our past. I’ve always felt that way. Some photos are better than others in that they caught an iconic moment in history, life, or sports. Even if it’s just the cover of a magazine they can become iconic in their own way. For Minnesota sports fans one such magazine cover […]
Last year Netflix came out with a one-of-a-kind documentary that took the sports world by storm. Quarterback looked into the lives of NFL players at the most scrutinized position and how they dealt with their time on and off the field. The subjects of the series were a mix of stars and struggling players. Patrick […]
While it’s not as big as the NFL Draft or anywhere close to the Super Bowl in hype, the release of the NFL schedule is a big deal. Fans can start planning the games they want to attend, figure out their win/loss record, know when they should start trash talking their hated rivals, and plan […]
I have never fully understood how polarizing Kirk Cousins is to the Minnesota Vikings fan base. When he came in I know some people were so married to Case Keenum because of the Minneapolis Miracle that they felt that he was betrayed by management. It was a great moment and story, but where is Keenum […]
Every sport has an all-star game of some sort. Some are played with purpose and others are strictly as an exhibition. For instance, the MLB All-Star game is played to determine home field advantage in the playoffs while the NFL Pro-Bowl means absolutely nothing. The thing is that it used to. Sure you used to […]
There wasn’t much chance that the Vikings would win tonight’s game against the Green Bay Packers. Adam Thielen was put on injured reserve, Kirk Cousins was out after testing for Covid, and Michael Pearce was out due to illness as was Cam Dantzler. That goes without mentioning that the Vikings just haven’t played well this […]
Whenever the Vikings and Bears play they are always tough meetings. At the beginning of the TV broadcast and a few times during the game they show old footage of the historic battles of the Purple People Eaters and the Monsters Of The Midway with cold breath and brutal hits and tackles. It looks like […]
Coming into this game I was sitting on the fence on two points: would the Vikings win, and would I want them to win? The way the season has gone I fully expected another loss by my beloved Vikings. I saw another closely played game with the Vikings running the ball well and passes being […]
Well, it was bound to happen to somebody. It’s difficult to win the Super Bowl and it’s just as difficult to go winless in a season. It has happened to Detroit before and it looked like they might be on that path again in the first season of 17 games. You just don’t want it […]
A win is a win, is a win, is a win. That’s all that matters in the end. Usually at the end of a Packers game if you leave any time on the clock Aaron Rodgers will drive down the field and win the game. It’s like death and taxes. Today the Vikings got an […]
