BOOM!
Monday Night Football
Vikings vs Packers
Brett Favre vs Aaron Rodgers
Me vs Chase and Kier
Lets do this...
7:23: Welcome to the 26th avenue man cave. Coming to you live on the University of Minnesota campus. With me tonight are resident cheese heads Chase and Kier and I will be taking the role as bandwagon Vikings fan.
7:29: Kier says "c'mon!" while all of the studio heads pick the vikings to beat the packers tonight. Obviously he foolishly things that the packers are going to win
7:30: We are again turned down by Kier. I won't say for what.
7:36: A replay of AP's badass run, brought to you by Van Heusen at JC Penny's...
7:42: The game is underway and I have to say, the dome is really rocking. You can feel how loud it is in your living room.
7:49: Number 69 for the Vikings brushed off a weak cut block, stripped Rodgers of the football and the Vikings recover. Rodgers was 5-5 on the drive. Quite the drive killer...
7:50: These are two consecutive quotes from Chase, "Well, you have to take the positives from that drive Kier." and "Brett Favre time..." Well said.
7:51: Six minutes into the game we have this exchange,
Kier: ooooo Lucy pooped.
Me: Really?
Kier: yep
Me: Damnit
Chase: You have to put that in (the diary)
consider it done.
7:59: How do Packer fans feel about Brett Favre?
Kier: I want him to get hit like Tim Tebow did.
Chase: Do you want him to get hurt? Like, I want him to get blindsided down field. Him going down field to make a dumb block and get blown up.
Kier: Maybe not hurt, but hit really hard...
now you know.
8:03: Brett Favre 1 Packers 0. Favre tosses a one yard touchdown pass to Visanthe Shiancoe. Vikings go up 7-0 and it is silent in the cave. Kier gets tag-teamed by a father son duo with text messages. Some variation of "Touchdown Brett"
8:11: What an answer by the Pack. Rodgers finds Jermichael Finley on 3rd down for a 62 yard touchdown. Bam. Kier gets another text from the father and it said "Ouch". Ouch is right.
8:25: A 4th and 3 play turns into a first down for the Pack as the Rodgers throw deflects off of Finley's foot into the diving arms of Greg Jennings. Brad Childress was to busy petting his beard to get the challenge flag onto the field before the packers run a play. Next play Rodgers throws in into the diving arms of Antoine Winfield, only Winfield plays for the Vikings. Packers just doubled their turnovers for the season with the two first half ones tonight.
8:30: The 392832 commercial break takes place. At this point I think we have view more minutes of commercial time then of game play. In fact I know we have. It is 8:30 right now and there is 11 minutes to go in the 2nd quarter. That means in one hour we have seen 18 minutes of game play and 42 minutes of other things... Monday Night Football everyone.
8:39: Brett Favre 2 Packers 1. Favre finds a crossing Sidney Rice for the score. 14-7 Vikings, prompting Kier to say, "We've given them 14 points...". Given...Taken...its a matter of perspective really.
8:51: Another equalizer by the Packers. AP runs to the left side of the line and is stood up by the Packer D and stripped by Clay Matthews to be returned for a touchdown. ESPN shows the graphic that AP has the most fumbles (17) since he has been in the league.
Kier: Yeah, he's not that good.
Chase: Yeah, I don't know what all the hype is about.
9:02: Touchdown Vikings. AP takes it in after a questionable pass interference call set it up at the one. 21-14 Vikes with 30 seconds to go in the half. Time for me to walk the dog...
9:20: Didn't get to far as it was raining and Lucy was not about to walk in the light rain. I don't really blame her. 2nd begins. Before it does, let's play two truths and a lie...
Brett Favre has two passing touchdowns for the Vikings against the Packers
The Minnesota Twins are the first team to play in the one game play-in game in back to back seasons
Hell Froze over
9:30: Brett Favre 3 Packers 2. Brett Favre floats the ball to a wide open Bernard Berrian for the score. Looking puurrdy good in his debut vs the Pack. 28-14 Vikes
9:38: Jared Allen is everywhere. He just picked up his 2.5 sack of the game to go along with a force fumble. Jon Gruden said he has "a motor". Is that related to having a hamstring while being hurt? "Adrian Peterson has a hamstring but it looks like he is good to go..."
9:48: Donald Lee drops a touchdown on 4th and goal from the 1. Vikes with the huge goal line stand. You can't pass through the Williams Wall without asking. And we all know Wisconsin people are not as nice as us Minnesota folk.
10:03: Tick, tick-tick, tick, tick-tick
10:08: Packers try a trick play to catch the Vikings off guard only they forgot Chilly never sleeps, therefore he is always prepared. Nice try Cheeseheads.
10:14: Kier wants a sympathy punt for the packers. It's been that kind of game.
10:18: The first sex boat joke was made
Jon Gruden: This guy loves contact (Antoine Winfield)
Chase: Sexual contact...on a boat...
10:20: Jared Allen collects his 342523 sack of the game (and go down as a safety) as Chase goes upstairs to sulk and Kier repeating "I don't even want to watch this anymore". Brett Favre and the Vikings whoop up on the Pack. The Vikes get 7 sacks vs the terrible offensive line of the Packers. Vikings go to 4-0 and 2-0 in the division, the Packers fall to 2-2 and 1-1 in the division. Vikes have the look of a very good team and everyone in Minneapolis is going to jump on the bandwagon after tonight if they haven't already. Be weary pseudo Viking fans, it's only week 4 of 17. Loooong way to go before Super Bowl talk.
10:33: Rodgers leads the Pack down the field for the quick score making it 30-20 before the 2 pt try...which failed. 10 pt lead for the Vikes with 3 minutes and 40 seconds to go in the game. Rodgers was pressured again before barely getting the pass off. Vikes also recovered the onside attempt basically sealing up the victory. Vikes played a dominate overall game tonight. The question will be if the Vikings can play like this week in and week out. It will be interesting...
10:44: I keep wanting to end this running diary but the Packers won't quit. They are in Vikings territory at the two minute warning. Can't fault them for trying, I mean...it it their job.
10:50: Pack kick a field goal to make it interesting 30-23 but fail to recover the onside kick again. Favre takes a few snaps in the victory formation and the victory is his.
Final score: Brett Favre 1 Packers 0
