Axis of Awesome - 4 Four Chord Song (with song titles)

Frozen Pigskin!?!

Good morning on this momentous Monday, if you haven't heard  about the latest 'dome collapse' ( I say latest because it has happened two other times before in the 1980's) it was made apparent early on that it would be impossible to have the roof fixed in one week for the Vikings final home game. So what do they do? well....wanting to have their last home game played at home and not at a neutral site they prepared the TCF Bank Stadium on the U of M campus. This turned out to be no easy task with 5ft snowdrifts inside the stadium. In addition to that, the concession stands were never made to operate in temperatures below 30 degrees. In the end, it looks like all of the issues have been addressed and solved to the best of their ability.

If you are one of the many fans attending the game tonight you are going to want to dress warm! It will be in the 20's and snowing all day today and into Tuesday. So with the field set, its time to get ready and watch the first outdoor vikings game in 29 years!
Go Vikings !!!

The game will be aired on ESPN at 7:30pm tonight

Challenging Game!

QWOP is a game where you play as an Olympic runner with no bones and....well.... you can figure out the rest. My best score was 32.6...Think you can beat it? Enjoy

Favre falls as Jackson helps Vikings crush the Bills 38-14

        Good Afternoon, It was another exciting weekend for sports in America! The Vikings move to 2-0 under interim head coach Leslie Frazier, The Steelers come back in the 4th quarter to beat their bitter rivals (Baltimore Ravens), and of course Tiger Woods finished 2nd to Graeme McDowell at the Chevron World Challenge after missing a put to extend the playoffs on the 73rd hole.

       First off, I have to give a tip of my hat to Tarvaris Jackson who despite throwing 3 interceptions was able to get the job done while throwing 2 TD passes to Sidney Rice. Jackson really stepped up when it counted and although there is improvement to be made, he played a great game.
      Next up! Adrian Peterson!!! This man is truly impressive! Peterson rushed for over 100 yards and 3 TDs on a bad ankle as the vikings torched the Bills. "You've got to be kidding me?!" even on a bad ankle this guy can put up those numbers! "You bet!" two words... ALL DAY.
      Last but not least Brett Favre! During the first series of the game Favre took a huge hit and was helped off the field for the remainder of the game. Now the question on everyones mind is "will he play next week?" and "Will his streak of 297 consecutive starts come to an end?" My prediction...probably not. If Favre is healthy enough to play he will. Judging by what the past says...Favre will most likely play.
       It is amazing what a difference a coaching change can make as the vikings are beginning to play like the team they were 1 year ago. All I can say is keep it up Vikings!

       I have to give one more tip of the hat to Tiger Woods who despite coming in second showed some good signs of improvement. On top of that he was actually happy with how he played after leading for 3 rounds and then placing second. He is making a turn for the better and reemerging as a better golfer and man. Keep it up Tiger and 20+ major wins is not to far away.

Have a great rest of the day!

Now I know it isn't Monday. But that doesn't take away the fact that this is a great song. With the Holidays just around the corner it is time to start getting into the Christmas spirit.

With out further adieu, I say "Ring the Bells! Ring the Bells! Let the Churches Ring the Bells!" and have a great rest of the week.
