all i am asking for is a contest.

the vikes did not come to play and that sucks for several reasons:

in order of importance -

1- the game was on national television and they gave an embarrasing performance.
2 - in losing, they pretty much waived bye bye to home field advantage if they make it to the nfc championship game and, that is an important advantage.
3 - they had several injuries in this loss to key players, none more important than EJ henderson who may never play again. obviously that could have happened in a win but after the way they played the second stringers should have been on the field.

that's randy moss for ya

vikings get screwed today by the redskins blowing the game against the saints, several times.

and then screwed themselves by only suiting 3 players against the cardinals.

the cardinals did the obvious thing and took those three players out of the game .

1 - percy harvin - they did not kick off to him.

response/adjustment from from vikings offense - nothing.

apparently starting off at your 35 yard line each drive isn't an advantage for the vikings since the cardinals willingly kicked it there each time.

2 - adrian peterson - almost zero yards rushing due to coverage.

response/adjustment from childress and coaching staff - nothing

apparently the cardinals guessed right when they decided to bring the whole defense in to the box and stop the run and the vikings were content to stick with the same plays they had scripted.

3 - jared allen - no sacks due to being double teamed all night and what was pathetic about that was that noone else got any sacks either.

response/adjustment from childress and coaching staff - nothing.

I apologize - They did do something here - they panicked and blitzed and got burned as expected. Note to Kevin Williams: You were the sack leader on the team before Jared Allen came to MN and were double teamed regularily every game. Feel free to make a play or two when you are suddenly given single coverage all game.

vikings/childress and coaching staff THOROUGHLY OUTCOACHED!

THOROUGHLY.

it turns out the vikings would've been better off not taking the field seeing as how, at no point in the game, did they look interested in even making a contest out of the game but more importantly:

they are now without pro bowl middle linebacker ej henderson for the rest of the year.

that's 2 pro bowlers now - GONE.
and both in the secondary.

along with several other injuries.

what a cruel twist of fate.

at 3pm it was looking like the vikes would gain home field against the saints in the nfc championship, atleast for the time being. 

less than 7 hours later, it is gone and most likely gone for good and yet it is no longer of any concern. they won't be able to beat the saints even if they have home field the way things are looking now.

their supposed immunity to injury (which was exagerrated in the first place) has been taken away in extreme fashion and at a terrible time and coach childress's inability to make adjustments at any other point then half time has been RE-exposed.

im pissed obviously.

An interview of axl posted (for the fans) on the facebook page of his guitarist and translated "loosely" by fans from the forums.

We are now GNR's marketing team.

I wonder if anyone, including band members, can ever get a hold of Axl. I bet it's a "wait til he calls us" arrangement.
