Much as I wanted Norv gone, I freely admit I was as flatfooted as everyone else by his resignation this morning.  'Twill be interesting to see how Shurmur does going forward.

#18 Okie State in town today.   It should be a good game as the Cats have played well at home this season.

Will be at NC State - FSU game.  They're doing at thing for ROTC alumni where we're being honored on the field during second quarter, so that'll be cool.

Ugh...tough loss today.

Yeah, here, too.  boss the game for 55 minutes, and lose on a shitty play with 3:30 to go when they nailed the QB but the prayer of a pass he threw up found a receiver in the end zone

Unless they somehow turn things around at halftime, I think it's safe to say the Vikings from the first five games were just a mirage.  Jesus H. they look completely inept.

It's Detroit. Vikings will be fine.

Dude, have you actually sees how the Vikes have been playing the last two weeks?  It's like they were secretly replaced with the Browns during the bye week.  :buck2:

Heh, true. I thought they'd be able to handle Chicago last Monday.

...And there goes the Vikes' season.  >:(  They may still manage to stumble their way into the playoffs (although I honestly doubt it at this point), but they won't get very far if they do.  Bleh.

And barring an alien abduction of Brady & Belichick, the Pats have pretty much won another AFC East title.
