The Vikings' Pat Williams and Jared Allen have given the Green Bay Packers plenty of bulletin board material for the September 8th season opener at Lambeau Field. Pat Williams: "They're going through all that as a team, trying to figure out if Favre or Rodgers was the man, while we've got the same team we had all off-season," he said. "I'm glad they got all that darn press, 'cause when we ...

MLB: Yankees 9, Twins 6 . "I knew he got good wood on it." No, that's not a quote from Madonna regarding a night with A Rod or his solo homer in the 12th inning last night, it was Mariano Rivera describing Delmon Young's three run bomb in the eighth to tie the game. Coincidentally, "I knew he got good wood on it" is also what Matt Guerrier mumbles after every pitch he makes to an ...

Vikings linebacker Heath Farwell suffered a torn anterior cruciate ligament on Friday and will miss the entire 2008 season. Backup linebackers Erin Henderson, Vinny Ciurciu, Derrick Pope and Rufus Alexander will see their playing time increase and are now happier than Zygi Wilf seeing himself on National TV during a game. Seriously, have you ever seen such a successful guy get so excited to ...

MLB: Kansas City 5, Twins 4 (12 innings) . The Twins didn't lose this one in the 12th inning, they lost it in the 8th when Adam Everett got lazy and threw the ball high to first base on a routine play. "It cost us the game," said Everett about his error. "You can slice it and dice it. You can try to word it any way you want to. It cost us the game." The error not only cost the Twins the ...

Which guy do you fell sorry for the most tonight? a) The guy forced to watch the Beijing 2008 Summer Olympics Opening Ceremony with his wife. b) Welder guy who is covered in tats that plunked down $602 to see UFC 87: Seek and Destroy at the Target Center. c) The guy who attends the Seattle vs. Vikings preseason game at the Metrdome tonight so he can see the starters play one ...

Fact, so many Vikings fans have "Made The Team" that there is nobody left to actually buy a ticket and watch the team at the Metrodome.

The NFL Rookie of The Year (AP), the Williams Wall, and the acquisitions of Jared Allen, Bernard Berrian and Madieu Williams hasn't been enough to ...

We want to take you back to Brett Favre's retirement press conference on March 6th for this little gem: "I'm much more aware of how hard it is to win in this league and to play at a high level. I'm not up to the challenge anymore. I can play, but I'm not up to the challenge. You can't just show up and play for three hours on Sunday. If you could, there'd be a lot more people doing it and ...

This may not be a good idea right about now. From the Packers' website: Congratulations! You Made The Team. G-Force is an extension of the Green Bay Packers that's 72,928 players strong every game at Lambeau. It's that extra boost of energy from the fans - the players in the stands - that makes a difference in the outcome of the game. The logo for the G Force Fan ...

All indications are that the Green Bay Packers and Tampa Bay Buccaneers will finalize a trade for Brett Favre sometime today leaving Pack fans disgusted, Vikings fans sad, and 10,000 Takes...confused. See, we have no idea what the difference is between a buccaneer and a pirate. Is a buccaneer just a flamboyant pirate? Do both buccaneers and pirates say "Aaargh!"....and which one buries ...

- MLB I: Seattle 11, Twins 6 . Ron Gardenhire on Seattle's 2008 downfall: "It had to have been pretty frustrating, because they made an honest effort to really go out and put a team on the field that was going to be bingo bango," he said before Monday's game. "Sometimes, it just doesn't work out." Nice old school bingo bango reference , Gardy. Now get back in the clubhouse and throttle ...

We're back! For all of you that were hoping we were (a) Duct taped and stuffed in the trunk of one silver-haired, sports writers' Cadillac, or (b) beaten to death while wearing one of those "fresh" new Timberwolves jerseys at Stand Up Frank's, or (c) finally whacked by our stalker, Lew Ford, we're sorry to disappoint you but we simply got burned out and needed a month on the disabled list. ...
