Vikings Destroyed Cowboys: One For The History Books.

Ohhkay. So, the Vikings/Cowboys game was on this weekend. I must admit, I was a bit nervous (see, Brett! Another thing we have in common. *sigh*). However, the Vikings were ON! Yep, even their defense was playing instead of bumbling around the field like they are little plastic men on a fooseball table. Suck it Tony Romo! (okay, I’ll accept my penalty for unsportsmanlike conduct on the blog.)
Fantastic! Sidney Rice was on fire! Brett was cocky as ever and his arm was in peak form. He wanted it bad. He was out to prove that he could beat Dallas in a post-season game, something he had yet to do. Also, I think it also helped that the Viking’s Special Teams was accurate, which is more than I can say for the Cowboy’s (*ahem* #4 Shaun Suisham). Although I did feel bad for Suisham because he looked like he was going to puke after missing the second kick. Puke, or cry, but since there is no crying in football my money is on puke.
What I wouldn’t have put money on is Brooking’s hissy fit. Right up on the Viking’s sidelines shouting at anyone and everyone his teary little eye landed on. But I digress.
The Vikings won decisively. 34-3 to be exact. They were winning so decisively that any points scored was just racking up points and, according to Brooking, “totally classless and disrespectful.” Are you serious? Gawsh, you are even more of a pansy than Romo (The Cowboy’s Quarterback). At least we know Romo went into the locker room and started beating his team down with his jock strap (kidding! I can’t make that claim, but he should have!). As everyone is saying, Brooking, if you didn’t like it, stop them! For cryin out loud, you were all on the frickin field, where were you when this play went down? Why didn’t you do your job? Yeah, maybe it was rubbing a bit of salt in the wound, but honestly, when you have the ball that often, that close to the end zone, you start looking like you aren’t playing at all are fixing the game when you don’t score.
Final verdict: Vikings played a great game, let’s hope they come back like that next Sunday. Cowboys, you totally dropped the ball (quite literally), better luck next year. As for Brooking, “He’s right. This is the NFL, not high school or college. The Dallas Cowboys don’t get sympathy. Throwing that pass may not have been the greatest sportsmanship, but it also wasn’t an affront to decency. If Brooking didn’t want Minnesota to score then maybe he and his 10 teammates on the field should have done something about it.” (Chris Chase). Couldn’t have said it better myself.
Which only leaves one question. What did Favre yell in Romo’s ear after the game?
Yeah, That Just Happened!

I am so out of the loop on football. Hubs has tried to explain the game to me, but I apparently can’t wrap my head around it.
The only thing I know about football is that the Romo guy dated Jessica Simpson, right? If I got that wrong, don’t tell me! Let me think I know one thing about football!LOL
Thanks for stopping by my SITS day!

You are exactly right! He dated her right after Carrie Underwood and then dumped Simpson the day before her birthday (and huge party). She cancelled her A-list party and EVERYone knew why! Jerkface!

Ahhh football… I feel the same way about sports games i do about beauty pagents… I start watching for the entertainment and I stop because of the sadness on the people who are not winning…. the look of ‘no crying in football’ or ‘runner up’ that fake smile with the corners wavering as they are trying no to cry… it tugs on my poor heart strings. I feel like saying you are beautiful/talented i will take you home… also the puppies at the store… you know you shouldnt buy them cause increase demand = increase puppy mills but those poor cute little monsters are paying the lonley small cage ridden price…. see you are a good writer cause you invoke (provoke?) emotion… also Farve was whispering sweet nothings.. its true I was there (in the white shirt with the blue tie and the lanyard.

I doubt it. He was probably whispering condescending “better luck next year. You know, you almost had me. Really.” into his ear.

Everybody down here in Cowboy Country has been moping for days. I’m not a football person, so I’ve been perfectly cheerful!

Glad to see you’re oblivious. I do feel badly for the Cowboys. It was a disappointing end to the season, for sure!
