This is not Detroit, man, this is the Super Bowl!

I watched both the Jets-Colts and Vikings-Saints game on Sunday. The Jets made it close in the first half, until Manning decided to step up and stop playing games with the Jets D line. The more exciting and excruciatingly painful game was the Vikings-Saints.

The Viks had every opportunity to win that game as a team with 4 turnovers going driving down the field the last few minutes of the 4th quarter, and a tied score on the field – the miracle was about to happen. Even the stupid 12 man penalty was forgotten when a field goal for the win was looking to be in reach. When Farve stepped up to throw what might be his last pass of his career:

Paul Allen of KFAN Radio in Minneapolis-St. Paul said it best, Brett could have taken a knee or ran up the field a few yards but did not need to force the throw. Toni Monkovic of NY Times notes the irony of both the blown play and one of the greatest of the season, held by Bret Farve this season.

With the 2010 game being the first Saints Superbowl, I’m on the side of Drew Brees to take the Gold and Black to the title.

The Vik’s just get better..off the field

Follow up on the Vikings story… Since there’s nothing about them to talk about on the field:

One week after several Vikings players held a lewd party on a Lake Minnetonka boat, two players were seen throwing trash in a dumpster at a construction site in Eden Prairie. 5 EYEWITNESS NEWS obtained exclusive access to the trash – and the information it revealed….

The list was titled “Incoming Flights (pickups)” and was written on a piece of Minnesota Vikings paper. It contained women’s names, airlines and flight times. The names ‘Iris and Liris’ are at the top, followed by ‘Nivie + 5’, ‘Ayana and Dionne and Aisha’, ‘Sandra’ and ‘Tanika plus 3’. The total is 16….

….Ayana Angel is well known for operating all over the U.S. On her Web site she describes herself as a courtesan, which the dictionary defines as a prostitute with upper class clientele. The site also directs visitors to her starring roles in several triple x-rated movies….

“I really was legitimately going to go,” Angel says. “Actually, I didn’t go because they had a similar situation here with some other football players. But it’s something they do every year.”

Angel says every year Vikings players bring in girls from Atlanta for a rookie party. “They’re mostly strippers that they fly up and – given the situation – if you pay them, they’ll do extracurricular activities,” Angel says.

According to Angel, the price is roughly $1,500…
