I'm sure many of you already know about this website, but I just discovered it and can't help but sharing...

I reckon these bloggers are out of business after today. Vikes are down 14-10 at the half.

EDIT: Too good. The third quarter starts 30 seconds after I post and Arizona go up another seven on the fumbled kick-off return. I reckon these guys will be out of business before the 5pm news in Minnesota.

Ok, time to place bets on when Childress is fired? The winner's prize is that Childress is fired. Heck, everyone is a winner.

To play you have to pick day and hour that the story breaks. Central time. I take from 5pm-6pm today.

Hold on to your sneakers. With an OT win today over the mighty Cardinals they will probably give him a contract extension

I didn't think he could cut it the other night, but after what Favre and Adrian did, it's going to take the Minnesota National Guard to get Childress out of there. With Sidney all the pistons will be firing. We've got 8 games to play, right? We're gonna be a tough team to beat. Now you come along for the ride, OK?

Sorry Oz, but with the lockout next year no way are the Wilf's going to be on the hook for two head coaches.

Childress just signed a contract extension last November that keeps him with the team to 2013. How badly does the owner want to buy him out?

AP and BF save Childress from the firing line, eh? It appears that Ziggy is as good at picking coaches as Childress is at picking QB talent. What are going to do next year? Beg Favre to return? Go with TJ? It may be Ziggy's money so he can spend it how he likes, but it's the fan's emotions and he's spending that capital like it is limitless and going out of style.

I don't like it. Half-assed heart attack wins against piss-poor competition is not satisfying. In fact it builds resentment and cynicism.

In better news, Christmas season is upon us. I'mm going to break out 'A Christmas Story' this weekend. I'll save 'Christmas Vacation' for the first week od December.

I heard Wilf & entourage were spotted leaving the Caruso household

Get well, Dana - great story.

Kyle Schroeder absolutely lived in the Ole backfield. Not bad for a team that's not very good.

Big kudos, AO. The world needs more Hoosiers references. All we need is a town hall meeting and Rice saying, "I play, coach stays. He goes, I go."

And Childress is a Shooteresque character. In 25 years, I could see him being an assistant coach at some high school in Texas. Drunk, talking about "NFC Title game, 2010, final seconds, let her fly...12 men on the field. Yeah. You got a couple of bucks to spare?"

Early week prediction for this coming weekend: Last game for the seniors and coming off a great performance against the Oles, I predict demolition job against the Pipers. 45-3. We're finishing the year on the mighty double monkey stomp.

(Grant snags a lucky 20 yarder after the Johnnies' only fumble for the day that puts the Pipers in FG range. Grant's ability to carry the entire Hamline squad on his broad shoulders will guarantee many entertaining tweets for all and sundry.)

Or it could go like this, from yesterday's Lion's game

Glad to see you back typing, Dana. Thanks for the game update - top notch.

I can't believe there is only one game left this season... Went very quickly this year.

I attended the BU drubbing of hamline on saturday, and got a chance to watch ray grant in all his glory. He probably was on the field for 5, maybe 6 plays total....
