Old Magic

I've seen the Favre touchdown throw with :02 left about 25 times and every time I see it I can't believe they did it. That TD brought back lots of memories for me. The first NFL game I ever saw was the Vikings vs. 49ers. I was six years-old. And the Vikings scored three TDs in the 4th quarter to come back and win. I think that was a defining moment for me. I think it planted that "it's not over till it's over" spirit in me. I never give up on a game! Although I was close yesterday!

By the way, the only thing better than the TD was watching a 40 year-old quarterback run 40 yards down field to throw a block for his receiver. Only Favre!

That game was awesome....I didn't give up...watched to the very end. He's possibly the one thing that the Vikes needed to make a strong run. Harvin--the rookie who rant the kickoff back 101 yards in 11 seconds--has scored a TD each week so far. He's gonna be a spark plug for the team too.

I'm on a church planters' retreat next Monday and we're all planning on hitting a pub for the game.

Go Vikes!!!

That was an absurd throw and catch and didn't he learn his blocking lesson in the preseason?

By "absurd" I assume you mean "awesome."
