Pretty much expected....again...

Wow. I was going to write about something happy in this blog post. I was going to write about how the new school year is going well. I was going to write about how much fun I had at the movie on Friday. I was going to write about how good it was to see my brother visit for the weekend. Heck I was almost going to write about how good the Vikings look at the half of the game today... But of course there is the second half. That dreaded half that's plagued the Vikings since the beginning. When I choked on some water at half time I should've seen the bad omen. Its funny (well not really) but I actually called the loss after the Vikings failed to do anything with their first possession of the second half. But no, I couldn't stop watching, I fell victim to the same mistake that always gets me. That glimmer of hope that swindling slimy conniving two timing double crossing ungrateful glimmer of hope. The Vikes held the lions to a field goal and it looked like we might actually hold onto the lead. Unfortunately they remembered they are a Minnesota sports franchise and decided to commit every penalty, miss every tackle, and drop every pass on their way to blowing a 20 point half time lead in the last minute of the game and losing in overtime. The worst part about it is is that they actually did this EXACT same thing last week and the week before that. Oh well. I should know better. By now it's expected...

P.S. I was going to write about something happy I swear.
