Epic

2009 October 01

by Tyler

When I first started blogging I envisioned writing a lot about sports. In some ways that would be a dream job for me: to write about sports and/or fantasy sports.

But after writing 3 or 4 posts that were completely about sports, I realized pretty quickly that most of my readers could careless about sports. So this blog’s focus shifted from sports to church/seminary/worship pretty quickly. However, I am still a big sport’s fan. We moved from Minnesota when I was 9 but I’m still a big fan of the Twins (no I don’t want to talk about the game last night), Timberwolves (no I don’t want to talk about Rubio staying in Europe), and the Vikings (we can talk about them all day).

This year the Vikings have had 2 plays that I can only describe as epic. They are simply unbelievable plays that anyone (even people who hate sports) can appreciate.

The Push Over:

This is all I could come up with for a post today.

The post I wrote on Tuesday has taken up all my blogging time just keeping up with the 60 and counting comments.

Filed under: the rest...

What were your initial feelings about Favre? Since I am not a fan of either Green Bay or Minnesota I didn’t have a dog in the fight. I just hated seeing him pull the Michael Jordan…keep coming back time and time again from “retirement.”

However, unlike MJ, he seems to still have the stuff!

I’ll admit that I wasn’t too happy about the possibility just because I knew it would work out for Brett to not have to go to training camp and truly be a part of the team. That said, he was a decent upgrade over the current QB situation before he came. To that end, I’m glad to have him on my team. And now I get to watch them on national tv a lot more, so that is sweet too.

Well, as a SF Bay Area-located nominal 9ers fan, I didn’t think there was anything particularly enjoyable about that clip.

But I’m glad you get to enjoy the moment at our expense.

Dude, I would read your post about sports. I listen to sports radio all day and cannot get enough.
I wish I could write about it or work at a talk radio station for sports. But you are right, a lot of readers could care less.

It is mostly a time thing Kyle, otherwise I would.

I appreciate your Minnesota connection. Thanks for keeping the torch burning for the Twins and Vikings. Too bad about the Detroit series but who expected them to still be in it this late in the season – especially without Morneau? Will have to watch or tivo that Vikings/Greenbay game on Monday!

well I will look forward to reading your tweets and then reading your response on Tuesday about the big game. Excited to watch it though.
Sorry about the twins, thought they could do it, but without Morneau it was going to be very difficult.
But in other good news, the Cardinals are going to win the World Series

I agree with Jeff, that’s just mean to put up the 9er clip. It cuts me to the quick… That should have been done against Green Bay and let us stomp on him.

Peace
