Was glad that the Vikings finally beat Philly. We haven't won against them in quite awhile. Vikings: 23 Eagles: 21 Bill |

The Vikings playing in the NFL? Interesting. Saga, a girl found a sword this summer in a lake here. ![]() Saga’s father said the find had special significance because of the family’s NFL team. “The cool thing is that I’m a huge Minnesota Vikings fan, and this looks just like a Viking sword,†he said. |

Hi Moomin ! That is a great story about Saga finding the sword . They are now calling her the Queen of Sweden ! There are a large number of people living in my home State of Minnesota that are of Scandinavian descent. Bill |

Drew Brees is now the all time passing yards leader ! Tonight on Monday Night Football he passed both Brett Favre and Payton Manning for the record. Can't they just put him in the Hall of Fame now - why wait. Bill |

My 1 - 4 Giants are apparently vying for a good first round draft pick :-( The Giants at 1-4 are still in the NFC East race. Nobody over .500 after the Redskins (2-2) were beaten by Drew Brees & Co. on Monday Night Football. |

There are a large number of people living in my home StateYes. And Illinois. In the early 1900s, Chicago was Sweden's second city when counting all Swedish-born immigrants and their children:) Which make me think of Da Bears:) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kBnnon_iZOM |

The local team seems to be doing okay his year. Of course after they left town for a bunch of years they forced everyone to find another team to root for. So meh to the undefeated. |

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edgewater,_Chicago#Andersonville Andersonville is a neighborhood in western Edgewater / Uptown. Once a sleepy little village made up primarily of Swedish immigrants, the community is particularly known for its diversity, including a continued Swedish cultural presence led by the Swedish American Museum and other Swedish businesses.[6] Swedish businesses include the bar Simon's Tavern, a former basement speakeasy, which serves the Swedish wine drink as glögg, and Svea restaurants.[7] At one time there were more Swedes in Chicago than any city outside of Stockholm. Many of Andersonville's Swedes were carpenters, contractors and architects, and played a significant role in building the city.[7] |

No. The Vikings Beat Da Bears, 28-21. Maybe with the help of Ull, the viking god that the stadium Ullevi are named after. |

ESPN is speculating that Los Angeles Rams quarterback Jared Goff does not fare well in cold weather. He has only played in 3 games where the kickoff temperature was below 40°F Well, we'll see ) ..... It's currently 19°F in Denver ) |

Luckily for Jared Goff it's not 1967 and, he's not playing in ..... THE ICE BOWL ..... where the kickoff temperature was minus -13°F below zero at Lambeau Field in Green Bay ! ) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oe0XChUkWgU |

For the first time since 1985, the Los Angeles Rams Yep good but I'm watching KC and Mahomes, wow what a kid! I'm putting myself to the fullest possible use, which is all, I think, that any conscious entity can ever hope to do. |
