Drew Pearson has an appreciation for the misery Vikings fans have endured.
He should, since he has an iconic hand in their suffering.
So when Minnesota’s Stefon Diggs took a desperation heave from Case Keenum to score the winning touchdown against New Orleans as time expired, Pearson began to celebrate. The receiver who put a dagger in the heart of Vikings fans with his Hail Mary reception from Roger Staubach knows it’s been a long, hard 42 years.
“It takes a play like that to alleviate a curse,’’ Pearson said Monday after appearing at the opening of his Sports*88 sports bar in Terminal E at DFW Airport.
