We’re more than halfway to the weekend with moar Vikings football. I’m excited for the game and think the Vikings stack up well with the Packers this year....small sample size aside. It’s nice to get this game out of the way early to avoid the winter weather later in the season outdoors, unless you live where I live then it’s still hot and humid. Also, in the nobodycaresaboutyourfantasyteam news, I’m obligated to acknowledge that I lost to GA Skol by over 50 points in the unofficial DailyNorseman FF league. Meanwhile, let’s carry on with our news and links open thread full of beer recommendations, nap strategies, crock pot and smoker recipes.
