Well, that didn't last long

I admit this season is killing me.

Watching the Vikings flail away and shit the bed thus far has guaranteed I'll endure three-plus hours of torture every week – with the rest of my days spent feeling a deep sense of regret.

When the Vikings have left me feeling this way in the past, writing about them on this blog has been therapy of sorts for me.

So even though things haven't gotten any slower at work or at home, I'm back on the wagon and I'm going to try to resume this blogging thing.

I might have even found someone willing to help out with the writing on here.

Anyway, no great thoughts tonight (have I ever had any? I don't think so). But I will pass along a couple of worthwhile links.

In this one, blogger Brian Burke reminds us just how bad Brett Favre has been this season.

And for anyone pining for Tarvaris Jackson to replace Favre, please read Kevin Seifert's post on the potential return of Jackson as the Vikings starting quarterback.

Don't know about you, but I'll still take the 41-year-old guy with the 10 interceptions and the broken ankle over Jackson at Gillette Field this Sunday.

That's it for now. I'll try to get a post up tomorrow – so I don't have to do one Friday night when no one's reading these blogs anyway. But I can't promise anything.

As much as I don't trust Jackson, as over the years he's been less than inspiring to say the least, I'd rather see him than Brett for at least the next 2 or 3 games.

I believe that this season is over as "grampa" is playing like an elementary school girl and Chili is, well just being Chili and that equates to ID-10-T.

If I had my way I'd fire Chili, release Brett and his cell phone issues then hand the team over to Frasier and let Webb QB. At least the games would be interesting and a bit unpredictable which we won't get with Chili, Bretty or T-Jacky.

Of course that won't happen as the man-love from up high in the organization is just too strong for "he who cannot spell/pronounce his own last name" to ever do anything except what they're going to do which is play just well enough to make it close and just bad enough to lose and continue to suck the soul out of every one of us.

I'll be supremely happy to be proven wrong but I'm just waiting for this season to be over so we can get rid of the wastes of space coach & QB. If we still have a team in MN next season that is...

Skol!

Thanks for the comments.

Don't get your hopes up about Childress getting fired after this season. I don't think he's going anywhere.
