You can read the title to this post literally. On their way over yesterday, The Veteran and Phone Assassin took Energy Park Drive and as a result had to pass Midway Stadium. A Saint Paul Saints game was underway and, as they passed the stadium, a foul ball was hit out of the stadium just…
Read MoreOnterrio Smith’s Whizzinator
It should come as no surprise and I supposed I should be dismayed because Onterrio Smith showed last year that he can be one hell of a running back.

Read MoreVikings 2005 Draft: Mike Williams
I have to admit that I have not paid as much attention as I probably should have to Michigan receiver Braylon Edwards because I figured he’d be off the board by the time the Vikings’ 7th pick rolls around. But with all the recent rumors and speculation of the Vikings trading up, Edwards is a…
