Can't go wrong with Double Mountain beers (their IRA is my favorite) or Elysian is great as well (even though they are from Seattle). Hopworks has a great IPA too! I'm getting thirsty :)

I tried the Elysian Immortal IPA. It was tremendous!

Did Bill Cowher just say Ponder is more Athletic than Bridgewater?!?! Lol.

And people wonder why I rarely watch national shows and just listen to Kfan.

Leafman wrote: Well, the NFL network just reported that the coaches decided Tuesday night to start Ponder but told everyone to keep that on lockdown secret until this evening while they publicly expressed optimism about Teddy's progress for the balance of the week. Apparently, Teddy did not look good at all at practice on Tuesday.

On the flip side, they reported that the Vikings are very pleased with the progress of Teddy's injury and in fact had the game been on Sunday he would have started ... which is very positive news.

LEAFMAN THE PURPLE FAN
I guess it just proves that you really can't believe anything that you hear from a team about a player's injury status. Which also means that they might not telling the truth about whether Teddy would have started if it had been a Sunday game. It could be another ploy for the Detroit game. :D

I also happen to think Ponder is a better athlete than Bridgewater. Just not as polished a passer.

No, it was close but the defense collapsed late in the 4th quarter and we lost. Hopefully things will turn out better tonight.

If we win, we win the division.

Musgrave had to limit the playbook, because Pinder was so bad.
