I’m very late on this one, with the first quarter almost over in a lot of early games, so I’ll just get to it:

Robert Ferguson has a new home in the Land of Mediocrity: the Minnesota Vikings.

From USA Today:

…the rival Vikings have been sorely lacking accomplished and reliable receivers since Randy Moss was traded before the 2005 season, so Ferguson was a natural fit.

Let me read this again, slowly. The Vikings have been lacking in accomplished and reliable receivers. So they hired Ferguson? “Mr. I-Dream-Someday-I’ll-Catch-40-Balls-In-A-Season”? Look at the stats.

I’m sure Ferguson will be all fired up and whatnot about playing against his former team, letting girls like Ryan Longwell get in his ear and talk about how poopy the Packers were, and how in Minnesota you’re much better off playing for a first-time head coach and a team that has never won the big game.

That’s right, Ryan. Losing breeds winning. I think you should put that on a poster that every Viking player has to pass under to get to the field. You know, for motivation.

Good luck, Fergie. But please watch out: Atari “The Gamer” Bigby hits like a *ucking truck, and he might be the first thing you see on your routes across the middle. Then again it might be A.J. “Did Someone Say Piñata?” Hawk.

For those of you who don’t read this blog from the Green Bay market, there’s a vision correction clinic (Alexander Eye Institute) that is often seen on television and generally splashed all over the local media. Dr. Alexander seems like a great doc whose helped lots of Green Bay area folks to see better.

Also part of the local media is the radio voice of the Green Bay Packers, Wayne Larrivee.

Dr. Alexander, I think you need to connect with Mr. Larrivee. Because of some family functions I was forced to listen to the last 6 minutes of the Packer game in the car, and during that time I heard Wayne make two touchdown calls that were both incorrect, making me look stupid in front of the kids, as I explained what touchdowns are and why it was good news that the Packers were scoring them.

Or wait, they didn’t.

Ok, now they did.

Older child gives dad the “whatever” look and goes back to playing with toys.

First it was James Jones on 4th and goal, then later it was the Barnett interception. Please, Dr. Alexander. This is a code blue.  I don’t need anymore help looking stupid in front of small people.
