Sports-Poor-e

Touching on a bit of everything

- I think Lebron James quit on his team in the last two games they played. He should not be mentioned in the talk of best player in the NBA

- The NHL giving Phoenix & the Coyotes until December 31st to find an owner to keep them in the desert. If not, the Winnipeg Jets could be back in the 2011-12 season

- Brett Favre getting ankle surgery pretty much assures his return.

- Looks like Philly vs 'Hawks for the Cup. Come on Chicago!

- Enjoying my Coo Coo Fantasy Baseball team, ready for some Football though.

- Refinding my love of baseball, come on Twins, Rays, & Bucs

- I love all the aspects of the Indy 500, including qualifying & Carboration Day

- I am jacked for the World Cup & Tour de France

Monty's Outside Toss

My new weekly installment, covering my football thoughts.


I have been a Vikings' fan since the beginning of my life. My first Vikings memory is watching the Vikes play the Bears at Soldier Field in 1986, with my dad. The Vikings of 1987, may not have been the best team, but they are my all-time favorite.


The 1987 Vikings had Anthony Carter, Joey Browner, Chris Doleman, Scott Studwell, & Hassan Jones. Their 3 Quarterbacks were Tommy Kramer, Wade Wilson, & Rich Gannon. I even remember the Punter: Bucky Scribner.


They beat the New Orleans Saints 44-10 at the Super Dome in the Wild Card Round. Then they beat the 49ers in San Francisco due to an unbelievable game by Anthony Carter. They lost 17-10 to the Redskins, when Darrin Nelson was stopped at the 1 on 4th & Goal.


Like I said, I was born a Viking fan. That '87 season was when I became a Vikings fan.
