Someone Other Than Kornheiser Stinks On Monday Night Football

Hoo boy, I love it when ESPN’s Monday Night Football crew gets stuck with a real stinker of a game. And the contest between the Bears and Vikings last night night smelled about as good as week-old headcheese left out in the sun.

The main aromatic offender last night was Chicago quarterback Kyle Orton, aka The Neckbeard, who was 22 of 38 for 184 yards with an interception. Under his direction, the Bears offense produced a total of 209 yards and was one of 14 on third downs, resulting in nine punts. Hey Lovie Smith, are you sure Griese shouldn’t have been your number one QB?

Of course the Norsemen of Minnesota weren’t a whole lot better. Despite the pre-game hype about Adrian “All Day” Peterson and the emerging Tavaris Jackson, the Vikes trailed until a fourth quarter touchdown, turned the ball over four times, and sent the punt unit on the field seven times. “All Day” finished with 78 yards but it took all day to get there, while young QB Jackson tossed three picks.

So the Vikings are likely headed for a first round loss to Seattle in the playoffs, while the defending NFC Champion Bears are headed back into the scrap bin for a few years. In a word, it was painful, but at least all those numbskulls who were predicting some kind of shootout between “All Day” and the non-factor Devin Hester got what they deserved.
