Around the NFL (Week 14)

So the Giants vs. Vikings game is moving to Monday night at 8pm because of heavy blizzards in Minnesota (too much snow on the Metrodome apparently)

Game between New York Giants and Minnesota Vikings is moved to Monday night - ESPN New York

Pretty convenient that Favre gets an extra day to heal and continue his streak

Meanwhile, Chiefs sign Jamaal Charles to a contract extension

Kansas City Chiefs lock in Jamaal Charles with 5-year, $32.5 million deal - ESPN

The same Charles Cerrato refused to trade a 5th round pick for. Perry Riley or Jamaal Charles? Sometimes trading a draft pick isn't such a bad idea

Re: Around the NFL (Week 14)

Is it convenient that Favre gets more time to heal or is it convenient that the Giants get the benefit of more time to get ready for the game because they had been "stranded" in KC?

Given that the Vikings are sucking wind at the moment, I really tend to lean toward the second possiblility here - - when I allow myself to get down into conspiracy theories.

Heavy snow causes Metrodome roof to collapse in Minnesota - CNN.com

Quote:
In Minneapolis, the roof of the city's 64,000-seat football stadium caved in, its iconic dome no longer visible after more than 17 inches of snow blanketed the Twin Cities since Friday
17 inches is all it takes?... pussies

Pretty sure I had mentioned it last fall when it was proposed, maybe just did to a few people. Believe it may have been conditional up to a. 4th so maybe then we can't trade for McNabb and/or Brown I guess

The conditions Vinny needs for a trade involving draft picks to happen is that the player is old, a high round pick must be bunched in, and that the player needs to be famous(i.e former Pro Bowler). Jamaal Charles wasn't any of those at the time. He wasn't an "offseason winner".:cheeky-sm

NFL.com news: Favre's streak could be over as QB tells people he likely can't go

I hope people get to watch Bears vs. Pats, it's looking pretty good despite the sh*tty weather (although that will make it interesting).
