An Ode to Adrian Peterson, Aka Purple Jesus

The Jesus

Adrian Peterson, aka Purple Jesus (thanks, KSK!), came through and saved like a thief in the night last week, much sooner than anyone expected. He might not have twelve apostles, but like Jesus he has 11 (10 offensive teammates and offensive coordinator Darrell Bevell) and one Judas (the opponent). He might not be from the actual Holy Land, but he does hail from a place called Palestine (Texas). Besides, he’s working on miracling the Vikes back to The Promised Land. The way he bobbled that difficult pass, hauled it in and took it to the house last week (video footage below) — he just as well could have been breaking bread or walking on water. We here at The Viking Age would have preferred a Big Ten Jesus, preferably a Golden Gopher, but we’re still glad he arrived Sooner than later. Praise him this Sunday from your HD sanctuary as he makes believers out of the Detroit Lions.

Ballhype: hype it up!
