		<title>Brad Childress Receives Contract Extension.  Chillyball Thru 2013.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[ESPN is reporting that Brad Childress has received a contract extension through the 2013 season, which will pay him between $4 and $5 million per year.
In other words, barring any unforeseen changes in the team&#8217;s fortunes, Chillyball will be in effect long after Brett Favre is gone, and even after the Metrodome lease has expired, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Brett Favre, Mad Ass-Slapper</title>
		<description><![CDATA[


What&#8217;s better than Favre Cam?  How about Favre wearing a mic?  Favre slapping his teammates on the ass?  Favre playfully taunting defensive linemen?  Favre funning Sidney Rice for having 200 yards and no touchdowns?

		<title>A Vikings Viewing Party&#8230;in Iraq</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The Vikings are having a great season, and some of the folks cheering them on are doing so from half a world away, in the middle of Iraq.
Thanks to the magic of satellite TV, Viking fans from the 34th Infantry Division got to enjoy Sunday&#8217;s victory over the Lions from the comfort of a tent [...]]]></description>

		<title>10 Points: Lions @ Vikings</title>
		<description><![CDATA[10 points on the Vikings&#8217; somewhat mistake-ridden victory over the Lions&#8230;
1.  The Vikings have not been dogged by penalties this year; in fact, they were one of the least-penalized teams going into Sunday&#8217;s game.  This was a somewhat stunning reversal from recent years when the team basically drove us nuts by getting called for dumb [...]]]></description>

		<title>Vikings Video: Phillip Buchanon Catches Adrian Peterson from Behind, Pops Ball Out</title>
		<description><![CDATA[


Not AD&#8217;s most shining moment.  I guess he didn&#8217;t think anyone could catch him and relaxed his hold on the ball.

		<title>Not the Way They Drew it Up</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The Vikings ended up winning handily against the Lions, but that doesn&#8217;t mean things went according to plan.
Unless the plan included getting called for 13 penalties for 91 yards, seeing Adrian Peterson fumble twice and having the one-win Lions stay in the game until the early fourth quarter.
Luckily for the Vikings, every time it looked [...]]]></description>

		<title>I Guess They Were Rusty?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The Vikings dominated the first half vs. the Lions, at least on the statsheet.  That domination might have extended to the scoreboard had the team not committed a series of boneheaded gaffes.
It started early, with Jim Kleinsasser getting called for a false start that cost the team a chance to punch the ball into the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Week 10: Lions @ Vikings &#8211; Halfway Home</title>
		<description><![CDATA[When last we saw the Vikings on the field, they were fending off the scrappy but overmatched Packers to sweep that particular season series and bump their record to 7-1.
Since then, the Bears and Packers have both suffered more embarrassing losses and fallen further behind.  As we roll into Week 10, the NFC North race [...]]]></description>

		<title>Crazy Fran Zeroes in on Cutler</title>
		<description><![CDATA[When Fran Tarkenton criticizes quarterbacks, people listen, and often get very angry.
This summer, after Fran made negative remarks about Brett Favre, saying he could never accept the former Packer legend as a Viking, certain (unthinking and ungrateful) members of Purple Nation made Tarkenton numero uno on their crazy Kool-Aid drinker shit-list, calling him all sorts [...]]]></description>

		<title>Winfield Will Sit vs. Lions, and I&#8217;m Glad</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Antoine Winfield got back onto the practice field this week, for the first time since injuring his foot early in the Vikings&#8216; win over the Ravens.
Mostly Winfield was just testing the foot to see how it felt, and did not participate in any drills.  This should&#8217;ve been the first hint that he was not seriously [...]]]></description>
