Today's Inactives

Minnesota

S Mike Doss
QB Kelly Holcomb (#3 QB)
T Chase Johnson
TE Garrett Mills
DE Jayme Mitchell
WR Sidney Rice
FB Naufahu Tahi
CB Antoine Winfield

Green Bay

LB Desmond Bishop
WR Shaun Bodiford
CB Will Blackmon
S Nick Collins
TE Bubba Franks
DT Justin Harrell
T Tony Moll
DT Daniel Muir

Bollinger WILL get the start at QB today.

Don't like Rice and Winfield being out. Oh, well, with Peterson and Taylor pounding the ball all afternoon, the Packers' defense will eventually just give up their will to fight back. . .much like the Chargers did last week.

Opening Kickoff

Team Worthless kicks it to Troy Williamson, who brings it out to the 29-yard line.

Vikings ball, 1st and 10.

Three and out

Team Worthless manages to stop Adrian Peterson. Not a trend I'd expect to continue.

Kluwe punts to Charles Woodson, who does a whole lot of nothing and manages to get the ball out to the 18-yard line.

grow a pair

4th and 1 and the best rb in the league.. 3-5 looking for an identity... lets punt. I didn't know that Women were coaching in the nfl these days!

Team Worthless Driving

Looks like they're going for it on 4th and 3 from the Minnesota 34.

8:15 left in the first quarter when we come back from commercial.

Touchdown, Team Worthless

30-yard TD run by some useless running back. Drive was sustained on a horse crap call when Team Worthless' resident drunk caught a pass short of the first down marker on 4th and 3.

7-0, Team Worthless, 7:18 left in the first quarter.

Well done

Team Worthless' idiot kicker puts the ensuing kickoff out of bounds, because he sucks.

1st and 10, Vikings, from their own 40 when we come back from commercial.

Vikings punt it away

Kluwe puts the ball into the end zone. I guess he can't be perfect all the time.

Team Worthless will start at their own 20 when we come back.

Team Worthless 7, Vikings 0, 4:44 left in the first quarter.

Team Worthless Punts

And their useless punter puts it into the end zone.

1st and 10, Vikings, when we come back.

Team Worthless 7, Vikings 0, 1:20 left in the first quarter.

End of the First Quarter

Vikings with 3rd and 6 from their own 35 when we get back.

Team Worthless 7, Vikings 0 with one quarter in the books.

Vikings Punt

Kluwe blasts one to Charles Worthless inside the Green Bay 10, and he proceeds to get chased down by Heath Farwell. That's more like what I'm used to seeing from #5.

Team Worthless 7, Vikings 0, 14:43 left until halftime.

Great game so far

We can't stop Team Worthless on 3rd down.

We can't convert our own 3rd downs.

I'm surprised that we're only down 7-0.

Vikings Hold

39-yard field goal makes it 10-0.

6:30 left until halftime.

Vikings Punt Again

Thus far, Bollinger has completed 3 passes.

For a total of 7 yards.

Pathetic.

Kluwe gets off another great punt, and it's returned to the 19.

10-0, 2:50 left until halftime.

Add on another field goal

13-0 at halftime.

And they get the ball to start the second half.

We should be down by about 80.

Key first half stats

Time of Possession: Green Bay 19:59, Minnesota 10:01

Third downs: Green Bay 4/8, Minnesota 0/4

Yeah, that explains why we're losing.

Touchdown, Them

20-0, Packers.

This isn't even a freaking football game any more. This is a joke.

27-0

The mugging continues.

I think I'm pretty well finished with this game. If you folks want to discuss this travesty, feel free.

Never

Have i Seen a offensive plan consisting of runs and 1 yard passes... The whole game...Its called a play action pass....Fire Childress NOW...

Well, there's the cherry on the sundae

Peterson catches a screen pass from Bollinger, gets hit low by a Packer, and. . .well, he hasn't gotten up yet.

He's still down. . .at least he's sitting up now.

Now he's walking off.

Great. . .just fucking great.

This Game

Was doomed when the front office decided to crap on the whole team by fining Troy for attending to family matters. Nothing says classless like kicking someone when they're down. The Purple will have to overpay middle level FA just to get them here if they keep this coaching staff.
