The Chicago Bears, Green Bay Packers, Pittsburgh Steelers and NY Jets are all one game closer to the Super Bowl. All teams are excited, but Jets Bart Scott took it to a whole other level….
Brett Favre left yesterday’s Minnesota Vikings-Chicago Bears game with a head concussion. During the second quarter, Bears tight end Corey Woottman sacked Favre, causing Favre to watch the rest of the game from the sideline as the Bears beat the Vikings 40-13. Favre missed his first start in 18 years last week with a sprained SC joint in his right shoulder. All signs point that Favre’s career is over, even telling the Minneapolis Star-Tribune, “I don’t know with this concussion, based on my decision-making, I probably shouldn’t tell you one way or the other right now. I don’t regret it. I wish it would have turned out differently.”

The roof of the Metrodome will not be repaired by Monday’s Minnesota Vikings-Chicago Bears game. On Sunday, snow collapsed the roof of the team’s stadium, and Vikings officials have asked the NFL for the game to be played at University of Minnesota’s TCF Bank. The new location would allow the game to still be played in the Vikings’ home state, the only problem is they are having trouble shoveling all the snow in time for the game.
In some areas, the snow is as much as five feet deep, and now Vikings fans are being asked to help shovel. The University of Minnesota is looking for volunteers from Thursday-Sunday to shovel out snow from the bleachers, concourse and football field.
While you will not be paid for your manual labor, don’t worry the university will supply you shovels.

Watch out Tom Brady…. it seems legendary football coach Mike Ditka maybe your competition as the new spokesman for UGGs. Ditka might just be the only guy to win a Super Bowl as a player, assistant coach and coach and wear UGGs. Bear Down!
