Almost a week later and I still am not feeling well. I have managed to somehow keep up with all my school work but I can't honestly tell you how. I spent most of the weekend sleeping. I am better, just not completely healthy.

I did watch the Super Bowl and thought it was an ok game. I was neutral as far as who should win, but in the end I am glad the Saints won (even though they beat my Vikings), as it was their first time. I had high hopes for the Vikings this year, Favre included. Then during the playoff game, the 19 year veteran made a rookie mistake with 12 seconds left in the game, leading to the game-ending interception. Heart-breaking for sure. I did find it rather funny that the next day when I checked my e-mail the very first one in the box was from the Viking Locker Room advertising 25% off Favre jerseys. Way to kick a guy when he is down. He has had a good run but I truly believe it is time for him to retire. He was pretty badly man-handled by the Saints, and got up slower every time.

Now let me assure you I have always been a Vikings fan. Heck I am even a Twins fan and they haven't done anything for years. Having been born in Minnesota, I have a soft spot in my heart for both teams. This may give away my age but my idols as a kid were Harmon Killebrew, Fran Tarkenton, and Tony Olivia!
