What went RIGHT for the Vikings
As Minnesota Vikings fans reel from the embarrassment of this week's game, they may get too pessimistic, as though there is no good news. They are likely overlooking these good points:
- Thanks to Philadelphia (go Eagles!) and Chicago, Minnesota's loss was not the worst of the day.
- 2-point conversion rate: 100%.
- Head Coach Mike Tice still believes in the team. So much so that, down almost 30 points with 3 minutes remaining, he opts to go for the onside kick. When that fails, he uses a timeout before the 2-minute warning to try to have enough time for the comeback.
- Both "Minnesota" and "Vikings" spelled correctly in the official program.
- Back-up quarterback Brad Johnson kept on sidelines to protect him from unnecessary risk of injury.
- String of quarters without an offensive score finally snapped at seven.
So it looks to be another great football season in Minnesota! Get on the bandwagon now--there's plenty of room.

You forgot the most important element of the game that went right for the Purple Pansies--the clock worked and the game ended! The quality of mercy was reflected in the accuracy of Bulova, thank goodness!
