This team is the only team in the entire league with a team name. I'm not making this up, the rest of the teams are sorted by their owner/coach, but not the self proclaimed Minnesota State Screaming Eagles. So, what does this squad have in common with the rest of the state? A: They're losers. Year in and year out.. even when they're close, they really aren't. Brian managed to win 4 games last year.. in 14. That means he also managed to lose double digit games which can be difficult to do in fantasy sports. So, without further ado, lets take a look at this bottom feeder.

Boy, this Brett Favre character really knows how to play with a man's heart. He's there, he's not, he's back, he's not, he's done for good.. PSYCH! He really isn't done, NOT! He is done! Today is opposite day, he's back! This is a legendary performance and my man, Brett, hasn't even taken the field yet. I'm so psyched; my friend called me that day.. and all I could think was they're baaaa-ack. Except instead of zombies, it was DB's screaming.

Well, that's disappointing. I've gotten a few Packers fans all riled up with my Favre and Away post and now he's staying retired.. OR so he says. Muuuahahah. I hope this isn't over, I can't get enough of this story.. it's so much better than the Michael Jackson coverage. Brett has done more, and if you don't think so.. you're wrong. Michael Jackson doesn't have a prayer after him I bet.. Brett does. It's no big deal, that's just who he is and why he will be missed.

ESPN has an unknown segment on nearly every edition of Sportscenter called "The Favre Watch," which chronicles the ins and outs of Brett Favre's possible return to the NFL. In Wisconsin, the fans don't even need ESPN because whether they are out camping or on the golf course having a few beers the Favre story finds them. Inevitably, it throws off their golf game as they miss an easy putt or break their wedge in the sand and somehow it's Favre's fault. And you know what? I am sick and tired of all of this "Brett is losing a fan here" talk because Brett Favre doesn't care if you're not his fan anymore. His only mission right now is to come back and stick it to Ted Thompson. The same Ted Thompson that ran him out of Green Bay, the same Ted Thompson that wanted to put his mark on the roster.. the same Ted Thompson that has shrewdly put together an impressive roster.. so darn impressive that Green Bay rattled off 6 wins last year. (I know, Favre can't stop the run.. Favre can't stop the pass.. Favre's not giving up 30 points a game.. Favre once won 4 games in a season.. but they were coming off a 13 win season.)

Once again as training camp approaches and teams start to get ready for the upcoming season most stories are the same with just the names being changed. Many first round picks have yet to sign with th

Thin-slicing. It is the act cutting through all extraneous information and getting to the key items that characterize something. Malcolm Gladwell wrote an entertaining and informative book on thin-slicing called Blink.

The debut of the Crypt Keeper was not a success. Two consecutive 2-2 records in the past two weeks (tongue twister yikes) keeps the overall record at .500 for the season. No worries though, I know success is on its way as the Crypt Keeper and I will go back to the drawing board to chalk up better predictions and analysis. With that said, let's see what happened in Week 9 of the NFL.

Week's Record: 2-2
*Classic NFL Films music hits*
1) Houston Texans @ Minnesota Vikings
The Texans are coming off a romp of the Cincinnati Bengals while the Vikings are fresh off a bye. A couple things that scare me being a Texans fan is Adrian Peterson and our run defense and the fact that Minnesota put up 41 points in Week 7 against a Bears defense. However the Texans have a couple things Minnesota fans can worry about: Andre Johnson and Mario Williams. Johnson has been absolutely ferocious as a receiver and Williams has been a sack master. Texans aren't a good road team and thats also a concern, but I'm picking them in this one as they'll win their 4th game in as many weeks getting them back to .500 after dropping their first four.

Week 7 is officially in the books as Tuesday, the 21st of October rolls around today. This week's Fallout report will cover the most interesting games from the week 7 slate in the National Football League. The alarm is going off in Big D as the Cowboys struggle for the second week in a row to find a win, the Vikings put up 41 in a loss, and Brett Farve gets the ball three times in overtime against the struggling Raiders, but can't chip any points in. I'll cover those happenings....right now!
