Great story on life, the Vikes, Cousins and fantasy football
#1
http://www.espn.com/fantasy/football/sto...nfl-season

Formed in 2005 in Fargo, North Dakota, the "Win the Battle" league is a 10-team non-PPR keeper league comprising a bunch of high school buddies. The teams play three WRs, no flex and you can keep up to two players a year, costing you a draft pick three rounds better than where you got the player the year before.
Their commissioner, Travis Anderson, has been playing for close to two decades in a lot of different leagues, but this league -- the one he's been in for more than a decade, the one filled with many of his closest friends, the one he runs -- is the most special to him.
A controller for a local bank and a lifelong Minnesota Vikings fan, Travis is 37 years old. He and his wife Donna have three sons: Andrew will be 6 in December, Jackson will turn 3 in January and Ethan is two weeks from his first birthday.
Husband, father, fantasy junkie.
Travis Anderson is one of us. Rest of the story at the link...

I read that yesterday...  hope our Vikings brother in Fargo beats it and is able to go to his first Vikings game courtesy of Cousin and the Vikings organization.

The Vikings are the #1 pro team here in Fargo, no doubt about it.  Any battle involving a glioblastoma brain tumor is one nobody should wish on their worst enemy.  I know this from personal experiences with a buddy and two family members.

Skol, Travis!
