ESPN: The trip to Europe blew chunks for the Vikings

Good for the Vikings for taking one for the league.... How do I think they would have done if they had to go to Pitt and Dawg Pound? I probably would have guessed .500, exactly what the euro trip produced. Now they  got to get the walking wounded back and just get re-grounded. Oh, and figure out if JJM can play vs Philly or not

Pulling out the Cleveland game was huge, 3-2 is a workable record. But these next 4 games are concerning, its big boy football and I don't know if the Vikings are big boys. And like you say, I expect JJ to start against Philly but I don't think its 100% yet. Need as many of the walking wounded to return as possible. A big questions is if AVG is going to return this year, neck injuries are real bears.

I have heard nothing but bad things regarding the food in Ireland and England

Beans on toast, cabbage, potatoes, fried fish, sometimes sausage, English breakfast: its all shit. Their biscuits are dry garbage. Bubble and squeak (yuck). English tea (gross). If you get a chance to try Haggis....don't. Although that's Scottish. Those two countries are definitely not known for their cuisines. I'll take some bread and butter pudding, however.
