Week 7: Vikings @ Bears
If you had told me that the Vikings would score 41 points during their visit to Soldier Field, I would have bet the house on a Vikings victory. The Vikings managed to pack a season\’s worth of mistakes in one game. Both on and off the field.

\”The Business\”
From Jake, via The Big Lead: I consider this retroactive visual evidence for all the times in college people thought wadE and I were insane for referencing this incident. Plus, it still cracks me up.
