A suspiscious substance of white powder of undetermined origin was found at Ford Field.
Team President Matt Millen whom couldn't fathom where the white powder had come from called in the DEA and FBI to investigate.
The investigation was called off once the authorities had determined the white powder to be the "Goal Line"

I used to watch the NBA on TV when i was a kid, and i always rooted for the Timberwolves, so now that i am in Minneapolis, i stuck with them. I watch the Vikings games during the NFL season so you can say i have been bit by the bug. As for Baseball and Hockey, i would rather watch paint dry.
Luckily we have FoxSports World on cable so i can keep up with the footy back home,
MOAN THE KILLIE!!

How do you keep Vikings off your front lawn???
Put a set of goalposts at the side of the kerb.

The points scoring system isnt set in stone, so it can be adjusted to suit our tastes.

Only 2 points for a blocked kick?? It's got to be worth more than that!

Sadly they don't show SPL stuff. Maybe they'll come up with a deal with Setanta to show Scottish games next season - if Setanta get enough subscribers in the UK....

Yeah, but they do show Sky Sports NEws and i can keep up to date there.
Looking forward to watching Celtic take apart Chelsea on Saturday in the World Champions Series (or whatever it is called)

Looks like our cable provider is going to be dropping FSW which is a bugger. I found that Sky Sports News hardly ever mentioned the SPL and the only highlights I saw last season were from the cup games that Sky broadcast live on the UK. Fox Sports Report showed them too.
