Is it just me, or is this week drrrrraging on and on and on?

While we are approaching my one-year anniversary since joining the staff at Vikings Gab, this is my first time covering a playoff game and I just have one thing to say:  Holy Crap!

I pride myself in being able to bring you complete coverage and analysis of the Vikings, but the sheer number of stories out there about this game is INSANE.  Between Chris, Todd, and myself we are working our butts off here to try and keep you updated on everything.  It feels like a second full-time job and for the first time ever I am getting kind of tired of reading about football!  And I still have this feeling that we’re missing plenty of good storylines.

So, for the first time ever, I am going to do my “Links of the Week” segment twice in one week.  So, while you are checking out some of these other sites, we’re going to go catch a nap and eat some bread.
