Record Setting

Watching this past Monday's Bears v. Vikings game, I was taken by two events.  I had hoped the knock-out of Brett Favre in the first quarter would end the unbelievable fawning the ESPN idiots were carrying out.  This didn't stop them at all.  They continued throughout the game.  There were a large number of shots of Favre bundled up on the sideline, giving them another chance to bow at the Crocs of the game's biggest hype monger.  For anyone outside of Minneapolis, it was sickening and infuriating.  Thank gawd Jerry Angelo drafted Corey Wooten this season.  He tamed what would have been even more intolerable by game's end, if that is possible.

On the far more positive side was Devin Hester's record breaking 14th career kick return for a touchdown.  In 211 fewer games than the previous record holder, Brian Mitchell, Hester scored his 14th touchdown.  He has had an amazing career and will likely continue for some time to come.  This touchdown came on the heels of an almost score that saw him tackled on the six yard line.  There's nothing I can type that can equal seeing all fourteen TDs.

So congrats Devin Hester.  Keep 'em coming.
