The Giants versus the Vikings game has had to be moved after tons of snow broke through the roof of the Minneapolis Metrodome and spilled onto the field below. The cost of the damage has yet to be quoted.
American Football and NFL videos and TV stations
I seriously doubt that this type of play would work in the NFL, but i’m glad it worked out for these kids.
The opposing team must be training for revenge right now- the fact that a play like this worked is just embarrassing!

The Super Bowl is as American an event as you can get. It practically oozes stars and stripes and I’m afraid to say no one else in the world really gives a crap about it. However, the Super Bowl was invaded by the Brits yesterday, as The Who played the halftime show.
Sports fans all around the world are glued to their televisions waiting to discover you will take home this year’s Superbowl. Will victory belong to the Indianapolis Colts or the New Orleans Saints?
Honestly, I’m a rugby league loving Australian so I don’t really care. But I might get interested in the game if it were directed by some of Hollywood’s finest visionaries.

OK, so this video isn’t the Tim Tebow Super Bowl ad, mainly because that hasn’t been released yet. Instead, this is a bald man standing up for Tebow, his mom, CBS (which is due to air the ad), and the group bankrolling it.
I’m sorry, but the NFL and Prince just don’t mix. Why Prince chose to make a song for the Minnesota Vikings is beyond me- although, I have a uneasy feeling that it has something to do with their team colors.

When will the madness end?
A professional sportsman has to stick to a very specific diet to stay fit and healthy, and to stay in trim enough to be able to perform come game day.
But what if you get hungry during a game and need something to snack on? A health bar would be good, or maybe a drink of some isotonic sports drink. Or how about a hot dog smothered in mustard such as the one Mark Sanchez devoured during a game on Sunday?
Being British, I think of American football, or just football depending on your point of view, as a bit of a game for sissys. Why all the padding and helmets? You don’t get any of that in rugby.
However, this video shows why the helmet and padding is necessary, because when you get an elbow in the face from a big guy running at full pelt, it’s the only thing that’ll stop you from being paralyzed.
It’s a well-known fact where I live, Georgia Bulldog fans sound a lot like soldiers in the movie 300. And, as a Georgia resident I’m not really surprised by the insanity that comes out of this young man’s mouth in this pre-game “interview.”
