Vikes-Cards Week 13 game flexed...

To the 8:20 ET NBC game.

From ESPN:

The Cardinals' Week 13 game against the Vikings has been flexed into the 8:20 p.m. ET slot on NBC.

This comes as no surprise.

The game was previously scheduled for 4:15 p.m. ET.

The change allows NBC to bask in the Brett Favre ratings bonanza. It also reflects the Cardinals' increased relevance.

Game is at Arizona, but considering the Cards are 5-0 on the road this year and T-Jack torched them last year it should be a W for our Beloved Purple.

Bears fans staying classy...

Looks like a few of our Windy City friends got a bit out of hand after they beat the Steelers early in the season.

Report from PFT on an altercation between Bear and Steeler fans at a local Chicago bar, apparently the two sides were jawing with each other after the game. Bears fans decided to make peace by offering a free drink (that had a whole hell of a lot more than booze in it)

Steeler fan poisoned?

Not sure if it's been discussed...

But why the blue hell didn't we go for 2 after the Berrian TD? With points as difficult to come by as they were yesterday, and with the game already well into the 3rd quarter, I thought we would obviously go for it. Damn near lost it 10-9, then everyone would have been discussing it a lot more.

Another Childress bonehead move? Or am I making too big a deal out of this?
