It's the final countdown...(man I hate that song)

So in exactly one week from this very moment (ok minus a few minutes) the Vikings play their first game of the pre-season. I am so damn excited. I'm having football withdrawals and it's driving me crazy. I even watched ESPN today because they had some football special on. I'm contemplating watching the football game on Monday night even though the Vikings aren't playing just so I can watch a football game finally. I can smell the chili already...
