That was nothing, however, compared to the horrible shock of seeing the favored 49ers go belly-up against stupid little Arizona. It gave me a creepy feeling all over my body. The Vikings went from a position of comfortable control of the game, to a helpless mess of dunces who couldn't do anything right and the Giants suddenly looked like world-beaters. I gave six (6) points and got snuffed like a wet candle when Culpepper went nuts and started throwing the ball up for grabs. The unbeaten Minnesota Vikings were the first of many bets gone wrong.

No more of those warm summer days in the centerfield bleachers with no shirt and cold beer and Dolly Parton on the radio. Baseball is a sort of national fig leaf for the American spirit these days, but it withers away like smoke when the World Series finally ends, and the long hard slog of the football season is on us for real. The baseball season is over now, but the evil season is not.
