Another busy month, here are the highlights:
1) Happy New Year with the Kellys, Okerlunds & Duncans. The annual bash was great
2) Vick's Nyquil: When I needed him most, Michael Vick is asleep in a dream matchup against the Vikings, and the Halftime Show loses the Peske Bowl. That's three straight 2nd place finishes for Rush and I...but this after a 1-5 start. Burned by the Vikings yet again...unreal.
3) Xavi robbed: Lionel Messi wins the Ballon d'Or as the world's finest soccer player for 2010. Sure, he did score a whopping 58 goals during the calendar year, but did NOTHING during the World Cup. Spain won the World Cup and could not have done so without Xavi, in my opinion the games most dominant player, and a guy who was called the greatest central midfielder in football history by a columnist for Goal.com.
4) The 52 dates adventure begins with trips to Grand Szechuan, Town Talk Diner, Leann Chin and The Blue Nile...more updates on that to come.
5) Greta has her first orchestra concert...a video posting to follow.
6) Brian has his first CC skiing event: -16 degrees at bib pickup time, 4 for race time. He is nervous, sick, dehydrated....and cold.

Vikings go outdoors!
The Vikes are headed outdoors for the first time in 29 years! The team and the U are prepping TCF Bank Stadium for the MNF game with the Bears. The video preceding this post explains why it's needed. A rare opportunity to watch the NFL outdoors in Minnesota, but if they tear the roof off the dome and install real grass, this could be a regular deal. My friend Steve Rushin penned an excellent article for SI this week to put the doomed dome to rest: http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2010/writers/steve_rushin/12/15/metrodome/index.html
