Links of the Day 12/18/11

Seriously, how can you have Vikings-Saints as your only game on and NOT think, just for a moment, it would be nice if the Vikings weren't around.

How much more money do the Twins have to spend?

James Harrison takes concussions and his responsibility very seriously.

Kim Clijsters had a bad idea this week.

SCOREBOARD
New Mexico Bowl
Temple 37, Wyoming 15 - Games like this make you wonder if the Mountain West may not be as good as thought. Still, the Cowboys should be proud of the season, especially after a rough year last year.
NCAAB
Butler 67, Purdue 65 - This game hurts. Butler is not very good this year.
North Dakota State 93, Mayville State 50 - I wonder why Mayville State is always playing these D-1 games and getting absolutely destroyed every time.
NCAAF
North Dakota State 35, Georgia Southern 7 - The Bison absolutely trucked the Eagles on their way to the Championship, versus Sam Houston State.
NHL
New York Islanders 2, Minnesota 1 (SO) - The Wild are without about 20 players, so the fact that they only lost in a shootout is pretty good.
