Red Bull soldiers will return just in time to cheer on Vikings
StarTribune ^ | 1/22/10 | MARK BRUNSWICK

Talk about timing. More than 1,000 members of the Minnesota Army National Guard's 34th Red Bull Infantry Division will begin returning to Minnesota, with four separate groups scheduled to arrive about 5 p.m. Sunday.

Um, anything else happening around that time?

The soldiers will be bused to armories in Rosemount, Inver Grove Heights and Stillwater. With any luck, TVs will be nearby.

Since May, the 34th Infantry Division provided command and control of military forces in the southern third of Iraq. Operating out of a base near Basra, the soldiers led a force of approximately 14,000 U.S. service members throughout nine of Iraq's 18 provinces.

Good for them and they deserve it. I’m a Vikes fan but Drew Brees is lights out.

FYI, Drew Brees visited Gitmo a year ago and was all for leaving those scumbag muzzies inside, and leaving Gitmo open...

Sad. He’s just leading them into having their you-know-what handed to them by the Colts and Payton Manning.

Face it, nothing beats cold, hard, precision passing with perfect preparation. Skill meets perfectionist in Manning. We shall see the end of whatever the NFC has to offer when they meet the Colts.

And so it shall passs.

Ummm, yeah..

Remind me again, who is the NFL's all-time TD passing leader?

And how many sacks does Jared Allen have this year...?

Cheers!

The only chance the Saints, Jets, or Colts have is if the Vikings have one of those rare off days they occasionally have. If all aspects are on track. You’ll know by half way through the third quarter that you have no hope and may as well just concede.

“Remind me again, who is the NFL’s all-time TD passing leader?”

Incidentally (???), the same guy with the most career interceptions.

“And how many sacks does Jared Allen have this year...?”

More sacks than Payton Manning has against him all year.

Luck?

The Vikings Team Management and owners should make sure there is a big flat screen there and give every returning Guardsman an Official Team Jersey to say Thank You.
