Michigan Vs Nebraska Photo Highlight Reel

But memories can do something else. They can clear your mind and give you a better view of the present, too. And that brings me to what happened on Sunday afternoon, as the Minnesota Vikings beat the Detroit Lions on a last-second field goal, 19-17.

Yes, another last-second field goal.

Unbelievable. But at least this one didn't need a bounce.

I always get nostalgic when I go to Minnesota because I covered the Vikings as a beat writer for the St. Paul Pioneer Press when Randy Moss was starting out in the league.
