So.................I'm subbing this morning in the resource room (kids that need extra help) and this kid comes in with a Minnesota Viking Jersey on that has "Anderson" on the back. This refers to Colt Anderson from the Montana Grizzlies who signed a contract with the Vikes for next year. Now, I'm all for Colt who was a three time All American at safety for the Griz, from Butte MT, but when this kid rubs it in my face, what am I to do?

Being the quick thinker I am, I told him to sit down NOW! and get ready for a test.

"Get a sheet of paper and put your name at the top, Matt." (that gave him a clue as to his name.)

"Now, you've got two minutes to list how many Super Bowls the Vikings have won." "And for extra credit, name the years they won.!"

Matt gets to thinking and about 30 seconds in he starts writing like mad. I'm trying to hold back my laughter as well is another 5th grader who is an NFL guru. Matt finishes and I take his paper and look at it.

WOWWWWWW!!!! The Vikings won the Super Bowl in 1968, '72' 76' 85' and 2006. I took Matt into the teachers lounge and got him a soda and a snack and said, "Matt, you were close. However, the Vikes have yet to hold the Lombardi Trophy in their hands, and chances are they never will in mine or your lifetimes."

We gave each high fives, went back to the room and got into our spelling words. HOW DO YOU SPELL LOSERS?

Yeh, bold but beautiful. Matt and I have a working agreement. He disses the Pack and I give him extra homework.....like researching Lombardi, Starr, Ringo, Thurston, Taylor, Dowler, MacGee, etc. etc. etc.

I'm 66; Matt is 11........Vikings Super Bowl is never gonna happen.

That is comical Bob! I love your stories. he will tell that story about his great sub teacher long after you are gone....and long before the Vikings ever win a Lombardi.


By the way, they just might win the SB this year, But it will take a Packer to do it!

Great story Bob.

You can't take him out though. The boy has shown incredible talent...a talent that will do folks in Minnesota a great service.

The Vikings won the Super Bowl in 1968, '72' 76' 85' and 2006.



That is some high-level creative writing.

I think his genre is fantasy science fiction sports. It is not technically a genre yet, but this is what youth are for, after all. This kid could be the Einstein of Vikings bullshit, for all we know.

It's just an opinion, you go ahead and do what's right.

If you decide to just go ahead and eliminate him, I for one will understand.

Kind of like the terminator movies, stop this crap in it's tracks, before it's too late.

Hmm...

Or contemporary fantasy with a sports emphasis? That would put him in the same genre as Harry Potter, but Harry Potter is a tad bit more realistic.
