The NFL announced this afternoon that the Eagles-Vikings game set to take place tonight in Philadlephia will be postponed until Tuesday night because of the blizzard that is currently hitting the East Coast. Essentially, the city of Philadelphia sounds terrified of and unprepared for the snowattack that has yet to reach them (albeit, with good reason). It was the second time this season that the NFL has postponed a game because of snow, a rare occurrence in the league, and the third straight week of shuffled games for the cursed Vikings. To add to their bad luck, this delay may give Brett Favre a chance to throw three interceptions and leave the game early with a shoulder injury start at QB.
