A lament from a foul-weather Minnesota Vikings fan
I was never a real athlete, but my favorite childhood memories were of the winter, playing football with my brother and neighbors. I remember the ecstasy of tackling in my brother in the snow. I recall the day I dived for a pass and probably would have caught it. But I landed face first in a pile of snow; the shock made me drop the ball.
