No, my sources say we will keep the Paul Bunyan's Axe again this year.
And I am Ready 4 Revenge on Monday.

Mkay then.
I’ll be happy just as long as the Twins make it to the playoffs. That means I can watch baseball for at least another week.
But seriously, you think the Packers are going to win Monday night? C’mon Mike. Get real. Adrian Peterson is going to run for 900 yards and score 12 touchdowns.
I'm not being serious there.
I haven’t made my picks for the NFL action this week, but I do intend to pick Minnesota over Green Bay.
I am still Ready 4 Revenge, however.
