Sports can certainly be confusing and make your head spin. Life is challenging enough, so why make it any harder?

The Last Night’s Game Team
College Football
This weekend in college football was bananas. Yep, bananas. An unranked Arizona State beat Oregon (#6) and Ohio State (#2) remained undefeated against Penn State (#9). Why does that matter? Well we’re getting down to the end of the season and the top four ranked teams will be the only teams to move on to the playoffs. Everyone else, if they’re eligible, can play in a bowl game (i.e. bring in some serious cash for their school’s football program). UPSET THE WHOLE APPLE CART
Overtime
Thanksgiving came early for one Chicago Bears (NFL) fan who snuck an entire pumpkin pie into yesterday’s game. A video posted to Twitter showed him enjoying the pie with an entire can of whipped cream. No word on where or how he smuggled the pie into the stadium. A HERO WE NEVER KNEW WE NEEDED
Sideline stat
Canadian winters just became a little more tolerable for one Winnipeg Blue Bombers (Canadian Football League) fan. You might recall the story about Chris Matthew who pledged to not wear pants until his team won the Grey Cup. After a long 18 years of bearing his stems during the winter, Matthew can finally be warm again because his team beat the Hamilton Tiger-Cats in the Grey Cup (the CFL Championship) last night. NO MORE NO PANTS DANCE

On Friday, we talked about Lizzo’s mystery man on the Minnesota Vikings (NFL) and today we reveal another Minnesota mystery. Did you know the inventor of the NERF football was none other than a Minnesota Viking himself, kicker Fred Cox? The all-time leading scorer for the Vikings recently passed at the age of 80. IF ONLY NERF EXISTED FOR MARSHA BRADY
