Minnesota Vikings fans watch the game during the fourth quarter of their 31-7 loss to the New England Patriots.

Updated 10:57 a.m.
Vikings' fearful symmetry: Coming off last weekend's 31-13 rout of the Seattle Seahawks, the Vikings bit the dust last night as the Patriots buried them, 31-7. QB Brad Johnson's three interceptions and a sack got him replaced in the fourth quarter by Brooks Bollinger, who suffered three sacks in a row ...and an interception. The hometown papers are not pleased. Gloat if you must:

Worse than what? Bad-taste Irwin costume sparks fury: From The Age, Australia,

American comedian Bill Maher has outraged Steve Irwin fans by attending Halloween parties dressed as the late entertainer and conservationist, with a fake stingray barb protruding from his blood-stained khaki shirt.

Irwin died last month in a freak accident when a stingray barb pierced his heart while he was filming a nature documentary off Port Douglas in Queensland.

Outrage? It's Halloween, and Bill Maher, who had a show called "Politically Incorrect." You expected a simple Transylvanian dripping blood?
