I saw a highlight of a pro football game this past Sunday (Oct. 28th) that featured a muffed punt. The kicker made a really awkward attempt to recover the ball, but the other team got it and scored a touchdown. I don't know which teams played in this game, the channel that showed the clip, or where it originally aired. Anybody know which game this was, or even better knows of a video link to the play in question? [more inside]

When was this football game and how can I get a copy of it? The game was Minnesota Vikings vs. Dallas Cowboys, sometime in the the mid 1970's, I think. It remains the most unusual game I have ever seen, with Minnesota doing many innovative and strange things to confuse Dallas, like lining up all to the right of center, passing on all four downs, etc. Anyone who saw this game would remember how unusual it was.

Technical/pedantic football (soccer) question: In tonight's Albania v Holland Euro 2008 qualifier, six minutes of stoppage time was indicated, if I am not mistaken. However, the referee blew the final whistle after what I believe was less than 94 minutes, after a spectator threw fireworks at or near a player. This incident seemed to be the direct reason for the ref to call it a game. Given that according the Laws, the indicated stoppage time is a minimum, shouldn't this game technically be considered terminated or abandoned?
Bonus question: what exactly is the difference between a "terminated" and an "abandoned" game?

Looking for a fantasy football league, (soccer) English Premier League specifically, that offers head-to-head weekly matchups, an online draft and is free. The Yahoo league we ran last year was okay but it took weeks for player updates and the scoring was not always accurate. We're looking to upgrade for the right price. The season opener is quickly approaching so I need to get moving. Thanks.

I was watching the superbowl on Aussie TV the other night & when the captains came out for the coin-toss (are there really five or six captains per team?) it seemed that each one was cheered, except for one with an Islamic name (Mohammed something or something Mohammed), who was loudly booed. Anybody know the story behind this? Is he a dirty player, or something? Or just the wrong religion?
