A team of Irish archaeologists is puzzled by the “bizarre” discovery of a 1,150-year-old Minnesota Viking helmet in a cave in the Ireland.

Besides being the largest by far — up to 12 times larger than a NY Giant`s helmet, the team is puzzled by how such a “high-punter” Viking helmet came to lie in the Ireland, an area never settled by the Swedes, who had long hang times and never missed a P.A.

Speculation is that the helmet was owned by a previously unknown Fighting Irish kicker named Le`mee Kick, whose legend has been preserved in the many pubs in the city of Limerick named after him.

:’) 1,150 years ago... that was Favre’s rookie year, but he wasn’t playing there at the time.
