I got excited last year, even though I think Favre is the Anti-Christ. I'm still annoyed about the Saints phantom TD in the NFC title game.
I've gotten used to disappointment. My Vikes could screw things up with Jesus under center and Buddha lead blocking.
Having said that, they're going to embarass the Cowgirls.

The scoring record was 1998, the 15-1 season. I was at the NFC title game. That was the quietest I've ever heard 65000 people. VERY disheartening. I still blame Billick's playcalling for costing them that game.

Last year hurt, as well. Another game that they were on the brink.

I may end up disappointed every year, but I will not stop being a fan or cheering for them.

I was at a tech conference at the Disney Resort in Orlando. I watched the game at a bar with a bunch of guys from the NY office of the company I was working for at the time. And I may have been talking some smack since the Vikes had been steamrolling teams all season. Awkward.

Great post. Was not quite an embarrassment but I'll take it.

Thanks. Hopefully AP has a good game this week. He's run pretty well against the Pack in the past.

I'm just hoping that Jared Allen keeps up his destruction of Rodgers like last year. If we get pressure on him game over. They have no running game to speak of and Jared had him jumpy.
