With all due respect to what you and yours went through, that was not a defeat, that was a miraculous triumph by an incredible little girl if you ask me. Then again, when you refer to the last 1.5 year I could be mistaken on what you're referring to.

I'm more of a fairweather fan when it comes to the Bucks and Brewers. I always pull for them, but just not huge into those sports. If the Brewers or Bucks have a player I like, I'll catch quite a few games. If they don't have a player I like and I have something else to do ... I'll do that instead.

When it comes to Badgers and Packers, it's on.

I'm not sure how I got us to this point in a thread about Donovan McNabb going to the Vikings, lol.


Edit, very true, being told how you'd react to something is awfully annoying.

I assumed you meant exodus as the wave of purple walking out of the Dump to beat the traffic out of Minneapolis due to the 35-14 beating the Vikings were taking. After you see those beatings, especially to the hands of a hated rival, and have the crushing losses like '98, '09, etc etc etc, sometimes its not worth sticking around through a forth quarter of beat-down.

I certainly didn't think you meant it as people actually giving up their Viking fandom.

I admit that my Viking fandom has waned in recent years. But that has nothing to do with the Vikings themselves, instead I've started to really enjoy college football that much more than the NFL game. That and the recent lockout/strike left a really bitter taste in my mouth.

Facts are, the Packers have sold out every game for a long time. And the team didn't have to "buy" tickets to make them sell outs. So some people didn't show up to the game. So what?
They may have VERY valid reasons for not being able to use their tickets.
A few empty seats doesn't mean squat.

Are Packer fans more "fans" then in other states? I don't know. I know many rabid fans of other teams. Formo is one of them. And i don't expect him to become a Packer fan any more then i would become a Vikings fan.
The only reason i would want him to become a Packer fan is because he's a great guy, and deserves to KNOW what it feels like to back a winning team.
Fact is, he's a loyal fan of HIS team, and not a "fair weather fan".
You gotta respect that!
