I've never once said the Vikings choked in that game. I have however said Favre choked, and i will continue to over and over until he retires for good. 🙂

BAD EMAIL because the address couldn ot be found, or is unable to receive mail.

Yeah, I agree with what others said. That's just what we football fans too. I still think the Vikings are a better team all the way around, but that doesn't mean they are excused from some hazing for losing a game they could have won due to a bunch of silly turnovers. It was a "choke" in my opinion. Call it beating yourself if you'd like, but it's pretty much the same thing to me. The Saints played a hell of a game, but 2-3 fewer turnovers that were somewhat preventable, and they win.

I'm gonna go find a Vikings fan right now and talk some smack. Hopefully they do it right back about our "weak" O-line and our secondary being torched by Favre!

I can admit this and it doesn't bother me at all. I enjoy watching the Vikings lose as much as watching the Packers win. When they lose like they did in the 1998 and 2009 NFC championship games, it gives me feelings of euphoria.

The reason for this disturbed behavior is that the majority of Viking fans are bandwagon wishy washy fucksticks who talk shit and don't even understand the game.

I see what you're saying iron, but I view this as a component of a larger picture.

Vikings fans and their team are in fact a bunch of 'fucksticks' who have a history of blowing golden opportunities (4sb, '98, '09, 41-0 loss to Giants in playoffs), so I proudly admit my 'shadenfreude' anytime another chapter of ineptitude is added to the viking's history book!

Musccy nailed it. I think having lived in Viking territory my entire life has added to it. I take great pleasure in their misfortunes. The only thing that really irks me is when opposing fans celebrate an injury. One of my proudest moments as a Packer fan was in Voldemort's last season with our team and we were playing Minnesota at Lambeau. Peterson went down with a leg injury. He was on the turf for a while and it was very intense. When he got up and walked off the field, 70,000 fans cheered their asses off for him. Packer fans are classy fans. Packer fans are football fans.

Holy Shit.....musccy is back! Where you been, man?

As to the Queens....after sex and Green Bay victories, nothing provides as much pleasure as watching the Queens lose. I live in the Twin Shitties, and this team and its fans...if you can call this bunch of bandwagoners fans.....are damn near intolerable.

Example: The last few years, they almost had to black out the home opener because the games were not sold out. The local network carrying the game, fearing loss of ad revenue, had to buy the remaining tickets up to get the game aired. Hell, man....this was the home opener...before the team even had a chance to suck or embarrass themselves with historically persistent bad off-field behavior!!

Worthless, fickle, unknowledgeable fans and a historically dysfunctional team....what is not to hate?

I actually agree with IronMan.

There is a part of dealing with Viking fans that will always be "nanner nanner nanner" -- until they win a Super Bowl.

But the fact of the matter is that they beat us twice last year. And not just beat us, but beat us fairly soundly.

Yes, they lost the game to the Saints, and that's cool. And worth a bit of ribbing. Oh, ok, more than a bit. :)

But to say they choked is a bit lame. A boneheaded play by one player on the final drive is not a team "choking".

In the end, it's head to head that should matter most in a rivalry. And head-to-head, much as I hate the idea, the viking fans have (temporary) bragging rights.

And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

Tezzy....love the T-shirt on your photo!! Yes, they do have some hot cheerleaders. Still does not make up for all the stupid shit that occurs both on and off the field with this bunch....and in the stands amongst their "fans".

He was on the turf for a while and it was very intense. When he got up and walked off the field, 70,000 fans cheered their asses off for him. Packer fans are classy fans. Packer fans are football fans.

But those same fans turned around and booed a so called Packer legend on his return.

I was cheering for the Vikings to win it all, for one it would have been the end for Favre and 2 it would have meant one of our divisional teams one. If we can't win I perfer someone from our division does

Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)

Fan Shout

beast (5h) : Sounds like no serious injuries from the Saints game and Jacobs and Watson should play in the Vikings game

packerfanoutwest (10h) : both games Watson missed, Packers won

Martha Careful (12h) : I hope all of you have a Merry Christmas!

Mucky Tundra (22h) : Oh I know about Jacobs, I just couldn't pass up an opportunity to mimic Zero lol

buckeyepackfan (22h) : Jacobs was just sat down, Watson re-injured that knee that kept him out 1 game earlier

buckeyepackfan (22h) : I needed .14 that's. .14 points for the whole 4th quarter to win and go to the SB. Lol

Mucky Tundra (22h) : Jacobs gonna be OK???

Zero2Cool (22h) : Watson gonna be OK???

packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : Inactives tonight for the Pack: Alexander- knee Bullard - ankle Williams - quad Walker -ankle Monk Heath

packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : No Jaire, but hopefully the front 7 destroys the line of scrimmage & forces Rattler into a few passes to McKinney.

packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : minny could be #1 seed and the Lions #5 seed

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : We'd have same Division and Conference records. Strength of schedule we edge them

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I just checked. What tie breaker?

bboystyle (23-Dec) : yes its possible but unlikely. If we do get the 5th, we face the NFCS winner

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Ahh, ok.

bboystyle (23-Dec) : yes due to tie breaker

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I mean, unlikely, yes, but mathematically, 5th is possible by what I'm reading.

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : If Vikings lose out, Packers win out, Packers get 5th, right?

bboystyle (23-Dec) : Minny isnt going to lose out so 5th seed is out of the equation. We are playing for the 6th or 7th seed which makes no difference

Mucky Tundra (23-Dec) : beast, the ad revenue goes to the broadcast company but they gotta pay to air the game on their channel/network

beast (23-Dec) : If we win tonight the game is still relative in terms of 5th, 6th or 7th seed... win and it's 5th or 6th, lose and it's 6th or 7th

beast (23-Dec) : Mucky, I thought the ad revenue went to the broadcasting companies or the NFL, at least not directly

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I think the revenue share is moot, isn't it? That's the CBA an Salary Cap handling that.

bboystyle (23-Dec) : i mean game becomes irrelevant if we win tonight. Just a game where we are trying to play spoilers to Vikings chance at the #1 seed

Mucky Tundra (23-Dec) : beast, I would guess ad revenue from more eyes watching tv

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I would think it would hurt the home team because people would have to cancel last minute maybe? i dunno

beast (23-Dec) : I agree that it's BS for fans planning on going to the game. But how does it bring in more money? I'm guessing indirectly?

packerfanoutwest (23-Dec) : bs on flexing the game....they do it for the $$league$$, not the hometown fans

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I see what you did there Mucky

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : dammit. 3:25pm

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Packers Vikings flexed to 3:35pm

Mucky Tundra (23-Dec) : Upon receiving the news about Luke Musgrave, I immediately fell to the ground

Mucky Tundra (23-Dec) : Yeah baby!

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : LUKE MUSGRAVE PLAYING TONIGHT~!~~~~WOWHOAAOHAOAA yah

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I wanna kill new QB's ... blitz the crap out of them.

beast (23-Dec) : Barry seemed to get too conservative against new QBs, Hafley doesn't have that issue

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : However, we seem to struggle vs new QB's

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Should be moot point, cuz Packers should win tonight.

packerfanoutwest (23-Dec) : ok I stand corrected

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Ok, yes, you are right. I see that now how they get 7th

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : 5th - Packers win out, Vikings lose out. Maybe?

beast (23-Dec) : Saying no to the 6th lock.

beast (23-Dec) : No, with the Commanders beating the Eagles, Packers could have a good chance of 6th or 7th unless the win out

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I think if Packers win, they are locked 6th with chance for 5th.

beast (23-Dec) : But it doesn't matter, as the Packers win surely win one of their remaining games

beast (23-Dec) : This is not complex, just someone doesn't want to believe reality

beast (23-Dec) : We already have told you... if Packers lose all their games (they won't, but if they did), and Buccaneers and Falcons win all theirs

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I posted it in that Packers and 1 seed thread

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I literally just said it.

packerfanoutwest (23-Dec) : show us a scenario where Pack don't get in? bet you can't
