You know Finland, denying how much you're Swedish is kind of like some of the good ol' boys I knew back in Texas who would exclaim how heterosexual they were. You're not a quarter Swedish, are you?

Silver's column was good, but his feeling about Favre-Vikings Part 2 was a pretty common one--maybe even the consensus. Here's what Don Banks had to say:

And Cheesey's "No Moss" pun was simply amazing.

I tend to immediately dismiss any statement that begins with a superlative and ends in the word "ever," because in my experience, it's never remotely true. The title of this thread is no exception.

It must be rough to take everything literally. I barely even noticed the thread title, because I assumed right away that it was a lighthearted exaggeration.

No, I wouldn't have put that as the title if it really wasn't the most prophetic article ever. Do you actually think I really would have resorted to said light-hearted exaggeration? Hell no!

(nonstop gets sarcasm, right?)

I predicted at the start of the season that the Vikes would not make the playoffs.

I also though predicted that the Jets would be one season wonders and Pittsburgh would fail miserably.

If I forget the Jets and Steelers predictions I would look prophetic as well.

Now I look pathetic.

And after all it is only half way through the season so there are still many intangibles that could happen.

The Vikings season is going pretty much how I expected. If they lose to AZ I will actually be dead on for my prediction for their record.

But if they are out of it after the AZ game, Favre will have no reason to play and end his season prematurely. I would like them to be on the edge of elimination all season, vainly chasing that slim hope... into the abyss.

That is my dream ending for Favre's career. A soft splat quietly in the distance, with no meaning or relevance. Out of contention and out of hope... (Cue diabolical laughter)

I want to go out like my Grandpa did. Peacefully in his sleep.
Not screaming in terror like his passengers.

buckeyepackfan (11h) : 1 NFC South @ NFC West @ AFC West other 3 games,

buckeyepackfan (11h) : Packers play NFC East and AFC North in 2025, plus 2 other games

Mucky Tundra (12h) : Geeze Zero get it right!😋

Zero2Cool (14h) : I guess 3 games. Whatever

Zero2Cool (14h) : Bleh, that only impacts two games.

Zero2Cool (14h) : Packers are gonna get 3rd place division schedule next year.

Mucky Tundra (15h) : Kanata, seek help! lol

beast (17h) : I was rooting for the Bears to win and hurt their draft pick status

Zero2Cool (17h) : Forgot there was even a game last night haha

TheKanataThrilla (17h) : That was terrible.

TheKanataThrilla (17h) : Watching that game in its entirety yesterday is proof positive that I am a football addict.

beast (18h) : And horrible time management multiple times... and not being able to score more than 3 points on a team with talent

beast (18h) : Realizing the Bears didn't fix it from the previous week and do the same thing, getting the game to overtime

beast (18h) : They probably are not tanking, but they've absolutely mismanagement some things, such as Vikings seeing the Packers blocked FG and realizing

Zero2Cool (19h) : Crazy of Bears to have that mindset that is

Zero2Cool (19h) : Hail Mary stop away from 5 - 2. Not sure how that flips to tanking. Crazy mindset if true

beast (19h) : I've quietly questioned if Bears are tanking on purpose... they suddenly got a lot worse with some simple concepts like 101 clock management

wpr (22h) : Watching bares fans melt down over how putrid their team is, so enjoyable. It's the gift that keeps on giving.

Mucky Tundra (27-Dec) : The Seattle Seahawks defeat the Chicago Bears 6-3. Jason Myers had 6 RBIs for Seattle while Cairo Santos had 3 RBI for Chicago

beast (27-Dec) : Not nessarily, he might of been injured either way. He's playing about 50% of the games the last 4 years

Zero2Cool (26-Dec) : If they'd been more patient with him, he'd be back already. Putting him out there vs Bears caused him to tweak it and here we are.

packerfanoutwest (26-Dec) : well this is his last season with the PAck, book it

beast (26-Dec) : Sounds like no Alexander (again), I'm wondering if his time with the Packers is done

Zero2Cool (26-Dec) : Could ban beast and I still don't think anyone catches him.

Mucky Tundra (26-Dec) : Houston getting dog walked by Baltimore

packerfanoutwest (25-Dec) : Feliz Navidad!

Zero2Cool (25-Dec) : Merry Christmas!

beast (25-Dec) : Merry Christmas 🎄🎁

beast (24-Dec) : Sounds like no serious injuries from the Saints game and Jacobs and Watson should play in the Vikings game

packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : both games Watson missed, Packers won

Martha Careful (24-Dec) : I hope all of you have a Merry Christmas!

Mucky Tundra (24-Dec) : Oh I know about Jacobs, I just couldn't pass up an opportunity to mimic Zero lol

buckeyepackfan (24-Dec) : Jacobs was just sat down, Watson re-injured that knee that kept him out 1 game earlier

buckeyepackfan (24-Dec) : I needed .14 that's. .14 points for the whole 4th quarter to win and go to the SB. Lol

Mucky Tundra (24-Dec) : Jacobs gonna be OK???

Zero2Cool (24-Dec) : 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
