Somehow there is always something fun and funny about the vikings crushing defeats. The wailing, whining, and weeping of vikings fans year after year is just something to enjoy.
It would be more crushing to to the vikings if they got some false hope by winning against the Bears and then losing to the Packers.
If they win some more games to screw up their draft position, regain a little hope, and miss the playoffs all the better.
I have a lot more respect for the Bears than the vikings.
