I actually was surprised how long they hung around. It was close to about half way through the 4th quarter.

Congrats to a very good season to our resident Vikings fans here.
This site would NOT be the same without you guys!

I know how hard it is to have those high expectations, only to fall short.

I want you guys to know how much i respect you.

Tarvaris got pressure from every angle. Jim Johnson is truly a great blitzer. I think the game was pretty much over when McNabb connected with Westbrook for that huge TD. Gotta be impressed with the Vikings run D though. Without Pat and Ray and still held the Eagles to only one big run.

This is a placeholder

Bottom line, cut to the chase... with honesty, sans smack.

This post is to Nick, Tim, Jeremy, Danny, Conor, Marty, and longtime. The better team won, at least on this day, regardless of whatever gets posted on this forum from this point forward... know this...

You were the best representative of our division this year, and I completely understand how much that one hurt.

I feel good for Donovan and Mike R. ... they deserve a break too...

Sorry.

That was one of the better playoff games of the weekend IMHO.
The Vikes looked tough until Jackson started to fall apart in the 4th. He looked good up until the pressure was on to get 2 scores.

As much as I dislike Jared Allen, I have to admit he is a damn good football player

I hope Chilly and TJack are in Minnesota for a long long time...or at least until they move to LA in 2012.

Are they really moving to LA in 2012?

They really hung tough... You give C. Taylor and AP the ball every down they win that game hah. Oh well...

Meh, it's just me spit balling into the wind. The Metrodump lease is up in 2012, Ziggy's been crying for public funding for a new downtown stadium in Minny, and with the economy being crap (state services currently in hiring freeze, major budget concerns for the state) I don't see a new stadium being built.

Would it surprise me to see them move? Absolutely not.

But why LA? And would they still be in our division?

Why do they NEED a new stadium?

They actually looked pretty good. They will be tough next season. Escecially the D. Wish we had their D coordinator and some of their linemen.

wpr (17-Apr) : 7 days

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Trade, cut or keep

dfosterf (16-Apr) : that from Jaire

dfosterf (16-Apr) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.

dfosterf (16-Apr) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission

dfosterf (16-Apr) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : That someone ... likely the agent.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"

dfosterf (16-Apr) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that

dfosterf (16-Apr) : What is the downside in making a calculated reduced offer to Jaire?

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers are receiving interest in Jaire Alexander but a trade is not imminent

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Jalen Ramsey wants to be traded. He's never happy is he?

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : two 1sts in 2022 and two 2nd's in 2023 and 2024

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers had fortunate last three drafts.

dfosterf (15-Apr) : I may have to move

dfosterf (15-Apr) : My wife just told the ancient Japanese sushi dude not enough rice under his fish

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I think a dozen is what I need

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Go fund me for this purpose just might work. A dozen nurses show up at 1265 to provide mental health assistance.

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Maybe send a crew of Angels to the Packers draft room on draft day.

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I am the Angel that gets visited.

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Visiting Angels has a pretty good reputation

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : what

Martha Careful (14-Apr) : WINNING IT, not someone else losing it. The best victory though was re-uniting with his wife

Martha Careful (14-Apr) : The manner in which he won it was just amazing and wonderful. First blowing the lead then getting back, then blowing it. But ultimately

Zero2Cool (12-Apr) : I'm guessing since the thumb was broken, he wasn't feeling it.

dfosterf (10-Apr) : Looking for guidance. Not feeling the thumb.

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : If they knew about it or not

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : I don't recall that he did which is why I asked.

Zero2Cool (10-Apr) : Guessing they probably knew. Did he have cast or something on?

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : Did they know that at the time or was that something the realized afterwards?

Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Van Ness played most of season with broken thumb

wpr (9-Apr) : yay

Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Mark Murphy says Steelers likely to protect Packers game. Meaning, no Ireland

Zero2Cool (8-Apr) : Struggling to figure out what text editor options are needed and which are 'nice to have'

Mucky Tundra (8-Apr) : *CHOMP CHOMP CHOMP*

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : WR who said he'd break Xavier Worthy 40 time...and ran slower than you

Mucky Tundra (2-Apr) : Who?

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : Texas’ WR Isaiah Bond is scheduled to visit the Bills, Browns, Chiefs, Falcons, Packers and Titans starting next week.
