I expected there to be a lot of gloating, a lot of rejoicing, a lot of shadenfreude on this board today. I've been surprised instead by how much compassion and empathy have been shown.

I see our little group in a new light. Thank you.

boo friggin hoo...how's THAT for empathy & class?? lol. ;)

while i might 'feel' for the fans - i sure as hell don't 'feel' for queens. they threw this game away! both teams were pitiful in their performances & made the NFC a joke. i don't care for that...not at all.

onto the refs...crap calls in this game on both sides of the ball. so many PI's called/missed...roughing the passer called/missed...ridiculous!!!

I feel sorry for the big Viking fans...ones before Brett...Thats not a slam on anyone in particular..but to emphasize fans that been fans for YEARS or even DECADES

They have dealt with tough losses, and I just hoped they could feel the joy of just going to the SB..

I do feel their pain on how it lost as well, it happened to me 3 years ago...

Like LT said, I feel for the real Vikings fans. Like my poor wife - even though she suspected a letdown, I think the whole Favre thing got many diehards to let their guards down and hope a little. To have that be dashed is just sad, and every true Vikings fan has my empathy today.

For the bandwagoners (and around here there are many, many of this kind of fan) and the few that simply wanted to see Brett succeed to spite the Packers and their fans, I say they got what they deserved.

Also, I think only one of the shots was truly cheap, but damn they were HAMMERING Brett out there - that was tough to watch.

No, that's not us - we live in Minneapolis. As you can imagine, there are plenty of Packer fan/Vikings fan marriages around these parts.

I heard enough gloating on my way into work today on Boston sports radio. Other than the obvious rips on him for the INT, they were going after him about talking to the press about his sore body, saying that Brady finished the season with broken ribs and a f'd up thumb/finger on his throwing hand but didn't complain about it.

What saddened me was that they actually had a point. As much as I hate Brady, he downplayed his injuries late in the season, even though they clearly hampered his ability to throw the ball.

I have a friend that's a life long Viking fan.
And i haven't even talked to him about this game yet. I want to give him some time.
These are the people i feel sorry for. The REAL fans.

There are fans to feel sorry for however the game plays out. I'd rather feel sorry for Vikings fans than Saints fans today. 😃
