I've been hard on you, and down right cruel in The Back Alley and I'm hoping this thread doesn't need to be relocated to that section. Hint.

I think you have a really good team that has a chance to do something special. Getting to a championship game is no small feat, even in loss, be proud of what your team has done this year. As a huge Favre fan, and anti Viking fan, the success of both has been bitter sweet. I want Favre's records to be so far out there that Peyton never touches them, but I don't want the Vikings to win either. Helluva situation for folks like me.

My message to you is this, embrace every moment of this upcoming game and if there's one to follow that one too. Surely, you don't need to be told this, but when I say that Brett is one of a kind, rest assured, that's not an exaggeration. Also, win or lose, Brett will be back next year after either a turmoil filled off-season or a very abrupt return announcement.

For what it's worth, I'd rather the Vikings represent then NFC North than the Bears.

Good luck (I hope you lose).

What he said.

Also, make sure you enjoy this and don't waste time worrying about previous failures - Barierro (local Twin Cities sports talk host) had a number of callers yesterday who were flipping out because they were just positive that the Vikes will let them down again. I say hogwash. This team isn't those other teams, so allow yourself a little optimism and enjoy the hooplah.

I'm married to a lifelong (read: Non-bandwagon) Vikes fan, and for her sake I hope they get it done.

Most hardcore fans (like myself) will continue being positive that the Vikes will choke until the Vikings prove them (me) wrong. That's the 'joy' of being a purple prider.

Thanks to TheViking88 for the sig!!

That's pretty much my wife's take on it, as well. It's a little sad that y'all are so convinced that a letdown is inevitable - weeks like this must be pretty nerve-wracking.

You know Z2C, reading your posts has tendency to evoke mixed emotions.

Kind of like watching your mother-in-law drive off a cliff in your new car.

Hint - I don't take to hints very well. :wickedfart:

You two are pathetic little bitches. Who gives a shit if your team has choked more in the big house than Monica Lewinski. That was then, this now. :icon_smile:

I'm really curious to see if Favre can pull this off. 4th and 26, and the 2007 NFC championship game are too clear in memory to think he succeeds, but the Vikings belong in this game. You should be thinking positive for good karma.

lol We give a shit. Because we lived the let downs (well, I'm reminded of them constantly by my dad and uncle who has actually lived through them). It has nothing to do with what era and whatnot.. It has everything to do with hearts being broken and it's always risky to have it exposed.

I'm just taking it one game at a time.. I'm sporting a goat on my face now, and if the Vikes do win, I'll be shaving my chin to sport the horseshoe mustache (unfortunately it won't be blond like that pic.. :sad: )
