      Burn.

      Thing is, all fan bases are like this when they feel they got jobbed, or feel they should of won. If the saints lost, they may be bitching about something as well. No matter what happens, if it's a tight contest decided late int he 4th, or in OT, who ever loses is bound to bitch about something, and have a hard time letting it go. ESPECIALLY if it's in the playoffs.

        Yeah, that'd be O.K.........were this a Viking fan forum and someone had opined that Packer fans are a bunch of crybabies and you were attempting to use illustrative examples to contradict my position that they really aren't.

        But then, this ISN'T a Queens fan forum, now is it???

          I think the secret to being a happy Vikings fan is lowered expectations. I think they might be cursed.

            What exactly does the forum have to do with it? And this is a topic concerning the Vikings. Should I say all Pack fans are dbags because I know of some? I say no. But then I forget, this is the internet so anything goes.

              Because obviously on a Packers forum there will always be bitching about calls that go against GB. So there is really no need to bring up any of the 10+ threads we can all find on this site.

              Maybe you were saying that you haven't complained but what you said could easily be thought as that no Vikings fans have whined about bad calls. IronMike gave links so we wouldn't have to google to see the Viking whines that are out there.
              But Rodgers leads the league in frumpy expressions and negative body language on the sideline, which makes him, like Josh Allen, a unique double threat.

                Fair enough. I just don't like when anyone groups people.

                  All Vikings fans are losers that have failed at life and are extremely jealous of the Packers.

                    Actually, it was warranted, because people were complaining about how "funny" the vikings fans are for not letting the NFC Championship game go, but were just as bad ourselves.

                    It's one of those "pot calling the kettle black" moments, where we really have no right to make fun of how they are reacting, because we all do that for our own team every year.

                    WHo cares anyways, it's all about 2010 now. The great debate of Packers verse Vikings for the NFC North will begin shortly. Then the Lions suprirse the world and beat them both.


                    Hey, it happens.





















                    Just never for the Lions.

                      The Vikings will almost certainly be worse this year but not because of the team. I'm not going to bet against Favre to have a good year. That'd be a mistake. Their OL should be improved and Peterson isn't likely to fumble any more often than he did last year. Losing Taylor hurts more than fans are willing to admit but I expect their play to be about the same on offense. The defense will be stout against the run, run up a bunch of sacks and still give up enough big plays through the air to make them look mortal. I expect them to stay about the same too.

                      They'll get worse the same way we did after our 2007 season. Luck. Everything seemed to bounce the Vikings way last season much the way it did for the Pack in 2007. We were a 10-6 team that went 13-3 and then the next season we were a 10-6 team that went 6-10.

                          I find in interesting that people point to the loss of Chester as such a huge factor in the Vikings future sucess.




                          Taylor may have low miles on his odometer, but he will be 31 in September. In dog years (which also could be known as running back years) that's 217.

                          And Taylor already is showing signs of decline, according to two scouts who studied him. Last year, for the first time in his career, he averaged less than four yards per carry.

                          His teammate Adrian Peterson averaged nearly a full yard per carry more (4.4 to 3.6) with the same line. And running behind an inferior line in a dysfunctional offense, Matt Forte had the same average per carry Taylor did.


                          I think Toby Gerhart is capable of being a good backup to AD, and Chester will become an overpaid player in Chicago.

                            The viklings haven't signed their 7th round pick yet.

                            "The Vikings have one of the three remaining unsigned seventh-round picks from the draft. That would be tight end Mickey Shuler, who was taken at No. 214 overall. The players immediately above and below Shuler are signed."

                            WR Webb is the lone unsigned sixth-rounder from the draft.

                            "The 199th pick of the draft, Webb is sandwiched between Carolina wide receiver David Gettis, who received a four-year, $1.9 million deal that included a $94,000 signing bonus, and Philadelphia running back Charles Scott, who signed a four-year, $1.8 million deal that included a $91,000 signing bonus."


                            So if you are the lowest revenue team in the NFl you cannot afford to sign your draft picks. Season ticket sales must not have brought in enough money.

                              I think I agree with this.

                                Though I'd love to see us run away with the division, I really don't believe that Favre will sudenly fall off the planet after possibly his best season of his career. I hope that as the years go by, the revenge factor begins to fade an maybe the old man won't be as motivated to "stick it to" TT as prior years. I really believe that was the biggest reason why he had such a great year. He was more motivated then ever to show everyone he was still an elite player and more then anything wanted to hurt the ones that "rejected" him (in his opinion).

                                The Vikings (if Favre returns) will still be one of the elite teams in the league. I just hope we closed the gap with internal growth. Heck, if we stay healthy, I think all we need is some average special teams play and we are right there.
