#Vikings QB Sam Bradford is set to make his debut tonight vs. #Packers in Minnesota’s new stadium. This was the plan when they acquired him.

Sam Bradford has never been an answer to a positive question on Jeopardy as a Pro.

Packers 24
Vikings 12

Guaranteed post-game controversy over piped in crowd noise.

Obligatory game day post.

Go Pack! Packers win!

[Upnorth]

Either 21-17 or 30-6. 30-6 is if Nelson finds high gear and we get cook rolling like jmike part two

[pbmax]

Janis will catch two passes WITH THE CLUB.

You have to phrase it as a question.

Like, What is Sam Bradford?

[pbmax]

This QB has disappointed college and pro fanbases alike with his brittleness and barely noticeable play making ability. He is said to resemble a statue, especially when he is moving.

What is Craig Morton?
I'm sorry no

What is Scott Mitchell?
I'm sorry no

What is Sam Bradford?
ding-ding-ding!

I don't care 'bout the outcome. I just want the Packers offense to light up 500+ offensive yards and score 40+ points. I want the D to hold the Queens to 10 points or less and score 2 tds off turnovers. I want the ST to take at least a punt to da house.

Homerously, I am a-starting Rodgers, Cobb, Lacy, Nelson, Cook and Packers D in a lineup.

Sounds good. I guess I don't care about the outcome either.

[Harlan Huckleby]

I have a hunch this is going to be a fantastic game, a slugfest for the ages. I can hardly wait for kickoff. Therefore a stinker is likely.

[Maxie the Taxi]

MUST pressure QB...Back to my nap.
