Packers vs Vikings for the wild card game-I'm going to Lambeau
Should be a good game. Can the Pack beat the Vikes 3 times in a season? Both of the other games came down to last second feild goals

3. The Christmas Eve game was a real heartbreaker for Vikings fans.
If they're playing at Lambeau I don't hold out much hope for MN.

8. The Pack will have the definite advantage at Lambeau.
I remember the days when the Vikings played outdoors, but they've played at the Metrodome now longer than they did at Met Stadium.

(It's been quite a rivalry for some time now. A dozen years ago, I lived in Wisconsin for three years and took some pretty bad ribbing from my friends who were Packers fans. My husband remains mock-horrified that I once lived "behind the Cheddar curtain." :D )

16. No, no. I don't think so.
I'm pretty sure I'm thinking of Culpepper and Moss.

(This could go on all night...all week...forever! Think of what it was like for me when I lived in Wisconsin for three years in the mid-90s!)

13. If the Vikings had any self respect...they would forfeit
No team who loses to the Bears, Lions, and the Redskins...and goes 3 and 7 over their last 10 games deserves to make it...pathetic...AGAIN!!!

I hope the Packers smoke them and they show Tice the door...

Vikings are an ongoing 40 year joke!!!

And I am a fan!!!

15. Well, I just came home and took
a "Vikings Secondary" so I'm feeling a little better. Dear God, the Purple are a bunch of gutless choke artists--and not to mention flat out fucking stupid! DId anybody watch Brian Russell and Willy Offord get turned around on a (gasp) long Redskins completion?

However having said that I despise the Packers with an intensity so strong it's combustible! I'd imagine The Vikings are gonna ruin one more Sunday for me00but if not--LOOK OUT!

17. How about Moss walking off with :02 left?
Okay it would have been a miracle to recover the onside and run for a TD but you shouldn't leave the field until the game is over.

19. I gotta be honest
I don't give a single rat's ass about Moss walking off. Most of the "Randy Moss is a complete asshole" talk is overblown. Hell the local sprorts radio station has toms of calls suggesting the Vikings get rid of Moss. It's a fairly close parallel to the freeper trolls we get here.

Getting back to the main point, whatever his shortcomings he is a single-play game changing player.

Look at the gloating you see in this thread already, I don't care how many games they win, I don't care if "Our Favre who art in Lambeau" gets another ring The Packers still suck. Sucking is an existential quality and cannot be removed with something as mundane "winning."

94 East.

25. Ha!
Yeah I know how that feeling goes. My "Worst NFL QB ever thread" has the same sentiments (from me) regarding Testaverde-I never liked him before but when the Browns fired Bernie for him that did it he forever SUCKS.

My posting about Moss was in anticipation of what I expected to be a huge discussion of him following the game. There probably will be in the coming week on sports talk radio. Yeah get rid of Moss and see how bad the Vikings will be.

21. I am told
that beating a team 3 times in a row is extremely difficult, as a depressed Vikings fan I say, I think the Vikes will make it easy.

26. Be careful!
When the choking-dog Vikings puke all over themselves AGAIN, you don't want to get any on you.
