How About Them.........

[Wind Gypsy]

you ever heard of The Drive? The Fumble? John Elway's name still causes my father in law to mutter things under his breath.

Ever heard of The Shot, The Decision?
Jose Mesa?
Heck the CUBS broke their curse AGAINST US! Down 3-1.

I feel like George Costanza

So since MN's last Major sport championship appearance, Cleveland has had 8 finals appearances (one win) and you guys don't even have a damn hockey team!

The decision.. hahaha!

We are loserville!

 

[Wind Gypsy]

but we have the lynx. hahahaha!

Time to resurrect this old thread again. (Go back to page 1 for some old names you don't see around here anymore). Vikes been playing well against a tough opponent today at the Bank. Darnold has been solid so far and the defense seems stellar again this year. Jefferson is doing his thing. Nice to see this level of play out of the Queens. SKOL!

 

[Wind Gypsy]

Man, they just missed a big opportunity with that muffed punt! [edit: got it back anyway!]

Fun to watch the vikes so far this year!

 

[Foggy47]

2 and 0 baby! SKOL!

 

[Foggy47]

3 and 0. SKOL!

Don’t get your hopes up, you are talking about the Vikings here. They could go 10-0 then choke the rest of the season, kneel it at halftime, then lose, or lose 41-0 against a wildcard team. I know, sounds crazy, but it could happen. lol

Sorry, I was a die hard Vikings fan, lost interest after 2009, and with the kneeling and BLM, black national anthem, all pro sports can stick it!

Same..agree 100%, Kaepernick and the woke BS ruined pro sports for me. Haven't watched any since.

No one that I know wants to hear athletes playing a game for way too much money give an opinion on anything. Came to watch the clowns juggle. Just juggle clown, just juggle.

As a Packers fan, I don't care for the Vikings...

But I'm surprised so many people are anti-capitalism, free speech, and about the cancel-culture, especially on this site.

 

[jsasker007]

It's ok. Nothing wrong with being surprised.

I still watch but i respect anyone who chooses not to. As a consumer, voting with our wallet is our strongest voice. I am absolutely a free speech capitalist, but as one I can choose not support companies I don’t agree with.

I think it’s actually a pro-capitalist, pro free speech thing to choose not to spend your resources (time/money) on a product that doesn’t meet your needs. Nah?

Vikes were very fun to watch for 3rd week in a row. What's happening?!

Nice buildup for a week 4 clash with the packers! Going to be a grind to win the NFC North this year. It does bring me some joy to see the bears underperforming expectations so much!

If Allison, Hockenson, Pace jr, and Turner get healthy without other significant injuries taking their place (fat chance).. watch out!

 

[Wind Gypsy]

Also, anytime the vikes beat stefon diggs it is a cherry on top.

I agree with both these statements but the anti-capitalist statement comes from the "over paid" and "too much money" crowd. Would anyone expect the players to take less money than they can be paid? Non-sensical IMO.

The free speech stuff is in regards to "shut up and play" mentality, not how anyone chooses to spend their money or time. I agree with not spending your hard earned money on causes you don't support. I don't agree with telling people to shut their mouths because you don't agree with what they're saying. That's Anti-American to me and not something I'd expect here.

In my opinion no one is overpayed. They are paid what their market values them so I agree. As far as the shut up and play, once again I agree. Talk all you want. But understand you may not get the reception you want…or you may, it’s your gamble.

I’d say the nfl is laughing at all the guys not watching. While I respect the conviction, the effort is not working unfortunately. The nfl is more popular then ever. Like bud light, conservatives are only so united in their boycotts. Bud light shrugged it off and is back booming.

Right, I was surprised what I originally said was viewed as remotely controversial, I guess it needed some clarification.
