Q: Why do the trees in Wisconsin lean to the south
A: Because Minnesota blows and Chicago sucks.

The Vikes defense will win or lose the game, imo

I concur. The defense has already shown twice that they can't stop the Pack. I wanna think we can win, but I have no faith in their ability to stop the pass. Or the rush. Or the kickoff. Or the...

[Jen]

Go Colts!

[Txsleuth]

Just saw a report on Fox News saying there was another explosion underground in Indianapolis and they may have to postpone today's playoff game!!!!

[Dog Gone]

Actually I am a bit worried. The Pack may be due for a loss and it is very hard to beat a divisional team 3 times in a year.

Check the Vikings' record in outdoor games.

[PMCarey]

Who knows,, maybe the ol' Vikes will show up. lol

The Vikes sold their birthright when they built the Humpy Dome. Their outdoor record stinks to high heaven.

[NormsRevenge]

I hear ya..

The only Vike game I ever saw was at the Met in a snowstorm against the Rams ... ya couldn't see the field, just the goal posts... Vikes won 10-0 or 10-3

Do domes have softening effects on teams? hmmmm .. ;-)

[JennysCool]

we're in for a great game(as long as Favre doesn't throw numerous interceptions)

Brett is a Hall of Famer and the Pack fields a good team this year, but you've hit on their one weakness: they have difficulty coming back from their own mistakes. They spend precious time kicking themselves instead of kicking their opponent. That said, Go Pack!

[Txsleuth]

I think domed football stadiums should be outlawed!!!

[winodog]

Colts 47
Broncos 24

Packers 27
Vikings 24

I will be rooting for a Packer - Colt Stuporbowl or anyone but Pats - Eagles. And I love the Bus. I would love to see him get a ring. Also Cowher deserves one for rebuilding the Steelers every year as the owner sells off the best players.

[BurFred]

Except of course for Reliant Stadium, GO Texans!!(man did they suck their last game!!!)

[Dr Snide]

Randy Moss is Leon

[BurFred]

Your right more often than not the Pack beats themselves.

[Dr Snide]

Q: what do you call a basement full of Viking fans?

A: A Minnesota Whine Cellar

[timpad]

The Vikes defense will win or lose the game, imo.

I would agree. Lost in the latest Moss Mess is the fact that Corey Chavous, our starting safety will not play with a broken elbow. Willie Offord in his place will make it a long day for us Purple faithful.

But, that's why they play the games. You never know...

[winodog]

The Vikings need to remove the dome and get back to real football. Same with Detroit. Make teams suffer for playing the black and blue division like the good old days.

[Ellesu]

GO Colts, GO Packers!

[RckyRaCoCo]

The Vikings need to remove the dome and get back to real football. Same with Detroit.

The Lions need to do it if for no other reason to let the smell out.

Randy Moss is Leon

Yesterday, I would have argued with you. After seeing the ESPN interview today where he said he wasn't even listening when Matt Birk was calling him out in the locker room, I can't defend him any more.

what stuck me was "Defenses don't frustrate me, my temates frustrate me" Pure Leon.
