The Pats could have beaten the Oilers 1000-0 yesterday, it doesn't make them a championship caliber team. Should I be looking for somewhere else to vest our interest? Is there room on the Viking bandwagon? Assuming Farve can keep his arm in one piece (and AD's ankle isn't a problem (huuuge assumption)) your 6-0 Vikings could easily become MY 6-0 Vikings.

Always Welcome Newcomers Who Have Seen the Light

Have to understand the psyche of Viking fans, though….

We are very careful in our prognoses, ever ready to refer to the many times we have been burned in the past…so optimisim laced with reality/caution always….Even when we win (or maybe ESPECIALLY when we win ugly!)…

As puddinhead says though, NO Saints bandwagon looks pretty comfortable as well at this point…BUT long term….Given the choice(s)…Vikings hands down! Just NOTHING better….

BTW: Agree on your waivering w PATS…Just something about their nature to rub until raw when they have the chance…Not nice and generally w come around to bite you when you least need it…I am a compassionate fan LOL….OK beat the hell out the other team, but the season is longer than one game…save your 1st string guys after you are winning by, say 45 points or so?

SKOL!

I would rather be IN the Arena than watching from the stands...That is my life!

My girlfriend is a Packers fan

She said maybe if we get married she will jump on the Vikings bandwagon too. I like that and all but I just can’t see how somebody can turn their back on their team. Vikings fan for life bros!

i got my wife not giving two shits about football....

aside from me throwing things in a (for once) non-alcohol-induced-football-rage, she was a bit miffed, but it’s all good…..

I piss people off on a fairly regular basis. I cherish my right to speak my mind, whether I sound like an uneducated savage or not. I've never been accused of keeping what I think a secret, nor will I ever. Don't like it? I don't care.

Hop on Board, there's Lots of Room!

Just ease right in between REVENGE4FAVRE and the guy hugging his Gator pillow :)

Ah, ah,
We come from the land of the ice and snow,
From the midnight sun where the hot springs blow.
The hammer of the gods will drive our ships to new lands,
To fight the horde, singing and crying: Valhalla, I am coming!
SKOL!
