The night before

by speedlod on Jan 24, 2010 12:27 AM CST

First off want to thank all those Saints fans that have come here and showed true class,much Different then the norm.Win or lose has been a pleasure to read your posts and thoughts,and hopefully next year we can be in the same spot.My hat is off to you and I hope that you take the time to post here and offer insight in the friendly manner you have all year round. I wish all Fans posted and acted as most of you have,If the Vikes win I hope you all take the time to come here for the blog on that day.If the Saints win I hope thats an open invite to blog that day at your place.

Having been born in Biloxi,but a Viking fan,am torn in 2 ways,I wish the Saints a first S.B. berth,I also wish for a Viking 5th.Cant have both but as close to having a split go my way no matter what ill take.

No matter what has been a great year to be a Vikes fan or a Saints fan,or in my case both.Has been a year to remember no matter what tomorrow.Both sets of fans should have no complaints up to this point,I couldnt have asked for a better match up then this.

I truly hope that both Teams get to play without any Ref interference,that no one gets hurt, its a good clean game and it keeps everyone on the edge of their chairs and couches.Saint fans wish ya all luck just more luck to my Vikes. I prolly wont be online during game as friends coming over but ill try at least say something during half.

thanks for the nice words

even though i haven’t posted on here this week, i’ve read a few things here and there and I appreciate how cool you guys were. CSC is open to you guys anytime, just watch out for the few crazies in there ;D. Whoever wins this game wins the SB unless they play their worst game of the season and by a good amount. Good luck to you guys! You’ll need it ;P

Superbowl bound!!!...I know! do you?! Go Saints!!

If

we had to lose to someone I would prefer to do so with a Fan base I admire.Your fan base has to be the best there is,very few bad posts that I can see came from Saint fans.I mean its not like lets say a Pack fan or Bear fan base where if the Teams lose domestic violence rises.Here we just cut and split 3 seasons worth of wood and prolly down your way you plow and harrow the north 40.
It is what is, something to look forward to the end of week.We all have some sort of problem,this just gives us something to look forward to on monday.If the Vikes lose tomorrow,it wont change a damn thing in my life.If the Vikes win tomorrow,just means I get to watch my beloved Vikes play another game..

I have mixed feelings about football season,when football season starts that means winter isnt to far away. I live just outside Billings ,Mt which means when Football starts winter can hit anytime.But when the Super Bowl hits spring aint so far away,so while I love Football but hate winter,but love Spring,Summer and Fall and you cant beat those 3 Seasons here in Montana.

We just got 10 inches and prolly another 2 more on way by the time of the game.We dig out and dig out again,prolly again Game day.Neighbor is a Pack fan,ill hook up the chains tomorrow help him out,same as he would do for me.

I have been a Vike fan since I could follow the game,which has been since 69 and I was 8, my Father loved all Teams,so I got to see all games.

I got to watch all the Greats,Kilmer,Staubach,Snake, just to name a few,my father never showed emotion at any of the games.
Got hooked on the Purple,my Father as stoic as Bud Grant ,shadowed in a cloud of smoke like a landry sunset said dont root for them.
I dumbass that I am, never asked why,just if he didnt like them,then they must be good.
Did I tell you my Father was a Smart man,just took me 40 yrs to realize iot.

yeah

we got about 18 inches but the drifting is what gets ya. This could and should be our year!

it is better to be thought of as dumb then to open your mouth and remove all doubt.

Yes kudos...

To a GREAT bunch of fans from the Saints….

Finally meandered over to CSC, and been having fun ever since….

They are not unlike us, not at all….

Is all good….

SKOL and GO VIKES!

If tomorrow I have to say GEAUX SAINTS…

I can in clear conscience do this…..

Not today though, and expect my conscience will be fine…

When I scream: VIKINGS ARE GOING TO THE SUPERBOWL!!!!!!!!!!

Cheers all and sleep well over there, here up and obsessing as usual….GAMEDAY HERE!!!

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

Good luck to both teams and both fam bases

I feel like a kid!

Got up early and going to be a long twelve hours to game time.It will be a great day for the Vikings.I would like to wish all Saints fans good luck and I applaud your sportmanship.I probably will not feel this way during the game,as they say in golf its been a SLICE!!! SKOL……..
