As we get closer to the season I think we need a little time to reflect upon what the Vikings have done in the past before we really consider what we will do in the future, besides we are in one of the longest 30 days stretches in the history of the world so we mays well sit back and meditate on the Vikings a little.  This is the vikings O and D rankings through history.

Now here is the last few seconds of a game I remember real well.  No one I know watched the end of the game but myself.  I held out hope that somehow they could come back from being down three TD's in the 4th and win.  If you have not seen this game you can watch the whole thing on Youtube.  I always held Tommy or from that time on two minute Tommy as something special, years later and a couple of DUI's it was a little harder.
