Except instead of a cute little girl; I’m old with a spare tire around my waist, male and not so cute.

Welcome to what we like to call in Vikings Land ‘Wednesday’. This is nothing.

That was 3 years ago. I know about some of the history you good folks are talking about but obviously for me Saints defeat was the one I am still not over. Though Sean Peyton losing his knee this year is a consolation :)

it took me about, oh, 15 years from where she is now to finally have it stop affecting me in EXACTLY the way it affected her. Lots of screaming, yelling, general psychic confusion, sometimes unintentional self-harm.

Thanks to purpledork for putting this up. It’s okay, little girl. . .you’re young. Eventually, it won’t even affect you any more.

So exactly how old do you have to be to get to the point at which is won’t even affect you any more? I’m still waiting, and I ain’t feeling all that young any more.

…exploit this poor little girl’s sadness, because I just had an idea.

I’m moved by this girl’s passion and emotion over the Vikings’ loss to Green Bay. She put to tears what many of us have been feeling for over a year. On the chance that Zygi Wilf might be watching, I’m tempted to do something that is ethically questionable. I could perhaps plead the insanity defense. After all, I am getting a little tired of popping lithium every morning to get over this deep Vikings-induced funk.

Here’s what I’m thinking: Maybe towards the end of the clip, I could dub in something that sounds like a little girl’s whisper to her mommy. It would go something like this, “Mommy, will Mr. Wilf go get us an offensive line in the off season?” What owner could resist making that little girl’s hopes come true? Seriously. It just… might…work.

Would that be so wrong? More to the point, might it work? Man alive, we need a better offensive line…and so many other things too.
