The ultimate, definitive DN offseason poll

There are some pretty traditional ways to spend offseason time around the DN. I am interested in which one(s) are the most appealing to the community. With that, I give you the ultimate, definitive DN offseason poll. Your choices for favorite offseason past time:

1. Chugging purple koolaid, and challenging anyone who doesn't think the Vikings will finish the next season at 36-0 and with four Super Bowl rings to a duel. Like, a real, actual duel involving flintlock pistols or (as was Abe Lincoln's preference) broadswords*.

2. Raining on koolaid drinkers' parades. You know, cuz it's the Vikings, and they're going to let you down with the same degree of certainty that Marcus Sherels will be on the roster again this year.

3. Complaining about last season, because it was a disappointment, and if only the team had done X, Y, and Z last year when I said they should, well then, we'd be celebrating a Super Bowl victory right now and RAWR RAWR RAWR

4. Debating which QB should start the upcoming season. The current iteration is Bradford v. Teddy; previous incarnations include Ponder v. Webb, Wilson v. Gannon, Kapp v. Tark, and bleu cheese v. cheddar. But regardless of the actual bodies involved, the QBs MUST BE DEBATED!!

5. Trying to convince any/everyone who will listen that every rookie we just drafted (or signed after the draft) is about to be literally the best player ever and was the biggest steal in history.

6. Reminiscing about the good ol' days, when men were men, football players didn't need these "helmet" things, and the Vikings were a much more successful brand of disappointing.

7. Roster talk, including (but not limited to) roster predictions, making fun of roster predictions, looking ahead to next year's draft, making fun of those who look ahead to next year's draft, and/or comparisons of the Vikings championship-caliber roster to GB's woefully inadequate, junk heap-filled roster.

There are your choices; have at it!

*Seriously, Abe Lincoln was once challenged to a duel, and it was left to him to select the dueling weapon. He picked cavalry broadswords.
