Minnesota Vikings News and Links: Saturday, November 13th, 2021

Good Morning!

Welcome to any Chargers fans who found our Saturday Open Thread; please note the rules below because we have standards.....very low standards. Consistent with our open thread policy of welcoming fans from other teams, please state your favorite beer, list any smoker or crockpot recipes and post a gif or two.

Linked below is GA Skol’s weekly prediction column, every week is starting to feel like the last in which the Vikings find a new and dumb way to blow a lead and lose. My prediction is 24-31 for the Chargers.

Again, we all know the rules, but in case someone is new:
-No discussion of politics or religion
-No feeding of the trolls
-Leave the gender hatred at the door
-Keep the bad language to a minimum (using the spoiler tags, if you must)
-Speaking of which, if discussing a newer show or movie, please use spoiler tags
-No pictures that could get someone fired or in serious trouble with their employer
-If you can’t disagree in a civil manner, feel free to go away
-While navigating the open thread, just assume it’s sarcasm.
