As a long time viking fan, I’ve become much more docile in my temperament at the games. Maybe $6.00 per beer has something to do with that…
Anyway, as I’ve become more of a fair weather fan, it’s very disappointing to go to a game, spend the $100.00 and not get good performance from the home team. Especially given the rivalry. I enjoy the banter in the stands as much as anyone. However, yesterday was even hard to rib the packer fans knowing we have 10 times the talent and got beat by one of the most mediocre teams in the league. This is not a dis on the pack, they are simply that, a mediocre young team. The vikes were suppose to be just slightly better this year. Well, they have proven the lack of talent in the middle of the defense and on the sidelines anyone can pick apart their defense. The offense is what I expected this year. I do not feel BJ is completely at fault, but when you under throw a wide open guy by 6 yards, his age is showing. Top it off with the lack of receivers, the old boy is having a tough go of it.
My buddy made a comment at half yesterday that was pretty funny. “Wonder who has Billy McMullen playing today on their fantasy team?”
Congrats to pack, this one went your way. I see 2-3 possible wins on your calendar. Maybe 4 if the bears don’t need the game and lay down at the end of the season. I see 3 possible wins for the queens. We should be duking it out for a draft pick.
