cuz I do!!! I think they are best team in the NFC this year. The moves they made in the offseason on D-Fence, plus the trade of our version of TO(Moss) should stablize a team that historically has had too much tormoil.

Now if only Mike Tice can coach.

You know whodunit....I am from OK as well and I wish we would get a NFL team. I would be there all the time. I heard that Tulsa was trying to get one. Actually last I heard they were trying to get any professional team they could whether it be baseball, basketball, football etc...

I read a plan to actually try and build a stadium half-way between Tulsa and OKC that way both cities could attend.

My name is Princess Leia and I like the Vikes.

Not because I've lived in MN my whole life. Not because I think Purple and Gold go together better than Green and Yellow . Not because I think the Metrodome (or Rollerdome as Mike Ditka called it) is a great stadium.

It must be because I'm a glutton for punishment.

I guess it's like I expect them to start off strong every year and play awesome against strong teams. Every year it's "our year." Nothing better than beating the Pack at Lambeau. Nothing worse than losing to the Bears at home (sorry mom of princess natalie).

Honestly, I don't have a lot of hope for significant post season activity. It's like watching a train wreck ... I can't stop watching (and cheering for our team) and they depress me year after year.

I've learned to cope by expecting the worst (no playoffs) -any victories (especially against the Pack ) are gravy.

I'm still recovering from the year that Denny Green took a knee at the end of regulation to Atlanta in the Division Championship ... and we lost our chance to go to the Superbowl. That year was "our year." And, that's the only Vikings game I've ever been to.

I feel much better now. Thank you.

Where are ya Snowqueen, beaconpaul, sarahH, D2X, et al ... ??

At least Whodunit and I can have our own Vikings fan support group courtesy of BOL


BTW, I have a Randy Moss jersey if anyone wants it ...

I do not like the new "V" at mid field. It looks too much like Houston's steer head.

I was happy to see Moss go.....more for his attitude than playing rights. Anyhow - I'm going to go out on a limb and say it's their YEAR! lol - ..........I was sooo set on them making it to the super bowl, I was just crushed. I think many silly mistakes cost them - not necessarily that the teams were so much better. Wish I was in MN because I would be at every game. Sorry - P.Leia - no moss jersey wanted here

I agree with the V. It's part of the "new" turf.

Whodunit - I think you should move to MN. We need more fans like you. Plus, we have great winters

You know...I don't really watch alot of NFL football. I am more of a college fan. But what I have noticed is that the Vikings have a ora about them. That even if they lose they win. You know what I mean? I watched that awesome play they had last year, you know which one I'm talking about, and I couldn't help but think...'keep going guys, you can take it to the end.' I think they will do well this year. Besides...I don't want to hear anymore of TO in the news. I am so sick of that.

Call me silly, but I don't see why people think the Vikings are going to have a good season. Sure they've made some improvements on defense, but until they make improvements at head coach, they will never be better than a tier-2 team. In fact, I'm not even sure they can take their division this year. Provided they stay healthy, I think the Lions have the best shot at winning the NFC North.

You are out of your mind? It doesn't matter the Lions have the best 3 WR's under 25, and Marcus Pollard at TE. They have one of the worst starting QB's in the league.

I understand. As a lifelong Eagles fan, I know all about misplaced hope.
