I just watched a condensed 2009 NFCCG

[Skodin]

and it still got me excited and bummed with every good and bad play. Man, i know it sucks but i was proud of how hard that team played in that environment with everything they had. 

Bernard had an awesome day (outside of that fumble). Shank played big in big moments. playcalling seemed more like today fake screens, shifting blockers and innovative motions. 

Not only were the saints good, they were obviously aided by 4 blown calls in OT on top of the bullshit earlier, but man they were lucky. 

we were the better team and would have beaten trh fuck out of Indy. 10 games on a neutral field, we beat the Saints 7 times

It took me ten years to watch any replay oh 98, so I guess I'm due...

21 years now...

Still can't relive that one. Scarred me as much as the Vikings/Raiders SB.

Why the hell would you do that to yourself? I refuse to watch it. I just can't do it.

You too? I was seated row 10, first deck, end zone - behind the infamous goal posts.

because there is a joy in being a Vikings fan regardless if they win one or not.  the overall experience is better than being a fan of most teams. more ups and downs.  

just add up all the individual moments, not always good but think about it

all the teams of the 70s
all the studs of the 80s doleman, carter, milliard, browner, zimmerman
teams in rhe 90s that were a threat and would  have won super bowls if not for the Herschel deal. Moss, the Favre saga.  revir loveboat. stadium collapse. big K, chip and sparano
the hall of famers of the 90s, Carter, moss, randle, McDaniel.  41-0, Walsh Wide Left

weve seen the longest run in history, longest pass in history, longest missed kick run back, longest kr for a TD, AP 296. Randy’s rookie season. jared allen’s amazing 20+ sack season. Minneapolis Miracle

we have rarely had long franchise droughts. we have always had storylines and premier players even in our darkest of times.   

sure it hasnt resulted in a championship but i wouldnt trade in 20 years of being in it with great players for a short span of excellence or a one year run (Bucs, Rams, Seahawks, Bears)

of all the big 4 leagues franchises, no team has a better winning percentage without a championship than ours

for that as a fan Im grateful
