[QUOTE="SpartaChris, post: 336688, member: 1007"] Got a link to a good forum? I'm always down to check out a good melt down. As for which loss hurts which fan base more, I think it has to be the Vikings loss. They had one hell of a charmed season and saw it as their opportunity to finally get the elusive Lombardi. And it failed. And they still talk about that game today, a year later. They still whine about the penalties, still think the refs screwed them and still think they had the better team, despite turning the ball over 6 times. I mean, really, for the Vikings, last year was it. It was *the* year for the Vikings to finally get over the hurdle. It was seen as their best shot in franchise history to bring the trophy to their place, and to top it off, they would have been able to do it with their most hated rivals former hero. Talk about icing on the cake! But they failed, and as a Packer fan, nothing brought me more joy than seeing Tracy Porter make that pick, only to cap it off with a nice mocking of Jared Allen. I whooped for joy when Garrett Hartley made the game winning field goal in overtime to seal the deal. This loss for the Bears stings to be sure. It was for all the marbles, to be considered the best in the NFC and for a trip to the Super Bowl. It was also for the right to brag for the next 20 years. That said, both fanbases know this game could have gone either way. These two teams are always tough outs for one another. This is also a rivalry built on mutual respect, outside of the fans anyway. The Bears fans will recover, probably sooner rather than later. I don't know if that's true for Vikings fans, as they're still railing on last year's loss. [/QUOTE]
