[QUOTE="wils0646, post: 8334, member: 159"] I saw this on another board and I thought a lot of you guys would appreciate it. It's a general idea acquired by those who observe the activities of the Vikings year in and year out. It plays out like this: Act 1 FREE AGENCY **** -scene one: The Vikings organization signs half a dozen free agents -scene two: Vikings fans tout those free agents as the greatest players at their respective positions -scene three: Fans of other teams are derided as "morons" for pointing out that FA "A" hasn't started a full season in three years, FA "B" is 43 years old and a recent amputee, etc. Act 2 BOASTS OF GLORY -scene one: Vikings fans award themselves the NFC North, NFC Championship, Superbowl, and title as greatest team ever -scene two: Vikings fans predict a sub .500 year for the Packers -scene three: Vikings fans deride fans of other teams for using logic to point out the respective strengths and weaknesses of the Vikings opponents and the Vikings. Act 3 EARLY VICTORIES -scene one: The Vikings rattle off a solid first half record -scene two: Vikings fans repeat boasts of glory -scene three: Fans of other teams are derided for pointing out that the collective record of opponents was 2-28, that they were starting their water boy in place of QB, that they won by a last second FG that bounced off one of their opponents helmets before landing on the crossbar and falling in. Act 4 LATE SEASON MELTDOWN -scene one: Vikings play the Giants and Packers (need I say more?) -scene two: Vikings fans complain about how their team was "robbed" -scene three: The Vikings front office leaks a memo, letter, or some other evidence "proving" that the Vikings were robbed Act 5 SOUR GRAPES -scene one: The Vikings finish the season at .500 or worse -scene two: Vikings fans complain again about being robbed and point to the game or two they lost by a TD or less while ignoring the three or more they won under questionable circumstances by a TD or less -scene three: Vikings fans minimize the team that bested them for the divisional title and root for them to lose For those of you without a program, we're in Act Two, scene 3.
