I have been to 5 Packer games at the Metrodome that I can remember, and we're 0-fuqing5 in those games, and 4 of them were with Farve as our QB.
I've seen about 16 games in person with Farve playing, and while we were about 10-6, he sucked overall. I saw a crappy win in Tampa Bay that was all defense. I saw a crappy low scoring win in St Louis in the title season, I saw a loss at Detroit, yes Detroit! The Silverdome. I saw his ugly *** loss in Dallas in 2007 when he put us in a 27-10 hole then exited hurt after his 2nd int, then Arod came in and almost dug us all the way out. That's when I KNEW we had ourselves our new QB.
I saw the home loss to the Vikings also in 1998 when Randy Moss introduced himself to the world and Packer fans, and Ron Wolf who passed on him in the draft that year.
So it's easy to see why I hate the Vikings, and think Farve has always been overrated. What I saw was nothing better than a decent QB. But all his troubles were always when faced with a big pass rush, and we never sacked that bastard once last year and that pissed me off big time. Big big time. I want him feeling pain early and often against us, and then he'll serve up some Ints on platter for Woody, Collins, and Burnett!
As for Viking fans in general: They are, overall, the worst I have ever seen, and I have seen games in many stadiums, cities.
Now I have to admit there are some great great loyal Viking fans. Some are just as good and smart as Packer fans. But they definitely do have the most bandwagon fans (percentage-wise) that I have ever come across.
They can sell out, but then when they're bad, all of a sudden they're barely able to sellout. We know our story with the million-year waiting list for a ticket.
I root for the Vikings to lose every year, every game, even if I have money on the Vikings. Well if it's a big wager, then I might root for the Grape Apes !
I never wish for injuries to anyone. But they happen. We've lost Kampman, Harris, Barnett, Tauscher, and Will Blackmon to ACL's the past 2 seasons. I'm telling you, they are overdue. They had EJ Henderson and then Cedric Griffen.
When is Jared Allen going down?
