[QUOTE="NCPackerfan, post: 1585, member: 29"] First of all, sorry about the hit and running. I'm self employed and don't have time to stay logged in to these forums all the time. Let me also say that while I respect players like Chris Carter and Moss for their talent, I don't care for their attitudes. Moss is proving this week that he is all about himself with his leaving the field early stunt and whether you admit it or not, Carter was able to somehow get away with pushing off the db's without getting flagged and he seems to have passed his methods on to his protege, Moss. I've been following the Packers since the late 60's and during the early years, the Vikes had our number, but you couldn't help but respect the way they played. Bud Grant was a very good coach and they had some tough, hard nose players, especially on defense (Page, Eller, Krause etc.). Plus, they played outside, like the Packers. I grew to hate them because they beat us all the time, but I respected them as a team because they did it the right way. While this years version of the Vikings has a lot of talent, I have a hard time equating them to Grants team back then.
