Not consistent enough performance to be an elite team - elite teams don't lose to half arse teams on back to back weeks late in the season.

Okay... I'll bite... who is an "elite" team then? I'm not sure the Vikes are, but a Top 4 NFL team is a pretty good start...

[Cooter]

I don't think there is much for elite teams this year other than the Colts and Saints. The Queens losses to the Panthers and Bears were examples of less than good ball playing that showed up over the course of the season.

Still laughing here

I think NFL nation might disagree with you. Last i checked the poll on ESPN asking who was going to win the superbowl had the vikings leading with 37% of the vote. I think anyone would agree both the saints and vikings were elite this year.

[Cooter]

Yeah, don't expect many to agree with me there, I'll give redit when due but don't feel its time yet. I'm still in the denial stages and have one more week to stay there

It looks as though the 96 Packers werent an elite team either, since they lost back to back games in Novenmber!

And who is that team that they lost to in week 4?

[Cooter]

That game in week 4 was rigged all the way I wonder what the Chiefs and Cowboys records were that year?

Anyways, if you guys didn't have a bitter Packer fan to get under your skin what fun would that be? LMITOUT can't do it all by himself - whatever team it is he roots for.

[bottom-bouncer]

[Stcloudangler]

Pretty tough to rip this team the way they played last weekend... Im sure hes trying hard to think of something though

[LMITOUT]

were is limit anyway?

Me and the one-legged kid with asthma went fishing this afternoon. He's a big Vikings fan so he was pretty fired up about yesterday. I've always felt sorry for him so I try to take him out once in a while, but summer is tough with his asthma and all. We ended up icing 6 walleye and a largemouth bass. He was pretty excited about the bass but he ain't the brightest either.

Some of you guys should get out fishing more often...it was a gorgeous afternoon to be out. I sense a lot of pent up aggression, fear, and denial in your posts. Yeah, I know....you're always nervous if mom is going to pick you up at the landing like she said she's going to, but you know she always does. I mean, really, she'd be lonely with nobody living in the basement.

[Dark Cloud]

Lmitout - for that post you deserve a Dos Equis.

[Jim Uran]

LMAO!!!!!!!

[bottom-bouncer]

That was a great post limit! Now answer the question. or forever hold your peace.

MINNESOTA VIKINGS!

[Gordie]

LMIT will know what his favorite team is after the super bowl then try and follow that team next season

LMIT as for my mom picking me up at the landing thats not a problem and she said she'd even give you and the big one-legged kid with asthama a ride home like she's done before

[Scott M]

LOL!

Guys, you know you can’t get a straight answer from an

Go Vikes!

[Stcloudangler]
