we are 'the leading edge' HSO Creators Rick Posted January 17, 2013 we are 'the leading edge' HSO Creators Share Posted January 17, 2013 What about just being a fan of football in general? Do you have allegience to one team to be a fan? I suppose you can't just watch football for the beauty of the game. You have to be a fan of one team? That's utterly ridiculous. I like when the Vikes win but my life doesn't revolve around them, I get just as much enjoyment watching a college game as the pros. Of course someone can be a general fan of football. But there is no such thing as a true Vikings-Packer fan any more than oil and water mix. General fan or bandwagon fan sure, we can all see that You assuming one has to be a fan of one team is utterly ridiculous as is believing there is really such a thing as a true Vikings/Packers fan.

I thought I was a vikings fan with packer fan leanings... I have fam in wisco, cabin in wisco, and have alwyas liked the GB Qb situation a lot better than that in MN. Found out saturday that apparently I really don't cheer for the packers, as I found myself quite pleased with their dismal display of "football." It was, for lack of a better word... schadenfreude. I think the main reason I was confused is I hold far more negative feelings towards the other divisional opponents. I won't name them here as I feel that would validate them as NFL Franchises and I simply cannot go that far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually not. When the favored team loses it's called a choke job and the Pack choked it all up at SF Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinker Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 Ah, I see. Kinda like the '98 NFC Championship Game. And favored or not, 41-0 in a playoff game is a huge choke job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would consider the Vikings 3 biggest choke jobs to be rather big choke jobs.In no particular order,1998 against Atlanta2001 against the Giants2009 SaintsThose 3 games have made me a realistic fan. In fact the most devastating for me was the 01 Giants game. I went from a season ticket holder of 3 years, to watching maybe 3 games in 02, and 03 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antero Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 Actually not. When the favored team loses it's called a choke job and the Pack choked it all up at SF Last weeks line indicates you are wrong......that being said the Pack did not cover and they stunk. So when the NFC divisional playoffs odds opened with the 49ers as 3-point favorites, handicappers who recall that 6-0-1 ATS streak and who have watched the Packers dominate lately jumped on the line. "There has been a ton of Green Bay action at most sportsbooks, so they are a rare 'public dog' and the line is down to -2.5 across the board," explained Jack Randall, a football analyst at OddsShark.com.
