I bleed purple first but the ‘91 World Series was massive for my sports psyche.
I would guess for the majority of the over 50 crowd on here… the t wolves and wild weren’t here when we were kids… so, I would think it may not be the same feeling as the Vikings foremost (cuz it’s been never) and the Twins cuz we was raised on them and it’s been 30 years.
Jim Harbaugh. Too late?
My 1988 high school team was pure finesse. Got out-handled, gunned, hit, tackled, runned but not out-finessed.
Dobbs just drove us down the field on the previous drive. Pick any of those.
What salts my ass the most besides the playing not to lose mentality he brought again last night is him throwing his QB under the bus in the press immediately after the game (yes Dobbs sucked).
Ask Mike Zimmer, you don’t manage or coach your team through the media. Locker rooms and trust are lost pretty quickly that way.
But why say it publicly without talking to players first? What does it gain?
You mean the guy that KOC said four weeks ago “we had to get.” Now he throw him under the bus immediately after a game.
Lost respect for him. Players will too. Classless cop out shit.
Coach being a coward when it comes time to win games is one of our biggest issues.
Kirk was balling without JJ. Winning. You goofy.
KOC lost this game. Lost last one too. Playing not to lose never wins.
This team goes as KAT goes.
Fans will do and say fan things. Part of the passion.
I been a Vikings fan since 1969. Fukk, one week they dogshit and fire everyone and next week we going to Super Bowl has been my m.o. the entire time.
2022, 2017 were way more fun
You show them
I heart KAT. Edwards may be the superstar but this team goes as KAT goes.
I am a rare Vikings fan who doesn’t hate the saints. My opinion comes from the experience I had at the 2009 NFCG. Three of us went down for two days and wore purple the whole time. We stayed just of the Quarter.
We could not have been more warmly received by folks. In the stadium and outside the stadium, people were actually happy we were there. And they showed it… buying drinks, getting a dinner check!, coming up to us to say “thanks”. At the game, we sat by an extended family of season ticket holders who acted as our guardians and were pumped that “this is such a great game.”
In the end, the Vikings should have won. But I was happy for the saints to win the Super Bowl. The people of New Orleans are some of the hospitable in the country and with Katrina and government mismanagement had seen the raw end of American dispassion. However, they stayed their warm and charming selves. For that, they deserved an epic celebration.
I have no clue how to read that
Fred Cox. You will look like you been here forever.
There is a reason we have had the most one score games the last two years. A coach without a killer instinct. Can’t teach that. Hate to say it but he ain’t taking us places.
