An Open Letter To Brett Favre

Dear Brett, With each passing day, it appears more and more likely that you will in fact return – again – to play in the NFL. This time around with one of the crappiest franchises in pro sports, the Minnesota Vikings. Are you seriously going through with this? I mean, after last year’s fiasco of [...]

Surprise! Favre To Meet With Childress About Comeback

Brett Favre

Never saw this coming. Never in a million years. ESPN’s Ed Werder is reporting that Brett Favre will meet with Minnesota Vikings’ coach Brad Childress to discuss a possible comeback.

Favre Wants To Stick It To The Packers

Brett Favre

Although I personally have no idea what goes through the head of Brett Favre, word out of New York is that Brett Favre wants to stick it to the Green Bay Packers by playing with the Minnesota Vikings. “Favre can’t stand Green Bay,” a source told the New York Daily News’ Gary Myers. “He wants [...]

Brett Favre

From the files of The Story, And Person, That Just Wouldn’t Go Away comes the nugget that one Brett Lorenzo Favre has gained his release from the New York Jets, clearing the way for him to sign with any NFL team should he decide to unretire… again. So, let’s say Favre gets the itch to [...]

Brad Childress, Creep

Not much to discuss about the Green Bay Packers until we get closer to the draft. So we might as well bash the Minnesota Vikings. This video was submitted by our good friend and die hard Green Bay Packers fan, Aaron AKA Tandem Punch Silver. Be sure to share this with all of your friends. [...]

The View to the West: A Look at the Minnesota Vikings

From Viking Underground

Since there has been minimal Green Bay Packers news for us to talk about or rumors to speculate about lately, we thought we’d take a look at our hated rivals to the west, the Minnesota Vikings, aka the Queens, and the idiotic moves they’ve been making this offseason. Last week the Queens lost former Packers [...]

Free Agency 2009: Day 2 Update

Chris Canty

The Green Bay Packers didn’t make a peep on day two of the free agency signing period and appear to be content waiting around for now, while trying to secure a visit from Dallas Cowboys defensive end, Chris Canty. Several players signed contracts today, and the most interesting news out of Green Bay was that [...]

Sage Rosenfels – Get to Know Him

Why should you care about the second-string quarterback for the Houston Texans? Because reports suggest that Sage Rosenfels is about to be become a Minnesota Viking, and he’s a big upgrade over the two-headed monster known as Tarvaris Jackson/Gus Frerotte. The deal is rumored to be for a fourth-round draft choice, and would considerably shore [...]

The Vikings to Los Angeles?

Los Angeles Stadium

We’ve talked about the hated Minnesota Vikings stadium and revenue issues before, but once again, the Minneapolis media is mentioning the possibility of the Vikings moving to Los Angeles. Other than the fact that the state of Minnesota hasn’t ponied up for a new stadium for the Vikings, like they did for the Twins, this [...]

Vikings Make Playoffs, No One Cares

Since someone from the NFC North had to make the playoffs, and the Green Bay Packers managed to suck it up enough to descend into the nether regions of the league, the NFL let the Minnesota Vikings in after they narrowly got by the New York Giants junior varsity on Sunday. Yeah, the VIkings inspiring [...]

Cowboys Don’t Implode, Packers Do

Jaguars Roar

Numb. That about sums up how I feel about the Green Bay Packers after their 20-16 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars yesterday. Pretty much every aspect of the game was ugly. The overwhelming feeling that the Packers have been in this situation before, that they wouldn’t come through on a particular play, and that this [...]

Cowboys Ready to Implode, Vikings Ready to Suck

Tarvaris Jackson

It’s hard to find silver linings in the 2008 NFL season lately, but the misfortune of the Green Bay Packers’ sworn enemies definitely qualifies. First, to Dallas, where the Cowboys are getting ready to implode because of guess who? The ubiquitous Terrell Owens – who else? It seems that TO isn’t on the same page [...]

Vikings’ Fat-Ass Drug Abusers Will Play Sunday

Pat Williams and Kevin Williams

It’s official. The Minnesota Vikings’ two-tons-of-fun defensive tackles, Kevin Williams and Pat Williams will play this weekend after a federal judge blocked the NFL from suspending the twin tubs of lard. Williams and Williams – not be confused with Johnson & Johnson – tested positive for a banned diuretic in the dietary supplement StarCaps back in [...]

Buuuuuuullshit! Hometown Judge Blocks Vikings Suspensions

Pat Williams and Kevin Williams

A Minnesota (really??) judge has blocked the suspensions of the Minnesota Vikings’ tubby defensive linemen Pat Williams and Kevin Williams. No relation. Hennepin County District Judge Gary Larson issued the temporary restraining order at the players’ request, saying he wanted more time to hear arguments in the case. No further hearing date immediately was set. [...]

It Ain’t Over Yet – Vikings’ DTs Suspended!

Pat Williams and Kevin Williams

If there was ever a light at the end of the tunnel, this is it. The Minnesota Vikings’ all-star duo of obese defensive tackles, Pat Williams and Kevin Williams, have officially been suspended for the final four games of the season. Both were suspended for violating the NFL’s drug policy, having tested positive for using [...]

The Packers Are Dead, Long Live The Packers

Aaron Rodgers

With yet another heartbreaking 4 points-or-less loss, the Green Bay Packers have all but assured that the playoffs will be out of their reach, with their 35-31 defeat at the hands of the Carolina Panthers. The Packers don’t deserve it this year, not this coaching staff, not this underachieving group of players. But it’s hard [...]

Vikings vs. Packers: Who Sucked And Who Didn’t

Nick Barnett has been lost for the season.

Every week the Green Bay Packers are starting to look more and more like a team that simply won’t live up to expectations. Yesterday, the Packers lost yet another close game to an inferior opponent, this time, 28-27 to the Minnesota Vikings. The Packers should be better than this. Maybe it’s time to accept that [...]

Get to Know a Viking: Ragnar

ragnar. easy does it.

My unwavering hatred of all things Minnesota Vikings is well documented. I have made no secret of the fact that the old Purple and Gold makes my taint hurt. From legendary douchebags of yesteryear (Cris Carter and John Randle) to the douchebags of today (Jared Allen and Pat Williams) I have hated them all. I [...]

Packers vs. Titans Game Notes

LenDale White

This was one of the Green Bay Packers’ more disappointing losses of the year, in part because the Packers actually played well for most of the game. The lines held their own on both sides of the ball against the normally dominant Tennessee Titans’ lines. In the end, the Packers were overwhelmed when it counted most. When [...]
