This purple person is loving life, at least for now; This is the best Cheese head dis since Moss faux mooned the Packer Crackers in "Lambert" field.

Remember that?

Beautiful!!!
Joe Buck is a stick in the mud.

Why does he "retire" every year just to come back the one following?
Is he really that good?

because he's a drama queen.

he's maybe the most overrated QB of all-time. or at least his name would come up in the debate. but the talking heads love him, especially madden. they talk about him as if he's up there with montana, aikman, brady or bradshaw. as if he's won 3 or 4 super bowls when he's won as many as doug williams or trent dilfer has. one.


and like all viking seasons, this one too will end in tears.

If we beat the Packers twice with Favre at the helm than I think there won't be to many tears at the end of the year.

And the bitter pill is choked down and all of cheeseheadland is crying in their beer.


Love it, Love it, LOVE IT!!!

I thought of you as Farve was torching the Packers this weekend, What?

I don't hear much anymore from all those haters that criticized Farve and predicted doom and gloom during the preseason.

It's still weird seeing Farve in purple though.

HEY, watch the Joe Buck dis!!!!!!! We love Joe in St Louis..!

and, as predicted, the viking's season did end in tears, once again. favre's boneheaded, last second, INT cost his team a trip to the super bowl.

before you call someone a hater next time brad you might want to consider that they just might know more than you do.

Brett really screwed the pooch on that one. I knew an interception was coming...

Brett Favre, felled by his fatal flaw


By Gregg Easterbrook

Hamartia. The "tragic flaw" described by Aristotle: A leader cannot control his own inner shortcoming, which causes him to achieve the reverse of what he desired. In "Antigone," the king, Creon, tells himself he is acting in the interest of the city, when actually he is acting to glorify his own ego -- this hamartia destroys him. Brett Favre comes up a bit short of a character in ancient Thebes, but on Sunday he was brought low by hamartia all the same. It was not enough for Favre's team to reach the Super Bowl -- he had to get the credit. Game tied with 19 seconds remaining, Favre scrambled at about the New Orleans 40-yard line, with open field ahead of him. All he needed to do was run a few yards, hook-slide, call timeout, and the Vikings' strong-legged kicker, Ryan Longwell, had a solid chance to win the NFC championship. But the credit had to go to Favre; he had to throw a spectacular pass at the end, so television announcers would swoon. So he heave-hoed a dramatic across-the-field pass. It was intercepted, and the Saints won in overtime.

Perhaps you are thinking, "It was just a dumb mistake, and the whole thing happened in a couple of seconds." No. Two years of Favre's life built up to that moment. For two years, Favre has insisted that entire NFL franchises, the Jets and the Vikings, become thralls to his celebrity. He has used his stature to demand, demand, demand -- the crux of the demands are always attention and publicity for himself. Now he is brought low. In two of the past three seasons, Favre has lost in the NFC Championship Game. Each time, his team seemed poised to win at the end; each time, Favre's final play was a disastrous interception. And each of those title losses eventually came in overtime -- to punish Favre for his hamartia, twice the football gods allowed him to come so close, so close, then denied him. Favre has been brought so low, he is now being laughed at in Wisconsin, and he has only himself to blame. Aristotle would not be surprised by the ending of the Favre saga. If, of course, it was the ending.

Pffft, you are a hater, scylla. The Vikings were better this season because of Favre. By all accounts (except for the haters, of course), Favre had a career year. To lay all the blame for that last loss at Brett's feet is myopic, really. He contributed with that last interception, yes, but the 3 lost fumbles (2 in the red zone!) kept the Saints close enough to send it into overtime in the first place. The Saints defense was simply relentless and overpowering.

All the hate prior to the season was proven to be misplaced and erroneous.

racking up some gaudy stats when you have the second easiest schedule in the NFL is nice but favre was brought in, and paid an obscene amount of money, to win a super bowl for the vikes. he was said to be the final piece of the puzzle. yet once again, they failed.

as i said they would.

and yes, the fumbles didn't help but his inexcusable, brain dead, last second INT, a favre trademark, was what lost them the game. to suggest otherwise is laughable.

Favre is back.

Actual I am not as psyched as last year. Now the Pack has a chance to get to 500. vs a Farve in purple team.

Scylla your right. Longwell would have nailed that 56 yard + field goal. Yeah right. Sorry but Longwell doesn't have a big leg. The chances of making the field goal were about 1 in 20.

What?, you might be interested to know that scylla gives it up to the Cowboys every weekend, and has for, well, as long as I've been a member of this board. That just might explain his "objectivity" when it comes to his evaluation of your team, which kicked the Cowboys' ass in the playoffs like they were red-headed step-children.

Rumor has it the Tony Romo poster on the wall in his bedroom is so stained you can't even make out #9. Even his mom is appalled.

FYI i've wanted romo run out of town for 2 years now. he's a massive choker. he saves his worst games for the playoffs. he doesn't hate to lose and that makes him a loser. he doesn't care. saying "that's football" to explain another shit playoff performance don't cut it.

but my comment/prediction about favre was made at the beginning of last season. well before the vikes whipped the cowboys in the playoffs.
