It's not easy winning one,

I never understand how this fact gets overlooked when talking about a player's or GM's accomplishments. It IS hard as hell to win even one. Most players don't win one, most cities never get one.


There have only been 51 SuperBowl winners in the history of the world with just over 40% of those trophies resting in only 4 cities. If you have any of those, and certainly if you have one of only 30 not in Pittsburgh, NE, Dallas or San Fran then consider yourself lucky.

Championships are hard to come by and should never be discounted as "only 1".

Tangent Time....

I find it funny now that Rodgers is out that Ted Thompson is getting hammered by the National Media for not having talent around Rodgers. I've been telling Packer fans on this board for years and every time the conversation turns into how bad the Vikings. WTF does that have to do with Ted Thompson? Fuck I was able to drive Poolplayer so batty he got banned. That's just how a lot of Packer fans are.. "our players are the best." Well one would think after how this season ends Thompson will be shown the door.. I know they won a Super Bowl with him but you can thank #12 for that. Actually the big Buffoon McCarthy can thank Rodgers for a job as well, that guy is a terrible head coach just fucking brutal. But back to Thompson.. He has shown how clueless he and his staff are. They let go of Casey Heyward and now he's a pro bowler for the Bolts. He could have drafted Eric Kendricks but he drafts Rollins.. Could have had TJ Watt but drafts King.. King may develop into a good player but he already has marsh mellow head. it's just a mess over there and Ticket Casher is in denial about how bad this team is without Rodgers.

Now as for Minnesota winning the division.. I can see Detroit winning but the edge goes to the Vikes cause they now have the best offensive line in the division and the best defense. The loss to Detroit a couple weeks ago was a complete Fluke.. Speaking of injuries the packers are crying but the Vikes have had a ton too. What the hell can ya do? Cook is looking like a beast and then he tears his knee. Bradford looked sharp and then his knee swells up. Well soon it will be Teddy Bridgewater, they will give him every opportunity to start, they love that kid .. What will he do? Can he run? Will his leg fall off if hit a certain way? Don't know I know that before the injury he was mobile and improving with accuracy. IT was difficult to evaluate him cause they had absolutely no sustained running game and no pass protection, his offensive line could have been executed for attempted murder cause they tried to get him killed every week. Vikes and fans are just hoping they catch lightninig in a bottle or until Bradford is totally 100%. Keenum is not the answer he had guys running wide open this week and two weeks ago against Detroit but makes the wrong read. If Teddy does turn out to be the real deal they maybe playing late into January..

You try to jam up Packer fans, but you sound just like them. Fans are fans. The only difference between Packer fans and Viking fans is that one base is used to winning, and one is used to whining.
