Fair weather fan??? Yeah I haven't missed a game in 33 years and I am sure my dad plopped my ass in front of the TV before that, I can only remember the past 33..
I will always be a Viking fan and probably would root for the team even if they moved..
I just think it is fitting that the Wilf's may threaten to leave the state after bringing the team down to shit.
Yeah I know they were a pass away from the Super Bowl with Favre but everything went their way that year until they met the team of destiny.
It's almost like the ownership is purposely trying to bring the team to shit just so they will move. Hiring Brad Childress a man who was a horseshit O Coordinator for the Badgers and not allowed to even call the plays in Philly. He pist off a few players and even though it was T.O. , Owens told Childress by about week 7 not to talk to him the rest of the year. A coach that traded a slew of draft picks to acquire Tavaris Jackson and Center Ryan Cook...:facepalm:
Ok so they are new owners, we can give them a break. They fired Childress after Randy Moss begged them to and then they hire Leslie Frasier, a Childress philosophy type. 2 interviews and 2 head coaches. Frasier was regarded as a good coaching prospect..
Now you have the promotion of Rick Spielman to GM!! :facepalm: Holy fuck the team goes 3 - 13 and you hand out promotions.. I thought the team would bounce out of denial but the WIlf's think they are a player or two away.. Spielman is a guy who was in the Dolphin and Lions organizations and for some reason the Vikes had to have this guy. He left the Phins a mess and has fucked up so far in Minnesota. The denial continues when asked about his failures of late round drafting he says, "well C John Sullivan and S Jamarca Sanford were late round hits." I got news for you, just because they wear the uniform and start because you stupid fucks thin they are good do not mean they are hits. John Sullivan would be a back up in any other organization and Sanford would be selling hotdogs at half time. This un-rationale thinking has killed this team and will continue to do so..
So in closing. The state does not have money to put into the 1.2 billion dollar stadium they want to build. Legislators are trying like hell to come up with some type of site and idea to keep the Vikings here. Yes it would be great to do that but it is going to be very difficult in these financial times. With the endless stupidity the ownshership has I would be inclined to say "FUCK YOU" and "Take your dumb shit elsewhere" so you can save the state another 20 years of football humility.
