And while losses this year aren't as week-ruining as they have been in previous seasons, losing still sucks balls. And when we play the Fudge or the Bears, I hope we demolish them. They are my number 1 and number 2 least favorite teams in the league.

And why do you have Aaron Fudgers in your avatar??
Really, you do not know why I have that "stupid" picture of Rogers as my avatar :lol: I despise the Packers!!!!

Which of you will be sitting in front of a tv and rooting and hoping for the Vikings to lose not only this week but the last 7 games :?: Keeping that in mind, by extension, those same people will be watching the Vikes play the Packers and Bears and be rooting for them to beat the Vikings. :puke:
I certainly willl be rooting for the Vikes all the way :rock:
Well I'll be sitting in front of the computer since the Vikings are rarely broadcast here and I don't think my condo association would look kindly on me sticking a satellite dish out the window. But otherwise, yeah I'll definitely be watching and rooting for them to win. I'll even continue to pay the absurd prices DirecTV charges for their online option, since there is no other (legal) option... :steamed:

Yeah, it looks like only posters in WA, MT, the Dakotas and MN will get to view the game on Fox. http://506sports.com/nfl.php?yr=2013&wk=11

The SF vs. NO game is the big one (w/ Buck and Aikman). Back to crappy internet feeds after a month of HD games for me. Oh well, I have a feeling it will be a blow out anyways.

Ummm why do you think I bag on Ponder so much? Because I want the Vikings to WIN, and as long as Ponder remains our QB, our odds of winning will remain low. Then there's your crazy logic, I hate losing, but YAY Ponder :confused: . I'm going to keep rooting for the things that are responsible for all this losing :wallbang: . It's like apologists suffer from stockholm syndrome. And although I never root for a loss, sometimes losing comes with a consolation prize, e.g. new coach, new QB, higher draft pick.
