Making it to a Super Bowl has never been the Vikings problem.
That community is already in the process of dissolution where each man begins to eye his neighbor as a possible enemy, where non-conformity with the accepted creed, political as well as religious, is a mark of disaffection; where denunciation, without specification or backing, takes the place of evidence; where orthodoxy chokes freedom of dissent; where faith in the eventual supremacy of reason has become so timid that we dare not enter our convictions in the open lists, to win or lose.
Hasnt it been 40 yrs? Seems like a problem.
It isn't in the same category as Detroit or Cleveland though.Hasnt it been 40 yrs? Seems like a problem.

But if I mention Gary Anderson to a Vikings fan, they fly off the handle.

Nah, he missed one FGA all year. I don't blame him at all. Denny Green should never have kneed the team into such a position.

Washington will self destruct. The Curse of Cooke and Allen continues as long as Danny Boy owns the team and Bruce the Wunderkid ru(i)ns it.
Mookie would take the two over the clowns.....
Or else bet ‘never’ for all three
Antonio Brown suffered frostbite during cryotherapy, hence why his feet look like they do.

Oh I understand that. My list is who is locked forever in my mind as "deserving" in the NFL. These things set in stone when you're 12.
It's the same reason that MLB is:
NL:
1. Pgh
2. LA
3. Cin
AL:
1. Oak
2. Bal
3. KC
Doesn't matter that some of these teams have not been good in this millennium. It's what is supposed to be.

This week, on Days of our Raiders...
Michigan Tech Huskies Pep Band: There's No Use Trying To Talk. No Human Sound Can Stand Up To This. Loud Enough To Knock You Down.
College football during my formative years (1970s) was dominated on NYD by these teams and even if I hate most of them I have a similar feeling of, "they should be there" even to this day, right or wrong:
Oklahoma
Alabam
Nebraska
Michigan
USC
Ohio State
Notre Dame
Penn State
Texas
Arizona State
Arkansas
Hell every Rose Bowl in the 70's (my favorite game I guess because, "BIG TEN!") had either UMi or OSU and mostly USC from the PAC10 with a few others sprinkled in but not enough to recognize. Maybe UCLA.
Which is why I’m so satisfied with Nebraska football since 2002 — it’s fun not seeing them relevant.
The Why Your Team Sucks for the Redskins is up, and it's just a list of facts.

I remember Georgia Tech being in there too. UCLA used to be in every Rose Bowl USC wasn't. Pitt had that one run.
The NCAA champions shows just how top-heavy it was then. It was the EPL:
1970 Nebraska
1971 Nebraska
1972 USC
1973 Notre Dame
1974 Oklahoma
1975 Oklahoma
1976 Pittsburgh
1977 Notre Dame
1978 Alabama
1979 Alabama
