    Great. My team’s quarterback fumbles like Jesus told him to, and now the ball will be coated in a gallon of liquefied, unpasteurized fromunda cheese on every down.

      The Comments on that one are absolutely the best of the series, in each way possible.

        The last time the Vikings went to the Super Bowl, the original Star Wars film was not yet released. Elvis, Bing Crosby, and Charlie Chaplin were still alive. The last person to be executed by guillotine in France happened 8 months after the Vikings made their last Super Bowl appearance.
        Vikings seasons are like David Lynch movies. For a moment there’s a moment of hope that this will have a happy ending but the season ALWAYS concludes in the most ****ed up way possible.
        I can’t even enjoy the surprising Twins relevancy, because my love of Minnesota sports has completely broken me for experiencing joy. My wife explains away my constant skepticism to strangers with. “Well, he’s a Vikings fan,” and it’s always invariably greeted with, “Oh, I’m so sorry.” IN KANSAS ****ING CITY.

        We're the perpetual Charlie Brown falling for that bi*ch Lucy's promise of redemption. Honestly I don't know how this franchise has any fans left that isn't under the age of 20. But they continue to sell out, get great ratings and you always see a lot of fans at their away games.

        Luckily I stopped being completely vested after the '98 season. I still pay attention and want them to win but ever since then I've never lost my s**t over every subsequent and inevitably incomprehensible and uniquely Viking playoff collapse.

              Luckily Viking fans don't have to worry about ever having a team good enough for other fan bases to hate them for it.

                I've never hated the Packers. It's their fans.

                  The Packers dont really win that much. At least not since before i was born.

                    Exactly. Or the Cubs until they broke through again. All you need to know if you're a Minnesota Sports fan is it took the Cubs over 100 years to get another Title. If 100 years are the benchmark I'll be dead and buried before the Vikings, Wild, or Wolves wins their first title and the Twins win their third.

                    So, I've pretty much stopped thinking it's ever going to happen.

                      They creep up on you. I was amazed looking at their record a few years ago that they have actually be a really strong team. It's just that to people my age (mid 50s) they spent our formative years and a way after in the toilet so we'll always consider them a ruin like Cleveland.

                        Aren't you a Bears fan? Green Bay as much as I hate to say it has had 2 SB wins since the Bears only title and 1 since the Bears last appearance. They had the 3rd highest WIN% from 2010-2017 the Bears were 24th. From 2000-2009 Chicago had 5 losing seasons, Green Bay 1.

                            Is there any difference at all between the fan bases of CHI, GB, DET, and MIN? I think of them all as corn-over-fed, cold, grumbling, seasonal affect disorder depressed, and alcoholic. From outside the Norris Division it all looks the same.

                            It's like four ant hills out in the middle of a field in Potsdam, NY, in February, at dusk. Presumably they can tell each other apart enough to fight, but we can't.

                              Personally I feel bad for Lions and Vikings fans who don't seem to have done anything to deserve those football teams (unlike say Colts fans). Green Bay fans have an annoying habit of pumping up their QB's as the GOAT after 1 SB win when there's like 10 other quarterbacks with a better claim to that title. I'll never forgive the Bears for gifting Peyton Manning his first Super Bowl which is the opposite of how Drew Brees could turn out to be a serial killer and I'd show up at his sentencing hearing to plead for mercy given how he saved us from 9 bazillion annoying commercials after the Saints beat the Colts a few years later.

                                For the locals, if you were trying to contrast the fan bases?

                                Here's the best I can come up with but none of them are very strong identifiers to me:

                                DET: (I draw a perfect blank. Are there any Lions fans?)
                                CHI: bandwagon and brittle (slightly less ridiculous Pats fans)
                                GB: loyal but self-congratulatory (St. Louis Cardinals fans)
                                MIN: cursed, doomed, spiritually beaten (deeply reminiscent of Mets fans)
                                Cornell University

                                Ivy League Champion 1966, 1967, 1968, 1969, 1970, 1971, 1972, 1973, 1977, 1978, 1983, 1984, 1985, 1996, 1997, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2012, 2014, 2018, 2019, 2020
