So that's like 190 pro seasons between those teams, with 2 championships. .0105% We can even back it up to making it to the finals, not winning it. Twins did it 3 times, Vikings 4, North Stars/Wild 2, Wolves 0. That's 9 championship appearances in 190 tries. That is pathetic! Anyway, way off topic but that is why I just expect the worst now and I'm never let down. Im reading all your posts to my coworker who is a huge Vikings fan (but from Los Angeles) and he is cracking up! (He agrees 100% btw) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(He agrees 100% btw) Add in the fact that the Hail Mary was coined on a play that knocked the best Vikings team ever assembled (So coined by my dad and others around to remember) with a very controversial push off from the Cowboys and it has not been easy being a Vikings fan. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cleveland's mayor sued to keep the Browns name in Cleveland, don't think for a second that was Modell doing us a solid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonebone | 1,307 Posted January 9, 2020 Share Posted January 9, 2020 Pics for the upcoming games this weekend? I have to be a homer and take all of the favorites: At San Fran (-7) vs. MinnesotaAt Baltimore (-9.5) vs. TennesseeAt Kansas City (-9.5) vs. HoustonAt Green Bay (-4) vs. Seattle Of the 4 games I really wanted to pick Seattle but I won't disrespect GB like that. They've earned their spot and this not your typical GB of years past. They can actually run the ball and they have a great Defense too. They've changed their identity and should be able to take it to Seattle. But Seattle is playoff tested over the last decade and you can never count them out. I think Minnesota has a decent shot at San Fran but can't pick them. I do expect that to be closer than 7 though. Baltimore *should* destroy the Titans. There would have to be injuries or crazy turnovers for the Titans to win that one. KC and Houston... can't believe it's 9.5 spread! I would take Houston and 9.5 points all day. This should be a close game and a very entertaining one to watch too. KC is about as healthy as they've been all season and Houston looked horrible in the first 3 quarters of the Buffalo game, but each side has some playmakers. Looking forward to this game the most.

Seattle is no joke, we have a long standing playoff history with them. There is nothing more that I'd enjoy than spanking them at home, but I'm a realist and RW/Metcalf work for the devil.

doner24 | 1,197 Moderator · Posted January 10, 2020 Share Posted January 10, 2020 My picks: Vikings over 49ers-we match up scarily well with them. Shades of 1988 anyone?!? Seahawks over Packers-Wilson magic coming right up Ravens over Titans-Jackson is too tough, although I think it’s closer than most think KC over Texans-Blowout city in this game. Mahomes goes off.

Blowout City implies that the KC defense can also shut down Houston... don't see that happening. Looks like the over / under is about 50 for that game and I'll take the over.

Their D has been better, and KC is a really hard place to play. I wouldn't be surprised by a lower scoring game than expected. Might still go over but im not certain it will go way over as much as you seem it might. Edited January 11, 2020 by Quest4Nes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
