Nice posting/article, minus the several typos (but hey, if I can survive this posting without 1-2 myself, it'll be a miracle).

See, that's all we (most Vikings fans) really want. A respectful and fun rivalry where we politely hate each other two weeks/season, then get along and wish each other well the other 50 weeks out of the year. Whether Favre is Zeus on the field or whether Favre throws 6 INTs/game, who cares when it comes to Vikings fans vs. Packer fans? You win some, we win some. You win some division titles, we win some division titles. You win some Super Bowls, we....er ....GET TO some Super Bowls (lol).

I love football as much as the next guy. However, when compared to my family, my career, my faith, etc., it's just football. It's the tools out there who make you want to launch a few scuds East over the St. Croix and Mississippi Rivers...just like I'm sure it's the tools over here that make you want to return fire too. Let's just both hope for the best with our squads, then not be complete tools when one or the other comes out on top. Because you KNOW the Bears and Lions ain't got ANYTHING on our two franchises...right?!

see the NFL needs more of these types of fans between rivalries. Football is just football. It really is the tools that make your head spin

I'd like to nominate all the tools (whereever) than refers to the Vikings as the Queens or Viqueens and the Packers as the fudge Packers. That may have been funny back in the day but at some point we all hit puberty.

marvelous response, my friend. we sometimes forget that it is a game. wonderful burst of perspective. (i still hope he throws 6 picks against us.)

Kinda like:Bill Parcells coaching the Patriots after the Giants

Bill Parcells coaching the Jets after the Patriots

Bill Parcells coaching the Cowboys after the Jets

Bill Parcells running the Dolphins after coaching the Cowboys

Don Coryell coaching the Chargers after the Cardinals

Reggie White playing for the Packers after the Eagles

Richard Seymor playing for the Raiders after the Patriots

Darren Sharper playing for the Vikings after the Packers

Ryan Longwell playing for the Vikings after the Packers

Fritz Shermer coaching for the Vikings after the Packers

Mike Holgrem coaching the Seahawks after the Packers

Brett Favre playing for the Packers AFTER the Falcons

Kurt Warner playing for the Rams/Giants/Cardinals in two Super Bowls after the Packers

Only non-Packer fans and news services actually care to make a big deal about it. Although Chicago fans I know are really really really really pissed off about it!!!!!!!!!
