it would be HILARIOUS.

OK, so I'm a lifelong Viking fan (grew up in eastern ND) now living 45 miles south of Green Bay, so I clearly have a different view of the world than you, but the exploded heads I would get to see at school on Monday would be incredible.

I want to see them go undefeated once in his lifetime. Next to my husband, my father is the greatest man that ever lived, and I would love for that to happen for him (followed closely by Bart Starr ). So it wouldn't even be hilarious. I am honest when I say, since they have gotten this far, it would break what is left of my heart.

but you need to put somethings in perspective. How many Superbowl Championships have you seen your team win? Put yourself in the seat of many different teams (I have been a Vikings fan for over 40 years and the heartbreak of them not winning the Superbowl is huge). Perhaps your dad is unassuming, but there are plenty of douchebags here who thing that the Packers somehow have an undefeated season owed to them and they can't ever realize the importance of what they have witnessed seeing their team win the ring and possibly another ring back-to-back.

I'm still going with hilarious--your dad aside.

my son's a Lions fan. Even the Vikes fans have it better than them. If it makes you feel better, I really wanted to see the Vikings with the SB with Brett as the QB. That aside, there are far more awesome Packer fans than dickish ones. If anything, the Pack's season has been overshadowed anyway this year, by Saint Tebow.

Still not hilarious.

we have had our share of heartache and this season isn't any different, but all we can do now is play spoiler...


Part of me wants them to Win Big, part of me wants GB to go undefeated.

Chiefs play spoiler, and GB loses their first game. Ugh..... Not sure who's wearing those Packers uniforms. Surely not the 13 - 0 high flying offense. Ugh. GO PACK GO
