Packers @ Vikings Game Day Discussion Thread -- Week 8

[Demi]

I have a good feeling about this game

At this point that means we get blown out and everyone gets fired!

I'd like to take this moment to thank whoever invented the DVR.

Because of this person's efforts, I can record the game and watch it in the minimum amount of time ... getting it over quickly is going to be important this evening, I'm afraid.

We can hope

Oh god! we're in the mono-purple today

You would think Greg Jennings might be fired up about this game... he really has shown very little to justify his big salary and huge expectations so far this season and now he's flapping his gums about Aaron Rodgers... It's time for #15 to walk the walk.

Oh, noooooo.... not the freakin' Barney outfits! MY EYES!!!

That was an awesome last drive and game-winning TD from Stafford.

I loved the fact that the announcers were talking about how the Cowboys were finally over .500 at the halfway point, now with victory in hand. But the holding penalty was killer on the Cowboys. Without that, with Romo just taking a knee, I think the Cowboys prevail, just based on the fact that the Lions would have only had about 20 seconds left, instead of around a minute.

I picked up the Green Bay defense in fantasy football just to enjoy this matchup. If the Vikes win, I'm incredibly happy. If the Vikes suck, at least I'm really likely to win my fantasy game (against an Iowan, of all people). Worst case is a really great Vikings effort, losing 38-35 on a last second 55 yard Mason Crosby FG.

oohh yea!! The purple pants and jerseys, sweet!

Nooo! I just saw that. I hate that look.

Not only that but I'm petty sure the Vikings have never won a game in which they wore purple pants. It's time to ditch those suckers.

Thanks guys. I'm in my seat now. Little less than an hour to go. I have a good feeling about this game, but that could be due to all the Vikings love. Couldn't have asked for a more gorgeous night either. We got this!!! I'm drinking my water in preparation for all the yelling I'm about to do!!! Oh yeah, caught up with Syd so my brother could get a picture with him, too. It's been fun so far, hopefully the Vikings help that continue!

Where are ytou sitting? Make sure you do something to get yourself on TV!!

The purple pants paired with the white shirts is actually a beautiful look IMO. with the new unis I think one of the best in the league. BUT mono-purple just makes you wanna gouge your eyes out. Lets hope that the product is better tonight than it looks. Looking for a win against the Pack tonight or its gonna be a tough week with friends

Maybe tonight's massacre will be the death knell! I'm fully prepared to be cussing at my TV.

The beat Arizona in the "must win" where Chili was let go a few games later (and a few seasons too late). And I think they beat Chicago at home one year too.
Come on Jim, I expect more from you...

Walsh is kicking off in warmups. Hopefully he's fully healed, probably will need the big leg back.
