I'm with ya! When the Vikes put the smackdown on the Packers like that you gotta gloat a little ; )
You know they would! To all my Packer fishing buddies-- this was the biggest game in this long rivalry, and the best team on the night was the Minnesota Vikings. Go Purple!

What do you guys and gals think about what moss did with the mooning?

Livewell · « **Reply #3 on:** Jan 10, 2005, 08:10 PM »

I didn't think Moss' "mooning" was any big deal, actually kind of funny after hearing about Packer fans mooning visiting team buses as they leave Lambeau. I think Moss' actions are getting way too much attention, even though I don't agree with them. He caught 2 TD passes and has earned his keep. If it helps the teams' performance by making this an issue, bring them on! I will be parked in Bemidji in front of the big screen cheering the Vikes on against Philly. Can they do it, yes. Will they do it, don't know.

Moss is just trying to get attention....he's succeeding...good for him!!

Only i you want them to pull a gun on you

ha ha. I am refering to a news story I saw last night. Great win for the Vikes but I am afraid to get my hopes up. this will be new territory for them. I mean a second round win. well maybe with the cold snap heII will indeed freeze over and the vikes will be super bowl bound.

I am not a fan, but I was impressed.
Why weren't you guys fishing?

playoffs with my fav team allow me to take several hours away from my ice fishing time.................. .plus the fish weren't biting...lol

I'd rather lose with Favre than win with Moss. Moss is a poster child of what is wrong with pro sports today. Walking off the field before a game is done, mooning fans, his incident with the cops last year. He is a complete low life. The Packers win the division and still get a higher draft pick than Minnesota after they sneak into the playoffs through the back door. Culpepper will choke this week.

If Moss is a lowlife for mooning the fans then Are the packer fans that moon the visting team as they leave also lowlifes

. I would get used to loosing with Farve also I agree he WAS a great football QB but it is over. The game was over when Moss left. It is impossible to get the ball on a onside kick and get out of bounds in two seconds and since the only way the game can continue after time has run out is from a defense penalty and vikes on defense game over.

Amazing how Vikes fans defend this lowlife. Fans mooning the team bus as they leave is one thing, acting like your doing it on national tv is another. He is paid millions to be a "professional". This includes representing your team positively on and off the field. If he stuck his butt out a window on the team bus and mooned fans who would care. As a Packers fan it is embarrassing that a few "fans" would stoop to mooning. There are a few knuckleheads in every crowd and apparently some on the field as well. What kind of team player leaves the field so he doesn't yell at teammates or coaches? He is probably the most physically gifted receiver to ever play the game but he is a cancer. How do you defend his incident with the cop last year? Favre is on the downside to a career that was one of the best ever. He is however still in the upper 1/3 of the qb's in the league. The team has been in greater decline the last couple years than he has.

Its all said and done and the Vikings got the W and the PACK goes home!!!! LOL

BlackIce · « **Reply #14 on:** Jan 11, 2005, 03:54 PM »

Could be worse I could watch home games in that dome you call a football stadium cheering for guys wearing purple. I'll leave championships and stuff out of it too

fishhead4268 · « **Reply #15 on:** Jan 11, 2005, 08:17 PM »

Its all in good fun, I have loved the Vikes when they couldnt win nothin and they still havnt,

Reelinrolly · « **Reply #16 on:** Jan 11, 2005, 10:03 PM »

meh.......there is no doubt that Favre is and was an amazing QB and is a very respectable guy....and although I don't agree with all the things moss has done, I thought it was hilarious that he fake mooned the crowd.....looked good on them......he was havign a little fun and people couldn't handle it.....way to much publicity on this whole event.....plus my best friend is a huge packer fan and did I ever have fun rubbing it in....but its all in good fun......and the vikes will take it in the next round.....GO VIKINGS GO

Gotta drop my 2 cents in here. I moved out to Pennsylvania last April for work, I'm only 85 miles from Philadelphia so I am stuck in Eagles territory. Which sucks, but this Sunday should be interesting. My wife and i are heading down to the local sports bar to cheer on the Vikes in the midst of all the dumba$$ Eagle fans. Should be fun!
As far as the Moss mooning incident goes... It has been totally blown out of proportion and definately doesn't compare to pulling a pen out and signing autographs after a TD. Or using a cell phone, or miming the use of one to gloat about your skills.
Far as I am concerned any showboating in the endzone is not needed. When you finish a project at work you don't dance the "Icky shuffle" When you get a 4% raise you dont do the Dirty bird. You know why? Cuz that is your job! Football is their job so the need to dance, strut and preen isn't there. But then I don't make $5,000,000 per year.
I didn't in any way find any of it crude or crass, just boorish and unnecesary.
He, Moss, is getting far more press out of this than he deserves, but if it helps the Eagles think that the Vikes are unprepared and distracted, then all the better for us!

SKOAL VIKINGS!!!

Half hour till kickoff, and the first beer of the day. I'm a fellow long time fan who is also stuck in the middle of eagles territory. Got our fingers crossed, listening to those stupid commentators on fox, wish they'd retire
