I would rather my nuts be nailed to a tree stump and be pushed over backwards, than cheer for the Packers.  I don't know. Let's try it first and see. Video proof or you lose the right to make that claim. |

Steelers fans travel as well as any fanbase in the league and they're giving them an away game in London? As a Steelers fan, I wouldn't be too amused. |

So, two games in London next year? I think this is a mistake. I think once every other year is fine, but every year, plus another game now? It's American Football, no one really gives a damn about it other than folks on the America continent. They have their Soccer. NFL, know your role and quite being greedy assholes and taking NFL home games away from their respective teams. |

I'm actually surprised that those peasents over in Europe can afford tickets to see the game. Not that they'd actually get the game, anyway, with their inferior brainpower. And teeth. |

Come on now, remember...this is the Purple people.
If you could get out of Minnesota for a couple weeks and spend it in, ahem, one of the great cities of the world, it should be a no-brainer. :)
London > Minnesota:
Better beer.
Better pubs.
Better-looking women.
Better accent.
Better food, both the high end stuff and the pub grub.
Better cheese.
Better whisky, gin, and brandy.
Better mass transit.
Better museums.
Better hotels.
Better tourist stuff.
Better bookstores.
Better doner kebabs (a/k/a gyros).
Better castles.
Better jokes.
Better parks.
All of which also count as "more better things to do than watch a Viking game". Ahem, but that's another thread for another forum.
Did I miss anything?

None of the above. It wouldn't have been a wasted vote. Obama and Romney -- Those were the wasted votes. |

However, the Vikings vs Steelers? Can there be a more boring game? Sorry Rock. The NFL must really hate Europeans. |
My man Donald Driver  (thanks to Pack93z for the pic) 2010 will be seen as the beginning of the new Packers dynasty.    |

Might just take him up on that offer of the shirt!!!! You have an opinion, just as I stated mine. It's not classless, nor is it ban worthy. Now, if you say Barry Sanders was terrible and over rated ... well ... then ... banishment must be a consideration! Take him up on it! I would, if it were a stitched Adrian Peterson jersey. I make everything look good and it would be an appropriate challenge to uphold that factoid. |
