I've been watching the History channel, and they keep showing clips of an upcoming show "The Vikings". As usual, the History channel is not accurate on so called "History", as it shows the Vikings actually winning something.  |

They didn't win anything, they raped and pillaged. |

it seems the history channel is so desperate to fill air time they will show just about any old thing regardless of how little quality it has. |
One does not simply walk into Mordor.  |

The History Channel would do a show about the great and legendary meat packing industry in early Green Bay times.. but the history behind such monotonous subject is too simple to require elaboration.
Your team is named after the least intimating object in the history of any sports teams names. I'm more afraid of an oriole than any sort of meat/fudge packer. |
 Thanks to TheViking88 for the sig!! |

You wanna get intimate with us ... Packers?? I'd say your true colors are showing but ... How is that intimidating Vikings name working out for you and that trophy case? As for least intimidating sports team name, you need to research a little bit. I'll give you some time since I have a few off the top of my head already. Keep in mind, Meat Packers wear chain mail and use an extremely sharp blade. |

Speaking of meat packing, it is sausage week here in Paradise. Sausagefest 2013 will see a reduction of about 1000 lbs from 2012, but we'll still be cranking out around 6K lbs of various beef, pork, and venison products. |

BTW, the names of the teams have nothing to do with the trophy case. Why even bother bringing it up? |

Simply saying you struck a nerve, does not mean you did, nor does falsely claiming someone is butthurt, lol. You got nailed on three observations and you ignorantly fail to respond to any of them ... how precious!! I'm gonna go debate with a wall, it provides more value than you. |

is "Vikings" a tougher sounding name then
"meat packers"? yes.
Of course I'd rather have a weak name and
4 Super Bowl trophies then a tough name
and no SB wins.
Maybe that's just me though. |

Come over to the UK and say that!!! It's a lottery here with your meat. We haven't got a clue what's in our burgers now. I've probably been eating horse all my life!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
