that's pretty much what I'm saying. They may not fall flat on their face. It may be a loss like what occurred on January 17, 1999--exactly eleven years from when they play Dallas (hmm, that gives me pause)--when they lost in overtime to the Falcons in the NFC championship. That was the best Vikings team of all time, 15-1 with Moss, CC, Robert Smith and a rejuvenated Randall Cunningham. A kicker who is literally perfect all regular and post-season misses an easy FG that would have punched the Vikes Super Bowl ticket and we lose, in no small part due to Denny Green's coaching idiocy, in overtime.
So yeah, I don't expect the Vikings to let me have any peace this year either.
