An open request to those with TiVo.

I have been informed, that apparently I dance around like a tool.

That is because at roughly 2:55 PM CST, I was filmed for a little bit during the game. And since I believe humiliation is best when shared publicly with others, if someone TiVo'ed the game and did not delete it yet (My lack of TiVoing the game shames me) and can find a way to post the footage. I'd be deeply embarassed. Then appreciative.

And that's me in the Russian hat.

I say vote for "The Four Norsemen", but that's me.

Just had to share

I'm not too sure how many people here read Bill Simmons' column on ESPN, but I do. He's funny, and he normally seems like he has his head on straight. He's a much bigger Basketball guy than a Football guy, but he still cranks out columns giving the gambling lines on teams during the football season. For those of you who don't read him, here's what he had to say about the Pack vs Bucs game.

Packers (-9.5) over BUCS
Mayday! Mayday! The Josh Freeman 2009 White Flag has been thrown. By the way, Aaron Rodgers is this year's Great Game Against A Bad Team MVP. His stats have no correlation with his actual effectiveness. Even Al Bundy didn't hold his balls this long.

That last line killed me. If you're interested in more of his columns, I recommend looking up the Vengeance Scale. It should be required reading for just about everyone.

Finally, Go! Pack! Go!

...

What? I picked them in my survivor pool this week. Don't look at me like that.

Just a quick reminder

Yes, it's rivalry week, and yes, the Vikings do not like the Packers and the same thing goes for most of their fans and vice versa. That said, lemme lay down a few rules of conduct since we've already got trolls making insulting posts on the DN.

1) Be Excellent to Each Other. And if you can't do that, at least be tolerant. That means no Vi-Queens and no Fudge Packers. Saying these things does not make you funny, it does not show your team is better, and it is certainly not original. Saying these things makes the conversation a waste of good people's time.

2) Alt-trolling makes you look like a jackass. Oddly enough, whenever you create a new screen name for the sole purpose of trolling, your IP address does not change. And, what a surprise, those things can be cross-referenced to your main account! Isn't technology awesome!

3) Keep it clean. Keep the foul language down, along with the constant use of capital letters and punctuation. Phrases like:

FARVE IS A TRAITOR AND WE WILL NEVER SUPPORT HIM AGAIN!!!!11!!!!!

and

THE PACKERS O-LINE SUCKS!!!!!!!111!!!!!

Can be said just as easily in lower case. And anything past one exclamation point is superfluous.

By following these simple rules, you'll make it so your fellow fans aren't embarrassed in your presence, and your admins won't want to rage quit their jobs. Please do your part in making sure this week goes as smoothly as possible.

Also,

Go Vikes!

"Expert" picks the Ravens vs Vikings game

I normally don't give the "experts" the time of day, But I thought that this one would be worth sharing

Carl of Adult Swim's Aqua Teen Hunger Force presents his Stone Cold Lock of the Century of the Week! And while I think he picks the wrong team, I get a kick out of his comments about Jared Allen. The bit about Ray Lewis is pretty good too. Hope you enjoy it!

Edit: Apparently, only you tube videos can be embedded. Awesome. Here's the link.

The trash talking has begun

Robert Rence — Tue, 08 Sep 2009 20:26:27 -0000

Apparently a radio host in Cleveland thought it would get him some page views to bash on the Vikes with a video on YouTube. Which is more like bashing on the history of the Vikings, saying that Favre is old, and saying that the state of Minnesota sucks. I will not link to it, because, frankly, I see better thought arguments put out on 4-chan.

Chris Baker from KTLK responded with the following YouTube video. It also rips on the history of the Browns, but at least it's funny.

Seifert talks with the D-line about Marinelli

Robert Rence — Tue, 25 Aug 2009 15:53:23 -0000

I know we've all had our fun making fun of him. And the Lions. And him again with the stupid pictures. But I figured folks over here would be interested on reading what answers Seifert got when he talked with the players about the coaching changes he's made. You can find the article right here. Enjoy!

Grrr... One friggin word short.

UPDATE from ChiFan13: Got rid of his link and had to add some words.
