Watch the media turn on ya, now...

I'm not ripping on you guys in the least...most of you that know me know my general distrust, if not hate, of most of the media. They're all whores that jump on whatever bandwagon appears to get them the best story.

But, I warned you when you were media darlings in the offseason that they will turn on you in a heartbeat, and watch it happen. The same guys picking you to win the Super Bowl (literally, two weeks ago), will now be writing some pretty horrible stuff about Culpepper, et. al.

You can't trust em.

Thank you for that well thought out post "CAPTAIN OBVIOUS" But as Minnesotans we are all to familar with the media backlash and backstabbing. I would like to point out the fact our Twins in baseball where picked to win the world series this year and you cant find anything positive about them on TV now, not to mention The Viking where picked to win the Superbowl and now all we hear is how without Moss we are nothing. Media runs with whatever is popular pure and simple everybody knows that.

everytime the media picks us as the favorites, i begin to get nervous, because minnesota just has a special knack of, even if they have the most talented team(i'm not saying they do this year) but to blow it. i think Del Rio said it best in the chat room, saying to be a vikings fan you have to love to have your heart ripped out and stepped on(along those lines). screw the media i'm not going to watch ESPN at all this week!

The 'best thing we had going for us' just threw his 8th pick through two weeks.

That puts him on pace for an NFL record. Not the one he was on pace for last year, Mr. Angelis.

I already have. Me, my pup and a man named "Jack" are locked up in my room right now. Don't think we are coming out.

If you'd like to trade him to the Packers, we'd take him. You can have Craig Nall in return. He doesn't throw interceptions at all.
