When should we get out the bags ...

In honor of New Orleans, at what point do Vikings fans don the paper bags?

When the Saints were horrible in years past they had a section of fans in the Super Dome that wore paper bags over their heads to hide the shame of a pathetic team.

Nowhere near yet.

Ummmm, we should never take out the paper bags. Even if we go 0-16. I love the Vikings and will always support them and let everyone know that I do to.

Sometimes being a good fan is to send the team a tongue-in-cheek message.

We won't do that, we will just fade away from showing up at the games......Metrodome empty.....TV blackouts.....Then when they finally make a move, we will show some enthusiasm because we love our team but we want results. With this talent we have on board we should be 11-5 minimum.......Any coach worth anything would have us at 10-6. Just look at the Chiefs. Do they have more talent than we do? I think not.

They had DECADES of losing seasons before they did that, we've had 2 games of ugliness. IMO, if you're not mean enough to own up to who you root for, then you shouldnt be a fan. You should be proud to root for a team, no matter if they suck or not. The paper bags are just disrespect.

Also, consider if we as fans don't show our disgust at our team's performance and demand excellence over blindly loving and cheering for our team (even when they are 0-16) we might wind up with a franchise like the Cubs. Lovable losers.
