hmmmm, I am supposed to hate the Vikings because they unintentionally designed a Stadium that may kill some birds?

And, they’re not considering the design change at all ?

Sorry, I don’t get the hatred

Its just kindof a joke around here to hate the Vikings
for various reasons. All the playoff losses in the 70’s
plus there was a year where we dealt with Viking flamers
or somethin like that. I forget.

I would think they could just hang a bunch of dead birds
from ropes in front of the glass. That should solve the problem.
They could paint’em purple maybe.

An old board, years and years ago, completely unmoderated. It was one of those linked boards where other teams fans posted at the site too…so fans of all 32 teams were at the site and each team had their own board. Rivals. That was what the site was called.

It was 99. And just before the playoff game, dozens upon dozens of Vikings fans descended on our board to flame us. They were all insistent that the Vikings were far superior and the Rams had not played anybody. That was the big argument. Rams were a mirage…Rams had not played anybody.

It covered the board and went on day and night. It was like a little plague of viking fan locusts.

Anyway years later I am watching a tape of the 99 Rams playoff game. You know, Vikes game…the 3rd quarter massacre. And as the game winds down, the camera pans to the crowd. There’s a Rams fan holding up a sign and it said WE STILL HAVEN’T PLAYED ANYBODY.
