Title: Vikings Lose.
Post by: Red Dragon Thorn on October 25, 2009, 04:15:04 PM

I would like to start with a disclaimer: I am not a Vikings fan.
That being said - The Vikings got one put over them by the Ref's. The touchdown by Sidney Rice that was called back was huge, you simply can't make bad calls like that. Additionally on the ensuing run-back, both Favre and Loadholt were blocked in the back, but not called. The Vikings certainly sealed their fate with the interception, but the Ref's weren't helping at all.

My thoughts exactly. Can't blame it on Peterson though... what a beast! You see him truck that guy mid-field?

Yeah, that Vikes got Jobbed by the refs that game but that is part of the game.  occasionally, Refs make bad calls...Unless you ref in the SEC.  Then you can make three bad calls in a game be fore they jerk your credentials.  :o

LOL, of any of Favre's interceptions that one was probably the least his fault...

For being a GB fan, you could at least spell his name right, or at least the name of your team... ::)

Yeah, that int was a fumbled pass. Butterfingers should have held onto it better, or at least knocked it down if he couldnt get to it.

Well, when is Brett gonna pronounce his name right?   :D


I didn't get to see the game but heard it was a good one.  The Steelers are certainly living a charmed life right now, just like the Yankees.  If there is a conspiracy it doesn't originate from Goodell or Selig.  I say it's the manufacturers of Tums, Pepcid AC, et al.   :-\
