D*mn, another white, male, viking football fan just moved into the
house right behind us. The old gal that did live there, is now living in a nursing home, and just celebrated her 92nd birthday. She was a repub, and I'm kinda afraid to ask this guy if he's one too. Most of the viking fans in this Minnesota neighborhood ARE repubs. I'm a Packer fan and liberal...... guess I could go introduce my self with a cheese wedge and a Al Franken lawn sign. LOL :rofl: :patriot:

2. Hey, so happy to hear that.....
my whole neighborhood is white, viking fans AND republican. But it's great to hear there are Viking fans who are democrats. :) By the way, the Packers will kick their arse regardless :evilgrin:

Minnesota is still blue, and I know a lot of Viking fans who'd like to keep it that way!


Edited to add that this is my way of saying that politics and sports don't really have anything to do with each other. I also know some Packer fans who are Republicans.

3. This is very bad
my advice to you would be to MOVE IMMEDIATELY!Nothing worse than a Vikings fan,they are even worse than the dreaded Bear fan.

7. I said MOVE.
Vikings fans are notoriously bad neighbors.Everyone knows that,common knowledge.Also been known to lower property values as much as 70%.

8. NO.
I'm a Vikings fan, and what's common knowledge is that Packer fans are judgmental boors.

You can insult me, but don't even think about insulting my father!

9. They also have no sense of humor.
I'm picking on you in good fun,not to be hurt full,usually someone will question my sanity or an odd cheese reference.You really need to take a pill or something.It's not like I really hate you guys,it's a rivalry for gods sake,get it, we're rivals.We make fun of each other.That's what's fun about rivalry's.

10. **I** need to take a pill?
You might want to check on your own level of humor and top off the fluids.

13. take 2 pills then.
If you go through life taking everything so seriously you will surely end up with ulcers.There are enough real enemies without creating more in your own mind.Maybe stay away from all sports because you obviously can't take the kidding.Try chess maybe.

11. Most of my family are Vikings fans
Most of them are also white, a number of them are male, and all but one are democrats. My grandpa is a republican, I guess, but he doesn't like the current group in Washington.

BTW, Vikings fan and liberal here -- but I'm female. :P
