We Knew It All the Time – Vikings Crush Dallas
60,000 purple clad and lubricated Viking fans filed into the Metrodome late this morning wanting to believe that their beloved warriors could pull off a victory against the hated Cowboys. You could tell, though, by their collective posture that they were putting on an act.
Afterall, we had lost 3 out of our last 5 regular season games after that marvelous 10-1 start and even the whupping we gave the New York Football Giants in the finale came against a team who had quit weeks before. No, it was fun while it lasted but maybe we can get Favre back for one more year and REALLY make a run at the Super Bowl.
Three hours later a very happy and stumbling crowd exited the Dome content in the realization that their undying faith had been rewarded with a decisive defeat of the hapless Cowboys and their thumb-sucking quarterback, Tony Romo.
The Euphoria will last until about Thursday and then the Collective Feeling of Impending Doom will once again descend upon Viking Land.
