Is this the year that the Vikings are better than the Packers?

Maybe next year?

That is the Vikings mantra, “There’s always next year.”

Maybe just maybe it will be one of these years. I’m not holding my breath.

you know it’s bad when your team’s “there’s always next year” becomes “maybe one of these years”

I can’t wait for the Packers to slip back to the mediocracy that they had back in the day when I was a kid.

Nope, too much shit to do at home, plus, Miami is a 12-hour drive from my house. I live up in the northwest panhandle.

Are you going?

The panhandle is my favorite handle.

Whatcha driving – rollerblades?

Or too many snowbirds crawling along at 20mph?

Same here, short drives to New Orleans, Atlanta or Jacksonville (4-5 hours). Tampa and Nashville are 6-7 hours away.

My kids think I drive too slow also, even though I typically drive about 5 mph over.

that’s why their insurance is more expensive

I don’t pay their insurance any more, so I’ve got that going for me.

Yeah, it’s more like a 10-hour drive (650 miles), but, add in the wife’s bathroom breaks, gas stops, etc, you are getting close to 12 hours.

And yes, the snowbirds do slow you down…
