Ouch

The Packers did their utmost to join the other two two teams which lost wild card games at home, and succeeded in dropping a winnable game to the hated Vikings. What an awful game by Favre. He's a great quarterback, but as in the game at Lambeau two seasons ago which the Pack lost to the Falcons, he can be as erratic as something that's incredibly erratic. I'd say, "Good luck, Vikings!" but I sure wouldn't mean it.

UPDATE: Almost as soon as I posted this, I regretted the sore-loser tone. To compound that, Vikings talk radio - talk radio! - was actually rather sweet, just Vikes fans saying (for once), "We won one! We really, really won one!" So I'm changing my attitude: I hope the Vikings tear the Eagles apart and even win the NFC championship. Not even I can say their fans don't deserve it. Now, the Super Bowl's another matter...

I almost called to gloat ... but my heart wouldn't really have been in it. I can't claim that we did anything LIKE earning this playoff slot, but then neither did the Packers; frankly, the whole NFC North shoulda been disqualified on principle. But we did outplay you fair and square today, you gotta admit. And since we're going to lose to the Eagles in just seven days, don't grudge us this one week of feeling like we can actually play the game!
