Who is ging to win the battle tonight: Minnesota Vikings or the Green Bay Packers?

It doesn't seem fair a whole state against one lousy town.

this one will go to Title Town up in the frozen tundra on the hallowed grounds of Lambeau Field (the Old Trafford/San Siro of American football):

Packers 30
Vikings 20

It's supposed to snow in Green Bay tonight.

I'm going to go out on a limb and call this one of the great "who cares" games of the season.

I can't say which, because Favre totally blows now, and Culpepper and friends aren't much better.

Actually Favre is not that bad. He has had some bad games this year, but surrounding cast is poor.
Culpepper in out for the year; and Brad Johnson has been filling in.

His surrounding cast is poor, yeah, but he makes a lot of totally unforgivable, dumbass mistakes. And most of his interceptions are the result of really bad throws.

Not as many as Culpepper, who was having a awful year until he tore his knee up.

Farve is kicking ass with a bunch of noname never played rookie talent and an O-line decimated by injury and free agency. And now he's got a 5th string, Horatio Alger running back, and that's all he needs to put up points in a formal divisional leader's home court? Umm yeah, maybe winning two superbowls in a row sucks too, you ain't nothin' till you threepeat, right? Also, Dante is done, and the Vikings got it done on special teams and D to kick a former divisional leader back to the middle of the pack.

But yeah, aside from the near epic rivalry of the teams, and the legend that is Brett Farve I can't see any reason to watch MNF and see two teams with nothing to lose and something to prove battle it out. Getting one's football analysis from Rush Limbaugh is something I would never recommend.

True, true. Randy Moss made Culpepper.

GB won one superbowl and lost the other.

Let's not forget along with Randy, he lost an excellent O-line and running game. With Randy, they'd be Oakland. No better, and Oakland seems to have found a running game.

Green Bay by a mile. It's in Lambeau, Minn. is a dome team. It's cold, Favre rocks in cold weather, only losing like ten games. It's suppossed to snow. Favre DOESN'T lose in snow. It's at Lambeau, cheeseheads hate vikings. It's in Lambeau...screw the rest, it's at Lambeau!!!!!!!<--Football Mecca for ALL fans.

Plus, they've got Gado, damn that guy can run! Just like Ahman Green, but no fumbles. The got Donald Driver, he rocks (and his cousin is in my english class, no kidding). And let's not forget BUBBA!!!!!!!!!!!!! Bubba Franks, my man bubba! MMMhhhmmm, damn he's a great tight end.

On defense, they've got #94 KGB. <--name says it all. He sits and spies, and then BAM! bye, bye Culpepper, who sucks this year without Moss. And let's not forget big 'ole Gilbert Brown! He is one FAT mutha! But he gets his work done.

Listen, Green Bay can win, they've nearly won EVERY game. The problem is they don't get the big plays when they need them, or the other team does, or the refs screw up, or they make a mistake (shoot themselves in the foot). However, a cold, snowy Lambeau Field mixed against a team that makes just as many, if not more, mistakes, they're a great pick. Cold and snowy Lambeau Field is a visitor's nightmare.

Look for: Favre to Driver, and Favre to Franks at least once.
-Gado up the middle at least once as well.

Don't be surprised if: KGB lays the HURT on Cully.

Green Bay: 35
Minnesota: 14

(F-A-V-R-E is pronounced F-A-R-V-E. Don't ask why, it just is. Also, yes. I am a HUGE Packers fan. I've never seen a game at LF, but I've seen it and it is impressive. One last thing: R.I.P. Reggie White #92. He was a helluva player, and loved playing at LF with Favre. We miss you!!!!)

GB won one superbowl and lost the other.

Don't forget, they won the FIRST AND SECOND superbowls under Lombardi. And let's not forget the dreaded ICE BOWL!!!!

So, they've won three total superbowls, Ice Bowl was a conference championship.
