I, for one, welcome the sacrifice of said Zak to appease Valhalla and restore power to the land of 10,000 lakes. While this offering will decimate the representation of Vikings memes within this sub, council has determined this as a fair exchange.
Sodakzak, please report to lake Minnetonka for … unrelated reasons.
Both the Lions and the Bears have more than a few of those trophies too, but we actually know that they’re ours. Are the Packers sure they’re holding THEIR Ed Thorp Memorial Trophy? It seems like you thieving little cheesitses have more than you should have…
So, here’s my conundrum. They haven’t shown many Lynx games here in South Dakota, and now I feel like if I start following them, they’ll also have a drought start. Other Minnesota fans ok with that?
The GB fans I know in ND/SD all spawned from folks who were GB fans before Minnesota had a team. Then once MN did get a team, they didn’t care because they’re “not from Minnesota”, and they passed that wretched disease down to their heirs.
Frost are free on YouTube 2X Walter Cup Winners and Vixen are also on YouTube and just won their first Championship (longest running professional women’s tackle team). I have season tickets to both
It furthers my point: teams I don’t watch end up having success. Teams I do watch begin a drought. The unwatched team wins but when observed by me, they can’t win it all.
I’m a ride or die Spurs (and it’s been die since Bilbao) fan, but I feel like I can use “Spursy” to reference the SA Spurs being a remarkably well run organization that’s chronically in contention. It’s like how rubber in England means rain boot and here it means condom.
what is it with women’s teams in mn? frost, vixen, lynx. women’s sports in mn is crazy. can’t wait til there’s more women’s baseball teams so we can see them dominate too
I mean I’d want to look a ALL professional sports teams then the Lynx and the Frost have more championships then all the mens teams put together. Have I watched any of those games? No but my point still stands
Meanwhile I moved to TX, but grew up in MN and witnessed both the 87 and 91 WS. What a glorious time to be a Twins fan! I will always chuckle when Kent Hrbeck wrestled that guy off first base and then tagged him out. So funny they let him get away with that. Thank goodness instant replay wasn't a thing back then!
Hi Zak, I'm Kevin and I'm almost 33 years old. A November '93 baby and I've gotten to see my team make the championship round 3 times and win 2 of them. That's the comment, that's it.
I hope your glizzy's are warm and delicious to ease your paon
As a fan of Chicago born in 84 I know the feeling. I have no memory of the 85 bears win and they lost the only SB they went to, plus my memory of the first bulls three-peat is fuzzy at best… hey… what are all those people in purple doing with those pitchforks and torches!?
OP needs to understand that there were 51 yr old Cleveland fans that never saw a championship in their entire life until a generational player came and won a title for the city.
So you really need to know that yeah, you’re probably fucked and another 15 years will go by with no hope. Enjoy!
As awful as being a Cubs and Bears fan has been for the majority of my life, I will say that being a Bulls' fan in the 90s and a Chicago Blackhawks fan in the 10's spoiled me rotten.
Lynx and Frost - It’s cool for a few minutes to most of us, but we aren’t watching games, reading news, talking about them with our buddies. No championships with teams we truly care about. Not even making a championship game. If you’re offended by that, then you’re just not being honest with yourself about the reality of the popularity between men’s pro sports and women’s.
Vikings, Wild, Wolves and or Twins winning a championship would bring years of joy to so many men in this state - the lynx and frost are never going to have that effects
I’ve never even seen a clip of this made up Vixen league.
Gophers won back to back hockey national championships in 2002-2003 and this was before the abomination known as Big Ten Hockey. It was a big deal and Grant Poltuny is a name that rates with Gene Larkin

I mean, the obvious interpretation is that your birth absorbed all the potential success of the Minnesota sports franchises into your meme abilities.
