JHitTheB ! Come on in here, Packer Backer!

Love the way you've been chiming in lately! Good stuff!

Maybe introduce yourself? How long have you been a Packers fan? Favorite players? Favorite rivalry? All that good stuff?

Well, I'm JHitTheB - pot head extraordinaire lol

Football ADDICT. Played pop warner through college and then semi pro in the IFL back in 2005-08 for the Burlington Blue Devils (now the Southern Lakes Blue Devils)

All time favs? Barry and Dione. You can throw Jerry, Brian Dawkins and of course LeRoy Butler on that list too. Dawkins was the reason I played FS. I just loved the way him and John Lynch laid the big hits.

Favorite rivalry - hands down the Bears. I was at the opener last year for that epic 1 legged comeback :)

Been a fan since I can remember. Packers football is just part of the family. First QB I remember watching play for us was Majkowski - so yes I admit I've been spoiled being able to watch back to back HoF QBs and being just a hair too young to have witnessed the teams of the 80s (born in 83).

I have actually been a creeper of Vikings/Bears/Lions boards for a long time now. Have to keep tabs on the enemy of course. Decided what the hell - make an account and talk some sh*t. This site is cool though. I haven't come across anybody really toxic yet and people seem to know their stuff as far as football goes.

We love football addicts! Also, with you playing, I think you'll be able to offer another perspective. We love that!

lol, literally. *lol*

I was at the hotel in Minneapolis after watching our season opener. I screamed at the TV a lot that night. Maybe punched a few pillows.

Welcome to Purple Pain, Will !

Thank you to all. Long time Vikings fan and Minnesota resident. Grew up going to Vikings games at Met Stadium - some in the 60s as a child and many in the 70s. I vaguely remember the corn fields next to the parking lot at the Met, and vividly remember being cold on the bleachers in December! Lived elsewhere in the 80s.

Who was/is your favorite player(s)? Carl Eller, John Randle, Adam Thielen.

What is your favorite Vikings Memory? There are many good ones and many disappointments as everyone knows. One of the best is the MNF game in 98 when Moss destroyed the Packers. Or when Anthony Carter outplayed Jerry Rice in the playoffs and the Vikes upset San Fran. Diggs' catch and run in the Minnesota Miracle.

What other sports/teams do you enjoy? I love to play hockey and hate to watch it. I was a North Stars fan, but the Wild don't have my attention. One of my daughters loves the TWolves, so I'll watch with her.

What is your favorite movie?

Braveheart

Looking forward, I will always be a Vikings fan. And in September, hopes are high. Skol!
