Anyone check out the Vikings fansite, yet? Apparently we haven't got a shot.

I'm starting to like the fact that we went to 0-4 in preseason. It took away all the super bowl hype about us. Now, we will start to be overlooked and underestimated.

Purplepride.org has to be, literally, the most queer name for a fansite I have ever heard. :laughing-

ooohhhh i can't wait for sept 11th (RIP) its going to be awesome

Re: Purplepride.org
 

I love this statement:

"Gibbs is [B]good,[/B] but Saunders & Williams are [B]brilliant[/B]. However, I do not expect much from the 'Skins"

p.s. Bless their hearts, they think they'll win.

Re: Purplepride.org
 

Is anyone else gonna join this site to talk smack?

Re: Purplepride.org
 

I'm still pissed at the Giants fans for ripping us on their website. When Minnesota can man up and put together a playoff team I might pay them some attention.

The Redskins have again amassed a roster of overpaid, underachievers. They will not make the playoffs this year. Brunell is too inconsistent, Portis is fragile, the WR's are crap (except for S Moss) & the defense is decent (S Taylor is a stud tho). The only thing that could turn them around is the coaching staff. Gibbs is good, but Saunders & Williams are brilliant. However, I do not expect much from the 'Skins
[/QUOTE]
How could he say Portis is fragile...it is unbelievable how stupid some people are. And he said out receivers are crap, while he's sitting there as a Vikings fan with their number one receiver, Troy Williamson. Yea, they have some good receivers. Our defense is decent? Our defense is amazing. What a douche. Gibbs is brilliant too, you dont win 3 superbowls by being "good"

let me join just to talk some trash on there

Re: Purplepride.org
 

I won't bother going to the site but, when was the last time we lost to the Vikes?

We need to win these two NFC games. Start fast. Rally late.

Well since you asked

Joe Gibbs vs. Vikings: 4-0 regular season; 3-0 playoffs

I took a straw poll vote and it has been decided that you, TAFKAS, have been given the honor of starting a thread on their forum informing them of Joe Gibbs achievements.

Awww. I'm too lazy. I'm going to flex my mod muscle and delegate the responsibility to you...and tell them if they have a problem with you you're sending Daseal over to kick their purple puppies

Why bother going over there to talk trash. Imo, it just gives Skins' fans a bad name.

yes by all means please inform these bonehead vikings fans of Joe Gibbs record. How many superbowls have they won? weren't they the orginal superbowl choke team? and didnt they have defensive linemen run the wrong way with the ball? Now I dont think i can control myself i think i need to jump in there and point these things out to them. This is going to be fun

Re: Purplepride.org
 

omg. i better stay away from there. They are a truly misinformed bunch. I stumbled upon a thread in which someone said portis is all we have. I quick to clear that up for them by mentioning santana moss. but me going to that site is just trouble. but anyway..had a little fun with it for a few minutes.

Re: Purplepride.org
 

yeah i'm on the site as GonnaBeatYouOn911

Re: Purplepride.org
 

gotta love a team thats known being the bone head team of super bowls, at least buffalo was just outplayed ever year....what about the highlight of the the viking fumble recovery ran in the wrong direction

Re: Purplepride.org
 

There's no way these guys will come into our house on 9/11 and walk out with a W. No freaking way.

He probably means Portis is fragile now with the shoulder thing. Truth is, Portis is the least of our worries. Shawn Springs on the other hand ...

Wow Portis gets hurt once and he is fragile? Portis freaking ran for over 1000 yards last year, and those were all hard earned up the middle. Do not give me that shit that Portis is fragile, I mean maybe Shaun Alexander is, but not Portis, he runs up the middle for 1400+ yards, and that means he is weak? Yeah ok.

Are you more or less fragile with a shoulder injury than you were before?

The fact that a running back ran for over 1400 yards LAST year has nothing to do with how weak or strong he is THIS year after a sublexed shoulder injury.

Re: Purplepride.org
 

Ahh the unerring optimism of fans before the regular season.

Vikings fans are guaranteeing an easy win, 49ers fans think Nolan is the second coming of Bill Walsh, Packers fans have faith in the final season of Brett Favre, Redskins fans know that the preseason means nothing...

More or less is different than saying fragile. Fragile is implying that Portis is weak and gets injuried frequently, or is prone to it. One shoulder injury does not really do that. Like I said before, one injury that is not serve, does not merit a fragile "title". So I guess using this as our basis for reasoning Carson Palmer is very, very, very, very fragile, because he torn his muscles? I doubt any sane person would say he is fragile in the way these people at gaypride are talking about. They are basically saying he is weak after a shoulder sublux, and that is bullshit.

Actually in this case it does. Portis played through a shitload of injury last year, and that is why I mentioned his yards were tough up the middle. That has plenty to do with showing he is not weak. Because usually when people make predictions or statements, they use the past to verify their claims. Portis's past shows he is a tough runner that plays hurt, and goes for hard earned yards. That is why I think he is not fragile, along with the fact the injury really isn't that bad compared to other injuries(ie. Palmer).

Re: Purplepride.org
 

Portis is a beast but someone tell what does minnesota have? somebody tell me who they claim to be their "franchise player"? i cant think to save my life who that would be...no moss no culpepper? let me guess...fred smoot...or better yet brad johnson?

Re: Purplepride.org
 

Not sure if i should put this in this thread but im curious, Ok the Steelers went 0-4 in preseason and yet they are still favorites to win the SuperBowl this year, [url=http://nfl.com/teams/trainingcamp/PIT]NFL.com - Pittsburgh Steelers Training Camp[/url] , and the Redskins also finished 0-4 in preseason and with Coach Gibbs , who has been 0-4 in preseason and won the Superbowl, people say the Redskins are nothing will not even make the playoffs what kind of shit is this. The Steelers' preseason record means nothing where the Redskins' Preseason means that they have fallen out of contention. I just don't get it..

Not to be too annoying, but he ran for over 1,500 yards last season.

Re: Purplepride.org
 

[quote=SKINSnCANES;211365]dont forget we have the longest active winning streak on opening day...we come out the doors firing..[/quote]

Honestly, that concerns me a bit because all history would suggest we would win. Gibbs being undefeated against the Vikes. Our winning streak at home. Urgh.

Re: Purplepride.org
 

I threw in my two cents on that website. Curious to see what the responses will be.

Re: Purplepride.org
 

On a side note, JESUS H., look at this from TSN.

[url=http://www.sportingnews.com/yourturn/viewtopic.php?t=121735]SportingNews.com - NFL - Week 1 Matchup: Vikings vs. Redskins[/url]

I know it's TSN, but look where they gave the advantages. That's HILARIOUS.

Re: Purplepride.org
 

[QUOTE=Sheriff Gonna Getcha;211425]Not to be too annoying, but he ran for over 1,500 yards last season.[/QUOTE]

Actually, I was responding to a comment from hooskins, who originally made the statement about Portis going over 1400 yards.

Incidentally, isn't 1500 yards "over 1400 yards" ??

Re: Purplepride.org
 

malcolm, how does tsn give the vikings so many advantages but yet pick the skins to win? and the vikings have better running backs then the skins? please. i consider myself pretty knowledgeable about football, and cant name one of their running backs

Re: Purplepride.org
 

I was more appalled by COACHES! I might give them the o-line and d-line, but the rest of that is crap.

Re: Purplepride.org
 

One of my favorite posts from a purpleprider:

"I want it to be a close game so we can fly low under the radar, than when we face the Panthers, BAM!!! Blow up and take it from them in a huge way. 2-0 start here we come."

hahaha...riiiiight, you guys will beat the skins, and then the panthers. let me know when you come back down to earth.

Re: Purplepride.org
 

Just like they blew up against juggernauts like the Lions and Packers last year?

Re: Purplepride.org
 

Their only big addition was Hutchinson, and as we all know, one player does not a Super Bowl team make.
