We’re continuing a weekly feature where we fill space by bringing you the best and greatest links from around the interwebs in the last week. Some may have to do with Vikings football. Most probably won’t, though. And at the end, we’ll send you off with our song of the day. Hopefully, this will be a good tool to bring you down from the suicide watch since the big loss. Wait, we recap the game in some of these links? Eeeeee … maybe not.
Any tips, links, laughs, videos, suggestions, Twitter feeds, random off season tips, Vikings related or otherwise, that you want to see here send to [email protected] or leave a message in the comments. Totally awesome links after the jump …
Pro Football Talk: Ok, we’re going to kind of do these links in an order like we’re trying to get over a Vikings Championship loss (that did happen still, right?) or like we just walked in on our step dad banging your hot ass 19 year old girlfriend. /barf. Regardless, go ahead and start with PFT who provides a screen shot of what winning may have looked like for Vikings fans. DAMMIT!
ESPN NFC North Blog: Did that make you depressed again? Good, then also head over to our friend (actually, that’s a lie because he has no idea who we are here) Kevin Seifert’s blog at ESPN where he looks at just how thoroughly the Vikings kicked the Saints’ asses up and down the field. So now not only have the Vikings not won a Championship game in their last four (or is it five?) tries and no Super Bowls in four appearances, they also now hold the torch for being the most dominating team in a Championship game to not actually win the game. FUCK!
KSK: Ok, now that we got that anger all built up, let’s head over to KSK where resident internet Vikings fan Drew Magary goes Toxic Avenger on Peter King trying to make people feel better by softly rubbing Brett Favre’s foreskin under the tablecloth in a dimly lit restaurant. Just let us be angry, ok King, you fuck? Drew does a nice job at this.
Rand Ball: Trying to find some answers, Drew Magary also revives an older column that he used to do with Michael Rand over at the Star Tribune called “Melt Down” where the two chuckle monsters essentially go back and forth shoveling blame unto someone on the Vikings roster. Most often it’s well deserved, and frequently Rand gets to use his favorite word, redacted, in order to make Drew’s material publishable for the Trib. It kind of winds the loss down and just makes you melancholy enough to cut for attention, instead of suicide.
Viking Age: And finally we just get right down to it. Viking Age says what everyone was thinking throughout the entire year; go fuck yourself, Land Baron. While even the largest detractors and day dreaming assassin’s of Brett Favre (two thumbs? This guy!) aren’t retarded enough to deny Favre’s influence on this season, we were also genius enough to know that no one gave a flying pig fucker if he had a great regular season, the best of his ever in fact, unless he managed not to revert to form in the playoffs. Well you did, asshole, so go home.
Vikings Gab: And when all the bellyaching, screaming, and salty tears have dried up, Viking fans are left to wonder “what next”? Vikings Gab gets that boat sailing with an early look at the offseason priority list. Number one? KILLING TAHI! No, just kidding, but that was probably like 11 or something. Go check that list out.
Malt Madness: Of course, if none of this works there is also whisky. That’s right, let us collectively drink our sorrows away! Follow this link to go to a map of Scotland that will provide information on all of the local breweries. All of them, you say? I don’t know, I thought their main GDP export was faux beards. But I’m also still super upset about the Vikings game.
And we send you off with our song of the day!
