Well, there is always next year. Tough loss for the Purple People Eaters, but at least the Vikings won the NFC North. I thought they would go deeper into the playoffs, but it seems like any team can beat any other team on any given Sunday. A lot of parity this year.

Always have a tough time getting over the last loss of the season. But this isn’t as tough as the Packers loss in last year’s NFC Championship. I was in a funk for several days after that loss.

By the way, in case your wondering why I’m a Vikings and Packers fan? I know. I know. How can you like two arch rivals? Well, I was born in Minneapolis and lived in Wisconsin when I was kid. Love both teams. It’s who I am. Half purple. Half cheese.
