What a great season:

I mean, we finished in last... but if you were going to have a 6-10 season, wouldn't you want one as crazy as this one?

-We started the season as Super Bowl contenders... and never ever looked remotely close to ever accomplishing that. So that sucked. But still...

-Brett Favre had the worst season of his career... got embroiled in some sleazy controversy... got knocked out a couple times... was finally broken down enough to miss a game... tried to make a GLORIOUS RETURN on Monday night only to get knocked out again. And now he's retired. I mean... if you hate Brett Favre, that's the best season right there. Sure, it sucks that it happened to my favorite team, but still.

-Randy Moss had a four game cameo. Remember that? It was awesome. I recommend all Minnesota coaches that I'd like to see fired bring in former Minnesota superstars only to unceremoniously dump them four games later.

-Brad Childress is gone, which is great. I would have let him go after the game in which we won against Arizona, though... right off the heels of the Moss fiasco, it just felt right. Plus it would have been a sweeter f*** you to do it to him after a win. (For the record... I am fine with Frazier as our coach. I don't know how great he is with the X's and O's... but he seems like the type of guy you'd like to have as a boss. Plus he managed to win reasonably OK in the midst of the weirdest few weeks the team has ever had. My only problem with him is that he looks sort of dopey in official team photos... he looks OK and efficiently authoritative on the sidelines, but the team photos of him I've seen make him out to be a dork... that's the reason I was never sold on Childress and his sex offender stache, and the reason why I'm not sold on new Gophers coach Jerry "Manager at Arby's" Kill... you need to look the part, you know?)

-The roof collapsed! What the hell! I mean, the fact that we didn't have home field advantage against the Giants effectively killed our season right there... and the fact that this will probably be used as a reason why the Vikings will move to LA in a couple of years kind of sucks... but in the meantime, this could only have happened during this season. Which makes it all the more awesome.

-We won a game on a Tuesday night (which was stupidly postponed) against a playoff team on the road with a 3rd string rookie QB that we drafted as a WR. And that was the one on field highlight that involved us actually doing well.

So yeah, we sucked. That said, if we had only won one more game... and we played in the NFC West, we'd be rolling towards the playoffs right about now.

So that's something to hang your hat on.
