Would you like to see the Vikings in the Super Bowl because you have never seen them there?  Even though they loose?

OR 

Hell no!  I have seen them there and the next time they go, I want to win.  Or I don’t want to go.

*** I realize once you make the playoffs, anything can happen so you have to keep trying.  But, could you stand another SB loss. Other teams have lost more than multiple times but they at least have won a SB.  Buffalo and the Vikes are the only two teams to have lost four times with no wins and it kind of looks like Buffalo could win the next time they get there.

Second.  If the Vikes did make it and lost.  Which would be more painful, a close game or a blow out?

I've seen them play in 4 Super Bowls. Although I really doubt they go this year, I say if they get there great. You never know what can happen in one game, anything is possible if you get there.

I watched 4 losses.  A 5th would probably kill me.  But I'd watch, despite the grave danger.

I used to say that if we went to the SB again, i wanted to have all the best tools in the tool box.

I now realize that the best team doesn’t always win.  There is so much that goes into the win (and even the season) such as schemes, injuries, luck, the refs, etc, etc.

Atlanta fans must have been sick after New England came from behind to win.  I don’t know what i would have done if that had been the Vikings loosing.

seen us lose three of the four, still.....Every week we are alive...is a Good week.

so...

NFCC would be great, a Lombardi Id have a baby

for me a close game is harder than a blow out

In my mind I hear Maxwell Smart “Missed it by that much”

Long as it’s not a missed field goal!  Right?  :)

Ill take the other side. Sign me up for playoff success. Even if we lose it would still be fun as hell.

I've watched all four SB losses.  Even lost a $20 bet with a fellow viking fan after the last SB.  He said we would never make the super bowl in the next 25 years...  Easy, sure bet I thought!  LOL!  I want us to go again, would watch the game alone.  Would love a win, any loss would be tough but not unexpected.

I also watched all 4 losses  but years ago I changed my goal of winning a SB to just getting there. I've noticed that the NFC Champion gets a very nice trophy and we need to get there before the Lions because every other team in the NFC has been there since our last appearance except for the Lions.

Ouch.  Stop hurting me.

Make it, fan since 87.  Have seen 5 NFCCG debacles and whole bunch of teams that were 1 win from a potential deep run.

Make it and let's see what happens.

I'm with AGR. I see it as a quality of life thing. I love being the fan of one football team. It makes Sundays so much fun. It makes the draft so much fun. I see the Super Bowl as just icing on the cake. I'm not one of those "one before I die" people. Win or lose, playing in a Super Bowl would be fun. If we win, great, even more fun. Sure would exorcise a lot of demons. But if we don't, I'm over it in a week and it's on to the draft and next season.

Ive seen 3 of the 4 SB losses...

I'd be happy with 1 Lombardi before they put me in the ground.
