VikeManDan Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 Glass half-full we now can't lose the Superbowl in our own stadium. We would've never lived that down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brady’s mother grew up in Minnesota and Brady spent time on his grandparents’ farm when he was growing up. During a Monday morning appearance on WEEI, Brady reminisced about his grandparents, who have both died, and said he’s looking forward to playing in front of other family members. Brady: “Every year we would go back in the summer and spend weeks and we’d go fishing in the summer and ice fishing in the winter. I milked he cows with my grandpa and just kind of tended the farm. It was a great experience for me born in California, but I have always felt a connection to Minnesota. It will be fun because my uncles still live there, my cousins. We were just back there last year when my grandpa passed away. It’s a great place. It’s really special to go back there. The last time we played Minnesota I had a lot of people come — a lot of family and extended family. There will be a lot of great support there in Minnesota, too.” http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2018/01/22/tom-brady-its-really-special-to-play-super-bowl-in-minnesota/ see? now you have to support him and the Pats. I believe Tom’s Family is from Long Prairie, MN. I’ve spent time fishing there as well. I currently live approximately 1 hour North East in the Brainerd Lakes area; aka God’s country Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gopherwrestler Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 Chris Stapleton is joining JT for the halftime show. First halftime show I may actually watch since I was a child. They were pretty good together last time they were on stage. Big fan of Chris. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It isn't their faults they pounded the Vikings. In defense of my fellow Vikings fans reactions, there seem to be a lot more Eagles fans than fans of other (non Packers) teams that are despicable. I am sorry you have to have them associated with you through the team you root for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TENINCH Posted January 27, 2018 Share Posted January 27, 2018 Huge Tom Brady fan. Don't want an organization that hasn't won a Superbowl to win one before the Vikings. You've got some awful awful fans. Brady's family is from Minnesota and I've always disliked Chris Long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TENINCH Posted January 27, 2018 Share Posted January 27, 2018 Also fans treated in particular, Pat Eiflein's mom, Adam Theilens wife, and Case Keenums wife like crap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TENINCH Posted January 27, 2018 Share Posted January 27, 2018 Then your fans have the nerve to call us soft. I prefer the term civilized. Somebody throws a beer at head, puts a finger in my face, or throws batteries at women and children while the rest of Eagle nation watches they dont deserve an ounce of respect. They're upset over decorating a fictional character. If they had come to Minnesota and did that to the Charlie Brown statues or Paul Bunyun statues nobody would have cared. They would have said enjoy yourself and have fun in Minnesota. Also it wasnt a few fans. It was hundreds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
