Pistons, Tigers, Red Wings. I'd take your city over mine when it comes to sports in a heartbeat.

The Vikings last big win would probably have been in the ninth or tenth century.
That beats the Cubs

Katrina was in 2005. How did that effect things in 2009?

It's not our fault you let the North Stars go. One of your teams have won a championship- just not when they were there anymore.
Still- trying to feel so bad about SB losses- again, I don't even know what it feels like to even be there.

If you'll notice you have to be pretty old to have seen a Vikings Super Bowl loss. They progressed from losing Super Bowls to losing the game to get into a Super Bowl. I supported the North Stars with ticket money the last two years they were here it wasn't my fault they left.

That's a good point. What did they lose, like 4 out of the 1st 8 Superbowls or something like that? I don't ever remember them playing in one.

Super Bowl, 4, 8, 9, and 11 they lost. I was old enough to see the last 3.

They were dam good during the 70s, winning their division something like 11 out of 12 years during that time. They won a lot of playoff games too, just couldn't win the big one. Vikings fans from North Dakota think Hakstol on a big stage.

Some playoff games hurt less than others if I expected the result. All the games I listed they had a legit fighting chance before the first snap. I didn't even include the NFCCG loss to PHI.

I know that one hurt being that close to being the first "home" team in a super bowl

Feel good story for the fans of N.O. at the expense of the Vikings who got completely screwed on so many calls that game.
And before Handy freaks out here yes the Vikings effed themselves in that game with T.O.s (5?) and the stupid 12 men in the huddle penalty that cost them a chance at a GWFG.

If you're my age (55) you will forever think of the Vikings as a temporarily embarrassed powerhouse.
The way NFL teams are when you are age 9-11 locks into your brain as a baseline.
"Naturally" excellent: Miami, Pittsburgh, Oakland, Dallas, Minnesota, Washington, Los Angeles
"Naturally" terrible: New England, Atlanta, New Orleans, Detroit, Chicago, both New York teams
Likewise, in MLB:
"Naturally" excellent: Cincinnati, Los Angeles, Pittsburgh, Oakland, Baltimore
"Naturally" terrible: the Yankees, Cleveland, Montreal, both Chicago teams

I hate to bring this up, as I loath the yankees, but they did win a WS in '77 and '78. Thankfully a year after getting swept by my Reds in '76. But I don't think I would put them on the terrible list. And if your age limit moves up just a little, you can add the short span of the Mets of being excellent.
Your NFL list jives with my memory quite well.
For the NHL- just have the Canadians, and that would pretty much be enough (6/10). with the broad street bullies and Bruins put in a place and show.

Those Cincinatti MLB Clubs when I was a kid were monsters. I find it weird that you list the Yankees as terrible cause they were good too when I was young. Reggie Jackson, Willie Randolph, Catfish Hunter, etc.

That was just after. For me the formative years are 71-73, when Catfish and Reggie are A's. The Yankees finished 4th every year. I guess they weren't awful, but somehow I remember guys like Celerino Sanchez and Horace Clark... woof.
