Vikings vs. Texans (MUST READ RULES BEFORE VOTING!)

In order to calm down Tom and myself bickering about politics, we figured we'd actually bicker about something that matters similar to what we did before with the Cowboys: http://www.mitsustyle.com/forums/showthread.php?t=25363

Minnesota Vikings vs. Houston Texans - December 23rd, 2012

MitsuStyle Pay-Ban Wager!

Anyone who votes MUST commit $5 to the pay-ban fund if their team loses (backing out after losing will result in a month real ban; no exceptions). The funds must be send within 12 hours of the game ending otherwise you'll be considered as backing out (see above). The $5 must include yourself but can also include others that also picked the losing team; how you ban with the $5 is up to you as long as the above rules are followed. The losers may stack bans on top of each other with no grace periods between each ban.

Since I'm a mod and pay-banning me costs more I'll commit $10 rather than the normal $5.

Payments are to be sent to chris@snowsecurity.com along with how you'd like the $5 divided up.

*at least 4 people must participate for this to become official*

Vikings don't play the Dallas Cowboys this year so instead we decided to use the Houston Texans.

Re: Vikings vs. Texans (MUST READ RULES BEFORE VOTING!)

I agree fantasy football next yr. I'm game!

I'd like to support my local team but everytime I see something good out of them. It seems like I'm chewing on my foot the next week. I lost faith over a decade ago when Gary Anderson missed his first field goal all year. Resulting in a loss to the falcons in the playoffs.

Re: Vikings vs. Texans (MUST READ RULES BEFORE VOTING!)

I still bleed purple all the way and would never ever root against my fav team, but this one might be a little much for the vikes to handle. As much of a fan as I am, I am still a realist.

I'll take the Texans and I honestly hope I am wrong. If it was in the dome I might have been a little more inclined to go for the upset bid, but JJ Watt, Barwin, Joseph, and company are tough at reliant.

to be a true vikings fan you cant be a realist they dont go hand in hand. Hence why when we were 2-7 last year i was talking to my brother, saying "well if x loses, and we win the rest of our games, and this happens etc". Vikings, super bowl this year.

Vikings are very unpredictable...but houston...at Home...tall order.

But hey, if ponder can pass for more than 50 yards we have a chance.

He is pretty good at throwing the deep ball to the other team.

Go with Joe.

It might not go that great, but I doubt it'll go much worse.
