One Franchise That Can Relate to the Vikings

The Washington Capitals.

Talk about a jinxed franchise. They are 2-6 at HOME in game 7s. And this year, they padded that stat in the first round of the playoffs after having the best record in the entire league.

The franchise has been around since the early 70s, if my memory is correct, and they've never won a game in the Stanley Cup Finals. That's some serious futility.

They don't know 1/5th of what the Vikings have been through, but I will agree that they could be jinxed as well. There is probably one in each league. Cubs, Vikings, Capitals, Caviliers?

There's also the Buffalo Bills! And we can hope that there will ALWAYS be the Buffalo Bills...until the Vikings win it all. :)

The Bills are the Vikings of the AFC.
