I'm a lifelong Vikes fan and have been reading here and a couple other places for years now. I recently registered so I could put Jordy on ignore, then decided i may as well spend some time spouting my opinion as well. All fun and games to me though.
'Nunin' was the name of a Norse raven and means memory.
SKOL!

Aww chit...I remembered Huginn too, he was 'thought' but my memory failed me on Muninn. I suppose that's ironic lolOhjay wrote: Welcome to one of the best Vikings messageboards on the internet!
I think you'll like it here, even with Jordy around
Just a small FYI, but the raven was actually called Muninn(and it was always together with the raven Huginn).

Yes here where i live it's the morning (8.51am) i'm from Paris, France so as you can see, we are all around the world and it's great !
Before considering myself as a Vikings fan, i watched a lot of games and it was kind of hard for me to find "my team" at first i enjoyed the Panthers because of Cam...then the Seahawks because of their hot defense.
Later, i stopped watching football for a moment, and i was a big show tv addict and one of my favorite is Vikings...this is the main reason i became a Vikings fan maybe the reason can be weird haha but here i am !
Plus i always been a fan of AD so it's seem logical to me.
So i am a new fan, i started watching the team at the beginning of the last season (what a disapointment to pass from 5-0 to 8-8, my first one haha
I can't wait to exchange with all of you guys, i planned to watch the Vikings game in London against the Browns next year so maybe we'll meet there.
Hey man, thanks for your welcome !Cliff wrote:
I actually became a Vikings fan because when I was young when I played football video games it's the team I picked. As I got older and enjoyed sports more they stuck. So I understand becoming a fan in a ... nontraditional way
It was a pretty disappointing season. At least the beginning was fun, I suppose.
Anyway, welcome to the board, I hope you enjoy it here.
It was a good way to learn the game for sure.FrenchVikes wrote:Hey man, thanks for your welcome !
In my opinion, the video games (Madden i suppose?) is a nice way to get in to football and learn to appreciate the game and some players, so to find your team in this way...it's cool !

Welcome. We like Zimmer here. You're free to join the ranks of the Purple. Shed your sad stripes and grab a pair of horns. Plenty of ale around the table.bauce wrote:Hi! I just joined a few minutes ago from this post's timestamp.
I am a fan of the sorry-#### Bungles. It has gone down the crapper. The only person I could ever respect on that team since Marv took over is Mike Zimmer. And that is why I am here . I wanted him to be my team's coach, but the dumbrasses let him go and kept the wrong guys. And I hate Gruden to a fault - but that is a conversation for another time that concerns Zimmer as well.
I hope the Vikings win it all. If not this year, they will eventually. Mike is a fiery no-nonsense coach and doesn't do the same stupid crap week in and week out. When he was DC in Cinci, his players bled for him and now I see the same here with the Vikings. He was given the reigns to a good team but had a few setbacks early during his tenure. He fixed these setbacks masterfully and now his philosophy and hard work are coming into realization.
I am so jelly that he is your coach, but I wish him and this team the best of luck!
Dilly dilly! Thanks for the welcome! And I LOVE your quote - yes, football is a much more serious matter!dead_poet wrote: Welcome. We like Zimmer here. You're free to join the ranks of the Purple. Shed your sad stripes and grab a pair of horns. Plenty of ale around the table.
Dilly, dilly! Or as we say around these parts...SKOL!
. I hope this is a good, inclusive forum for everybody. There are many places on the internet where you see hatred for certain groups, whether it's against jews, muslims, gays, etc. I despise such behavior.
