1. Judd is the only one with any sense. Shame on mackey and declan letting Its A Wonderful Life fall to the last pick

2. Maybe Johnny Mundt is the one cooking up the groceries!

3. After this season, Kevin will be considered the 3rd best COACH in Vikings History!

4. 87 couldn’t score in the red zone…..

5. The missing Baldwin brother……. Judd Baldwin!!!

6. 54:05 best Christmas RomCom is “Just Friends” unequivocally.

7. Christmas Vacation is extremely overrated

8. Four Christmas' is on my big board

9. 1. It’s a Wonderful Life 2. Miracle on 34th Street. 3 Doesn’t matter – but Elf

10. I was with Declan until the third pick… Phil is 100% correct 😂

11. Dex knows good movies and yes a Christmas story is so overrated and underwhelming

12. None of us expected us to be this good. No one. The hardest of die hard fan didn’t think this was possible. We all wanted to be this good, but there was definitely doubt. Rightfully so. But I love it. SKOL! Let’s keep hitting the gas

13. Tough guys

14. Can't see this team getting blown out by any team in the playoffs , might not get to the sb but they definitely will not get blown out , that said they have a real shot at a Lombardi this year .amazing , Philly and Vikings for the title , bills and ravens for the title those are the final 4 after that who knows , kc , greenbay ( somthing is missing on those teams ). Detroit ( defense is toast ). Rams , Tampa( Dark horse) but na they don't have it . Right now looks like Bill's vs Philly ( superbowl). But if the vikes get the #1 seed they might just get there . BILLS VS VIKINGS , would be absolutely crazy . What a story that would be!!!

15. Two more underrated Xmas movies would be on my list: “Violent Night” and, if you have Apple TV+, “Spirited”, a musical based on (but not identical to) “A Christmas Carol”.

16. Sausage Party had the same affect

17. You had Pat hair this morning, Judd? Haha

18. Judd’s Grooming Tips!

19. Judd’s Shopping Tips!!!

20. The 2024 version is less fraudulent than the 2022 team which deserves credit for winning 13 games, but had very little credibility heading into the playoffs. 1998 wins in a landslide (15-1 and looking dominant from start to finish), 2017 looked very promising since they went into the playoffs on an 11-1 stretch and were playing dominant football in most of the late games. 2009 team got off to a 10-1 start, but then Childress and his insecure behavior sabotaged the last month of the season (going 2-3); they did play much better in the playoffs, but the 2009 team gets way too romanticized considering they only had the fourth best record in the NFL that year and ended on a 3-4 stretch counting the playoffs. Chilly, Favre, and Peterson were destined to destroy a great opportunity.

21. Add target to the long list of things Dex LOATHES. I have never known anyone who dislikes so many things with so much passion. Also, Christmas with the Kranks is great However, I couldnt agree more with Declan on Christmas Vacation.

    Highly recommend Klaus if you haven't seen that one. One of the best Christmas movies out there.

22. 1998 > 2009 > 2024 > 2017

23. Love actually sucks.
    It’s a wonderful Is one of the best movies ever.

24. I could understand fans who liked Kirk and believed he was a good QB. I thought he was a good QB, and a decent guy. I never understood the undying devotion to Kirk from some fans. Admittedly I'm a guy who pulls for the uniform over all else, but I certainly lean into some players more than others. Kirk could never elevate his play, or the team, over a certain level and he cost too much. Many of us understood the first contract and applauded it, but it was clear after his third season it was never going to "work" with Kirk the way that many of us wanted it to. Then frustration set in when management/ownership kept going back to the well. It was like someone not willing to leave unfulfilling, but not terrible relationship because of the unknown.

25. Bruce Willis said it’s not a Christmas movie

26. I know that Judd specified that he was comparing Cousins negotiating skills to other players, he is not alone in Vikings history if you go outside that scope. Mike Lynn ripped off the team and even negotiated 10% royalties off the Metrodome suites; Brad Childress secured his hiring here by insisting that if he left, he would accept another job elsewhere and also spent much of the 2009 season whining about a contract extension even though he was signed through 2010 (the Wilfs broke down and gave him an extension after the 10-1 start, which ended up being a major mistake and probably the reason why KOC has not been extended yet). Cousins, Lynn, and Chilly were all great negotiators considering how unspectacular that they were at their jobs.

27. Jingle all the way! 😂

28. Gotta get that rainbow tuck-free onsie at Target 😮

29. Macky hands down has the best snake draft. Yes Die Hard is a christmas movie!

30. Uncle Buck!

31. HUUUUUUUGE miss with no Muppets Christmas Carol!!!! One of the greatest adaptations of all time!

32. The miser brothers shouldve gotten a mention

33. Best team since 98. The 2017 team wasn’t as dynamic on offense.

34. Can we please turn the page on Kirk. It is done and we are fighting for the 1 seed. Can we focus on that vs., this on going Kirk bashing.

35. If The Ref is not in your top 5 I have no respect for you😊

36. There’s no such thing as a “KiRk cRuSadeR”. There were people who defended Kirk like myself because he was a good QB who overachieved as a 4th rounder on terrible Washington and Minnesota teams that had no defense or running game. What he is doing now as a 37 year old in Atlanta coming off an Achilles injury has nothing to do with what he did in Minnesota, which was win a lot of games and lead more 4th quarter comebacks than any QB in the league during that period. None of us “cRusadErs” care anymore because we are winning football games and our QB is Sam Darnold now. Only the haters bring up Kirk. It was a miserable experience hearing low IQ fans blame literally every loss on our QB, even when we were giving up 4-5 TDs in those games. Or howbout 2021 when we broke an NFL record for most game losing TDs allowed under 2 minutes. Totally Kirk’s fault huh? Was he a LB or a DB that season? I forget. Our defense was absolutely dreadful in that Giants game. We gave up 400 yards to Daniel Jones lol. Somehow its Kirk’s fault though. Get real. Everyone has moved on from Kirk except for the haters, who are 100x more annoying than any “cRusaDer” ever was. The same people will turn on Sam and already did after that 3 INT game. The same “cRusaDers” will defend Sam when he inevitably gets blamed for a loss that had little to do with him. It’s a football IQ thing. Blaming the QB is casual fan stuff. Those of us who played at a higher level or understand football realize there’s more to football than the QB. Its just low IQ to blame the QB for everything. The dude literally hasn’t played a game for the Vikings in 1.5 years and you’re still talking about him. Move on.

37. A Christmas Story is great! And that most recent sequel is actually really good, too!

38. It will be cool and wet there on Sunday. Darnold has to be careful due his hand injury. Hope KOC reels it in a little.

39. Dex is definitely last in this one, lol.

40. This team is better than the 09 and the 17 teams. This is the most complete Vikings team I’ve seen In my lifetime.

41. Pornstache is lookin’ groovy, Dex!

42. Rudolph the red nose reindeer, not being drafted, is an absolutely criminal offense by the three of you!

43. JJ McCarthy was always #2. In the Vikings draft day video you can hear Kwesi say we almost moved up to 4 to get him but we got him at 10. That tells me it was always drake maye or JJ McCarthy

44. Try year one with jack black. Thats another walk out movie.

45. The same ppl who blamed Kirk for everything turned on Darnold at the drop of a hat the second he had one bad game, and the ppl who defended Kirk told you not to overreact about Darnold having literally one bad game lmfao. Now you all wanna act like that didn’t happen? I don’t really wanna hear it tbh. Its just predictable. It was literally just 4 weeks ago that Judd and the entire fanbase was saying Darnold sucked. You guys just hate QBs or are too reactionary. That’s all this is. You’ll be right back on the “Darnold isn’t the answer train” literally the minute he has one bad game or loses in the playoffs, regardless of what actually happens in that game. Your brains have been trained to just blame the QB regardless of what happens. I don’t see Bengals fans blaming Burrow for their losses. I don’t see Chargers fans blaming Herbert when he’s literally never won them a playoff game and is a .500 career QB.

46. Best team since 2009 in my opinion
