Dearly beloved, we have gathered here today to get through this thing called football. . .
Yes, it’s the first part of this year’s Border Battle between the Minnesota Vikings and the Green Bay Packers. In a nice twist, the Vikings won’t be visiting Lambeau in late December again this season, as we’ll be seeing the first matchup in September in Wisconsin between these two teams in a decade. Both of these teams enter this game 1-0, and the winner will get an early leg up in the race for the 2018 NFC North title.
