With preseason in full swing for the Minnesota Vikings, it’s time to predict who will have the better year between Minnesota’s basketball and football teams.

As summer comes to an end, those around Minnesota get excited about two things: the State Fair and Minnesota Vikings football.  It’s no secret that the Vikings hold a special place in the hearts of Minnesotans of all ages.

The Vikings joined the NFL as an expansion team in 1961.  As one of the oldest and most storied franchises in the NFL, the Vikings fan base is undoubtedly loyal.  Through many highs and lows, Vikings fans have never stopped believing that a Super Bowl is within reach.

With a new year comes a renewed sense of hope for the Minnesota football franchise.
