Two things to throw in on the Vikings: 1. The Vikings were originally supposed to join the AFL in 1960, but team owner Max Winter agreed to wait a year and take an expansion franchise opportunity with the NFL instead. As a result, the Oakland Raiders came into existence in their place. 2. In their four Super Bowl appearances, the Vikings never once had a lead at any point in the game. In fact, the Vikings did not score a single point in the first half of their four Super Bowl losses as they were outscored by a combined 51-0. And a Twins fact... The Minnesota Twins are 11-1 all-time in World Series games at home since moving to Minnesota in 1961 (previously had been the first incarnation of the Washington Senators). The lone loss was Game 7 of the 1965 World Series at Metropolitan Stadium as World Series MVP Sandy Koufax pitched a three-hit complete game shutout in a 2-0 win for the Los Angeles Dodgers.

Don’t forget; even with two World Series the Twins were in danger of CONTRACTION, not relocation. A decade after the 1991 title, Carl Pohlad was very close in having the Twins (and also the Expos) contract before the 2002 season, meaning Twins fans were in danger of seeing the end of their ballclub, a fate worse than if their team merely relocated. Fortunately, MLB opted against ending the existence to two teams and the Twins, Minnesota’s only championship sports franchise, were allowed to keep living.

@coldsnap5742 7 ай бұрын

What a wild (no pun intended) scenario that would've been. The last team of the major four sports leagues to contract was the NHL's Cleveland Barons, formerly the Oakland Seals/California Golden Seals. And that was in the 1970s. With the money teams get from TV contracts today, contraction may never happen again.

@InchonDM 7 ай бұрын

Correction, from a Minnesotan. MLB didn't "opt against it". Minnesota's courts FORCED them to play out the final year of the contract, which bought enough time for the whole thing to become clearly revealed as a bad idea. We don't trust any of the national sports boards up here. We've had two teams taken from us and a third they just wanted to kill to save money. Never again.

The really sad thing about their hockey team leaving was that it was predicated on the owner of the team having some legal troubles he decided to flee. I'm old, so my memory may be a bit off, but The North Stars were on the cusp of becoming great when they went to another state and became great there for a short time.

Actually Minnesota has two more pro sports teams besides the four mentioned in the video Minnesota United of MLS & the Lynx of the WNBA. The Lynx actually were the last team from Minnesota to win a title as they won the WNBA title in 2017 (and one in 2011). As for Minnesota United, they have yet to even appear in MLS Cup as the closest they have come was the Western Conference final in 2020 where they were 2-1 up with 5 minutes left only for Seattle to score two late goals (including the winner with a minute left). It is easily one of the biggest choke jobs in MLS history. All of the other playoff appearances for Minnesota United have been first round exits & the club missed the playoffs this season ending a 4 year run of making it. This is rare in MLS as 18 of the 29 teams make the playoffs under the current format.

I am surprised @FivePointsVids didn't mention the curse of the Ed Thorp Memorial Trophy. The Vikings won the last NFL Championship in 1969 before losing to the AFL champion Chiefs in Super Bowl IV. The Ed Thorp Memorial Trophy was the trophy awarded to the champions of the National Football League (NFL) from 1934 through 1969. Much like the NHL's Stanley Cup, it was passed from champion to champion. The trophy went missing and the spirit of Ed Thorp is believed to have cursed the Vikings, since they lost the trophy that was named in his honor. It was later discovered to be in the possession of the Green Bay Packers Hall of Fame.

There is a supposed actual curse on the Vikings. Supposedly, when the Vikings won the 1969 NFL Championship game, they lost the Ed Thorp trophy and started the curse. The Ed Thorp trophy, was supposed to spend a year with the winning team of the NFL before it was passed to the next champion. The trophy was lost for years, after the Vikings won the 69 NFL championship, which started the curse. After that season when the NFL merged with the AFL, the Lombardi trophy represented the future NFL champions. Ironically, in a painful twist, the Packers had the Ed Thorp trophy in their possession and it was found some time in 2015. Anyway that was the curse of the Vikings. Minnesota has 5 NBA championships with the Lakers in the 1950’s. 4 WNBA Championships with the Lynx , 2 MLB championships with the Twins and 1 NFL championship with the Vikings.

I don’t think it’s a question. Do you know how heart breaking it is to have one of the best offensive seasons in mlb history and lose 3 games to a team that we play EVERY YEAR FOR 15 YEARS. Then losing to a lesser Houston the next year in a sweep and being so shit yoj don’t even make it and the division being HANDED to you and you collapsing and getting 3rd in the division and you actually have a decent team and win a playoff game for the first time in 19 YEARS and losing to AN EVEN LESSER Houston in 4 games all in a five year span

@@ryanjohnson3749 by that logic, Minnesota should also be disqualified for the Twins winning two WS titles. One lone championship doesn’t negate all the bad luck and heartbreak that has plagued the Colts and especially the Pacers.

You don't have 4 'Big 4' teams... Do Buffalo, Cincinnati, and San Diego have bad sports histories? Yes, but having 1 or 2 bad teams isn't remotely close to have 4 losing teams.

The video failed to mention that the 1991 WS featured two teams who finished last in their divisions the year before, thus why it was called the Cinderella Series. Cinderella, however, might accurately describe the Twins more than the Braves considering the sustained success they had since then.

Never accomplished anything of note in their young NHL history, all the banners at their NBA stadium are from a franchise that relocated decades ago and achieved amazing success without them, never hosted a NASCAR race, won 1 world series 30 years ago but they sold their soul to do it and have been sh*t ever since, and despite having the 3rd best statistical team of the super bowl era, they haven't won that either. If there is a hell, it is in Minnesota.

Amen brother a truer video has never been made. As a lifelong Minnesotan it's crazy that the only professional sports team that has done well in the last few decades was the Lynx, from the WNBA and no one cares (including me). At least we have college hockey though;) It also feels prophetic you dropped this video right before Cousins tore his Achilles.

I do think it's a stretch to label the Yankees as the Twins' "personal kryptonite" since... that's pretty much their role throughout all MLB. They're there to crush ALL dreams of people not in pinstripes. And man, no wonder The Fumble Dimension has Kofie hopping between different universes. A Timberwolves empire WOULD completely break our world, judging by this video.
