Across SB Nation, this week is Rivalry Week. Here at Acme Packing Company, we will be examining the Green Bay Packers’ greatest historical rivalries and those against their current divisional rivals. Today we begin with a look at the team’s “newest” rival, the Minnesota Vikings.
In almost every broadcast of something resembling a true rivalry game, the color commentator will make some remark along the lines of “these teams just flat out don’t like each other.” And even if the Minnesota Vikings are relative youngsters compared to the Green Bay Packers’ other divisional rivals, the Packers sure seem to dislike them as much as the Bears or Lions — if not more.
