Apparently, Leslie Frazier’s residence was egged earlier this season. An investigation revealed that two eggs hit his front door, two skimmed off the top of the roof, two wound up in his neighbor’s yard and a half-dozen landed on the welcome mat, several feet short of the door.

Police suspect Donovan McNabb …

Welcome to my world, or at least to my mailbox. The Vikings’ combustible 2011 season has led to a slew of jokes popping up on a daily basis. Some are entertaining, some I’ve heard a thousand times and some are unprintable. But it has been a relentless barrage.

And as we gear up for tonight’s game at Lambeau Field, the volume has increased. Packer fans really seem to be reveling in Minnesota’s misery.

For example, I just heard about the big Vikings-Packers ice fishing contest. The Packers were killing the Vikings until the Minnesota coaching staff sent a spy over to see what they were doing. The Vikings’ spy breathlessly reported back:

“They’re drilling holes in the ice!”

Vikings fans should remember one thing, however:

Q: How do you save a Packers fan from drowning?

A: Take your foot off of his head.

Regardless of the teams’ records, these Vikings-Packers games are great fun. And I suppose it’s only fair that Packer backers are crowing. Two years ago when Brett Favre was leading the Vikings to the NFC championship game, Minnesota fans were dishing it out pretty good. The message boards and forums were filled with vitriol as Packers fans clearly were in a severe state of denial.

That certainly has changed as Green Bay now sits atop the football world and the Vikings are a mess. So the question is whether Vikings fans, suffering terribly this season, will be able to have one good howl after tonight’s game. Can their team administer the ultimate, humbling kick in the butt by knocking the Packers from their undefeated perch?

Wait, I just thought of this one that somebody sent. It was about how last season Brad Childress was so depressed over the Randy Moss fiasco that he jokingly told his team he might douse himself with gasoline and light a match. Owner Zygi Wild heard how depressed his coach was and suggested the team take up a collection for him. Asked how much the players had collected, Wilf replied:

“About 50 gallons, but some of them are still siphoning.”

Anyway, sure the Vikings could knock off the Packers. I don’t think they will, but they could. The Vikings played their best game of the season against Green Bay at the Metrodome. They are coming off a victory and a bye week. And the Packers may be taking Minnesota lightly. Why wouldn’t they? The Vikings aren’t striking fear in the hearts of anyone, except maybe their own fans.

Now that would be a hoot. It would make the Vikings’ season and, quite probably, do nothing to derail the Packers from another Super Bowl appearance.

By the way, do you know what you call a Packers fan with two brain cells? Pregnant.

Actually, that arrived as a Vikings joke and I switched it around, just in the spirit of fair play.

Realistically, the Vikings should go 3-5 over the second half of the season for a 5-11 overall record. They have a chance to beat Denver and maybe Oakland at home. And they could beat Washington on Dec. 24 in D.C. if the Redskins are thinking ahead to Christmas.

Meanwhile, Minnesota’s coaching staff spent the extra week trying to figure out what’s going on.

“We went back and looked at everything from an offense and defense and special teams standpoint,” Frazier said last week. “We think it was beneficial for us. We’ll see as we go forward. But we think we identified some things that can hopefully help us going forward.”

That would be good. And it could make for a lot of fun tonight. Then Vikings fan can crow for a while. Otherwise, you know what a Vikings fan can do when he sees a Packers fan staggering through his yard? Reload.

Anyway, stop sending these things to me. I’ll bust if one more person emails me the one about putting an end zone in my back yard to keep the Vikings out. Take me off the mailing list.

Except for the person who sent the one about the sheep and the pig. I laughed all day. I just wish I could share it.
