We're here for you. I hope intervention isn't neccessary. Deprograming can get ugly.

Hey, I finally got my DSL back.

When you look at some of talent on this team, we should be pumped.
The O Line- The DEF- AP-etc.

The coaching staff just keeps bringing me back to reality.

I am still open to liking them- but they will have to earn it.

Govs, you're still missing my point. You should stop running this in circles though. I'm not saying any more games should've been won or lost than were. In many sports games both teams do really poorly. The winner is the team who screws up the least. But when the refs screw up, people like you just say "well, we should've done something better somewhere else." Why? We did something better then.

Something tennis did very right, instant reply anytime. Same thing with challenges, except, wait...you can't do them anytime.

Bottom line, the Vikes weren't the horrible team you make them out to be. That's it.

I'll wait til Week 1 to see "how the team is put together". 3rd stringers and guys fighting for a roster spot don't epitomize the team in the least bit.

Just been watching ESPN a bit. He's the #1 pick and he's one of 2 first round picks not signed yet. In addition, many on ESPN say that if he does get signed he probably won't play much this year.

Yes, I was joking, but it would improve our passing game immensely.

Well is it going to be worth watching :? I guess I will probably take a peak at the start...this has the feel that the starters all ready played and we're jumping right to the 2nd 1/2 players :shock: I sure hope they suprise me.

Here Is the NFL's explanation of why Comcast customers don't have the NFL Network... it's actually funny to read - I think the NFL is a little pissed at them!

I have Directv, so whatever...

Being I'm out of town have they said whether or not AP will play in this next pre-season game against the Jets?
I didn't see him on the list of injuries..although there were 6 players probable and 1 questionable...including T Jackson.

So I was reading SI and there was some article on the RB's just a projected % on how they would split it. It said that the vikes would split it
45%-Taylor
45%-Peterson
10%-Moore

I think that's about right if Peterson stays healthy all year if not i think.

80%-Taylor
15%-Moore
5%-Peterson

that if hes not healthy

I didn't see it, but on paper looks like an impressive win over the Jets, with Peterson doin' his thing, interception for a TD, good receiving yards. Promising if people stay healthy.
