From the Pioneer Press:
"At the right price, free-agent quarterback Rex Grossman could end up with the Vikings."

Now that would be a night...

The right price? What the hell is that supposed to mean?

Exactly how much is a bus ticket out of Chicago these days anyway? You'd think the Bears would be happy to foot that bill.

I don't know.... How much would they pay us?

How ever much it is it wouldn't be enough.

A good acquisition as a back up. But his situation is interesting.

How it turns out will tell a lot about the depth of talent at that position in the league.

TJack will have to do right now boys. There isnt anybody out there who will be available to help.

The only way to go is to build around him. Get quality WRs and figure out how to counteract how teams are shutting down AP.

Daunte did alright when the team around him was strong.

Do I want Rex Grossman?

Answer: No way

Two reasons
1. He isn't any better after five NFL seasons
2. Former Bear coordinator Ron Rivera summed it up best, "He's a mental midget"

I guess that rules me out too.

For posting here....no. Mental midgets are ver welcome. But as far as wearing a lavendar shirt and reaching through another guy's crotch on Sunday afternoons in hopes of winning NFL football games, yes, you are out of contention.

And I was worried they wouldn't make a big splash this off season.

Hey look! Herschel Walker has multiple personalities.

No wonder the Vikes traded so many players for one guy - they actually got several in return! It's just a shame that none of them was a decent running back.

Thank you. I'll be here all night. Tip your waitress.

That may explain why he talked about himself in the 2nd person (Or is it 3rd?) when he was interviewed.
I used to laugh when he would say "It's Not Herschels fault that this, or that happened" Love the rim shot emoticon

This explains why we gave up all of those guys and draft picks for Herschel.

Who knew?

Adrian Peterson wins the Pro Bowl MVP. That's as good as a playoff spot...

Right?!

4 Vikings in the Pro Bowl, one the MVP , and an 8-8 season.

Does that sound right?

I don't know if its right but it sounds familiar.

Cy Young
Batting Champ

first round play off loss.

But Champ, The Twins won 96 games and the division and were in the playoffs. No comparison IMO.

It is being reported that Minnesota Viking Defensive Lineman Kenechi Udeze has a form of leukemia.

My thoughts and prayers go out to Kenechi and his family.

I wonder if a little birdie told Walters that one.

Actually it was seven Vikings. Petersen, Richardson, Hutchinson, Birk, Pat & Kevin Williams and Sharper.
