If the report of the test does show positive, it takes a special kind of stupid to do that. Reminds me of an interviewee who failed a pre-employment drug screen. When asked why he wasted everyone's time when he knew he couldn't pass, he said 'well, I thought I could when I scheduled the interview, b...

Another displaced Vikes fan here, but there is NO WAY ON EARTH I would EVER live in MN again. We have 2 choices here: Sunday Ticket or nothing. Except for the one year that Ticket was out of their minds (like $350 for the season) and we told them to eff off that year, we've watched. I was really gla...

Our O-line has issues, but I don't think they're as bad as they look right now. It does make a huge difference who's at QB, and a mediocre O-line can look pretty good if you have a quick release, mobile QB. Also, if you have someone like Ponder in there who is slow and inaccurate, the D's know they ...

Um, I thought this thread was about Asiata's starts and not Troll Anatomy 101? I've wondered why Asiata got it as well, especially since AP will most likely be out for the rest of the season. Asiata is IMO more of a fullback type player. Not straight up like Moe was, but more Moe-ish than AP-ish. Mc...

Since schedules are determined by previous years' performance and the networks actually WANT to make money with advertising and market share, it doesn't surprise me that the little bit of prime time we have has sucked the last few years. well, we've sucked. We've sucked even worse on the road. So no...

I am SO VERY HAPPY that TB had such a good game. I do think he'll make everyone around him better. Starting out like this makes me think we finally got a good, young kid with a brain. From what they were saying as they were announcing, TB also has had a bit to deal with in his personal life when he ...

I'm not sure what to think about this. Obviously, the judicial system has to run it's course. I don't know what the league policy is about playing while under indictment, if there is a difference between misdemeanor or felony charges, or if it comes down to whether or not the individual is found gui...

Whether or not Peterson shares custody, has joint custody or full custody, what he did was wrong. I don't care how he was raised, that is a cop out and always has been. There is enough information out there to show what is right and what isn't. Taking a switch to bare skin in such a manner where you...

The game plan doesn't change the bad play by so many. Poor execution, across the board, was the theme for this game. I don't care who is in, they are all professionals - or supposed to be. Why did Norv get away from the run (which worked) to go straight to the air (which didn't work) and keep going ...

I've seen a few more articles on this, and if they don't indict for abuse as well as negligent injury I'll be surprised. Yes, I think he needs to be accountable for his actions! I see many people are of the mind to give him a fair trial followed by a proper hangin', boot him out of the league and wi...

The timing for this is just bad for Peterson, because he will reap the results of the Ray Rice fiasco and that's a WHOLE DIFFERENT ANIMAL than this. If this would have happened before the Rice debacle, the severity of punishment would be much less. Face it, we are dealing apples and oranges, and bec...

I'm fairly certain that the McKinnon pick was more to shore up after the loss of Gerhart. I don't see Asiata as a premier back, but then we haven't seen much of the man in regular season regardless. Glad they activated Banyard, he has a little more experience. I still wanna see what McKinnon's got i...

I'm thinking this Sunday. Let's see what the kid has for us!

Ok, so Adrian's down for a while most likely. Did we not keep McKinnon? Asiata is good, but I think McKinnon could put a spark in our run game and be unexpected by the Pats. Our D will still be busy, keeping the Brady Bunch in line will be a good test, and they would have to do that whether #28 play...

The way the NFL figures compensatory picks looks to be worse than trucker math.

BTW, I really liked what I saw out of or D-line, hoping it's a sign of things to come. It's hard to watch the Vikes when the Front 4 are lacking - just not 'real' to me!
