It's a funny phenomenon. Not funny ha ha, funny lame.

People that play lame or dumb...but it's on purpose. You know it. They know you know it...but it plays bc people are really dumb on the internet. And plenty of people don't know the poster is playing.

I say go for quality content. (yes my play to Scott was quality)

the people that play dumb are the Meatsauces of the world. Now I'm sure you don't know who that is. A local Radio personality on the KFAN's morning show plays a doofus on the show and the others mock and ridicule him. It's all very juvenile, but in postgame shows, he usual has a lot of good incite on what happened in the game.

His real name is Paul Lambert. but he goes by Meatsauce. and it is IMHO a stupid schtick.

He was named Meatsauce by Mike Morris when the Power Trip was his show. It has never been the same since they fired Morris. Now I call it the Morons in the Morning......but the youngsters seem to eat up their juvenile antics.

How anybody listens to the kfan morning show is something I will never understand. It’s like a bunch of early puberty boys talking.

Only time I listen is to hear Ben Leber after Vikings games and half the time they talk over him about stupid junior high stuff.

Ben "Smartest Guy in the Room" Leber. I say Cove and Sauce are smarter. Hawkey is maybe not dumb, but he's weird and talks too horny.


Hawkey can sure sing and produces one of the top morning shows...he really doesn't need to say too much; just run the ship.

He has an incredible voice.


He's no Warren Zevon.

Yes, Morris was the voice of maturity and intellect that kept that show cutting edge back then.

Remember how smug and smarter than everyone in the room Spielman was over having 4 3rds and a couple of 4ths? Fast forward a year:

Mond gone
Surratt gone
Robinson gone
Davis gone

Many begged him to trade up into the second, but luckily Rick was smarter than everyone else and drafted 6 guys, 4 of whom were cut a year later.


We could have had Blacklock then!

Nobody in the NFL sees Mattison as a lead RB. He's nice, but not remotely special.

Mattison could be lead back on half the teams in the NFL right now. So if 50% of all teams is nobody then I think you're right.


You're learning, grasshopper.

His voice is every bit as good as Warren's, but Warren is one of the genius songwriters of all time.

Suh wants too much money. If he takes about 1/3 of what he made last year.

We believe the Vikings are working on acquiring a new Center. Stay tuned

This is my hope, too...not sure who "VikeFans" are, or whether there is anything to back this up, but it is our biggest hole

Certainly Suh would help, but it feels like these resources are better used at C rather than DL

Doogie knew they were looking to trade for a center also...

purpleftw says that we've got about $12.2mm...suh made $9mm last year...he'll take $4-5mm this year...and then there's always the vikesgeek....


vikesgeek@vikesgeek
We shall see. Suh would be interesting. Suh had a cap figure of $9M last year. I think #Vikings are looking at a combo of Suh and OBJ or Tretter and OBJ--even though they claimed they were not interested in Tretter. Should have cap space for two FAs.

Mayock might just make Spielman look like a genius in comparison...

Raiders first-round picks from 2019-2021:

2019:
DE Clelin Ferrell, RB Josh Jacobs and S Jonathan Abram: 5th-year options declined

2020:
WR Henry Ruggs III & CB Damon Arnette: both waived following off-field incidents

2021:
Alex Leatherwood: Waived after one season


I thought leatherwood was a can’t miss player. I better leave the talent evals to the professionals.


Crazy to cut the #17 pick after 1 season.

They also traded their 2019 2nd rounder for a 2023 conditional seventh-round pick that could become a sixth-round pick.

I always like Mayock as a TV personality, but he's an absolute dumpster fire as a GM.


I liked listening to him on NFL Network, but you’re right. It’s easy to pick talent when the pressure isn’t on you.


I do think the coaching staff is involved a lot in draft and FA.


You’re right, but ultimately the call is on the G.M.

Pretty sure Gruden had final say on everything.




Bill Jandro -> RE: General Vikes Talk (8/31/2022 8:32:10 AM)

We could really use/need both Tretter and Suh.

No thank you w/OBJ. He more than likely hasn't recovered from SB injury anyway.

I thought Tretter retired.

Agree, I think C and TE #2 are probably the areas of most need right now.




Bill Jandro -> RE: General Vikes Talk (8/31/2022 9:18:48 AM)

Guessing a boy named Suh will be arriving today.

You simply don't cut your starting DE for a bust like Blacklock.




Bill Johanesen -> RE: General Vikes Talk (8/31/2022 9:22:24 AM)

C is basically a permanent need. I'd say DL needs help. Clone Pat Williams for NT and Richard Seymour at end.

I would put slot CB ahead of TE2.

Spot on. Zevon had a great album in the 70’s but he wasn’t even ‘one of the greatest songwriters’ in that decade.
