Well, if today is the day to act craptastic, then so be it:
I think each and every one of ya's needs a fricking life, and if your bosses knew how much time you spent on this board I'm sure you'd get fired from your crappy, minimium wage jobs. Writing on a message board isn't an occupation, people! Geesh! And if you really want to know more about a football team than you do about your own families then you should at least cheer on a frickin' winner like the 'Hawks, or '9ers, or Rams. For the love of God people, you make me sick! The best part of all of you ran down your momma's leg!!!!


Eh, didn't feel as good as I thought it would. :rolleyes:

P.S.- for the people who can't read between the lines, I'm totally kidding.

And no, Kerouac is not getting banned, I just had a PMS morning - Post Marcel Shipp. I took myself out of the admin/moderation business last week.

As far as vikesfan is concerned, I didn't do it but he was taking on NEM characterics and must have really pissed off the Politics board mods. So I agree with it.

Personally, I am for more angered at the shoddy treatment of Shelton than I am at the benching of Shipp.

No we All Need is for Training Camp and the season to start sooner rather than later.

Smith should have been cut. He makes 2 mil a yr for what? Back up backs come cheaper than that. People griped that Plummer at 7 mil a yr robbed the team of resources that could have been used to upgrade the team. Plummer gave the team more production than Smith does. Where is the outrage over Smith's salary?

Many, many people have complained about Smith's salary. Where have you been? :confused:

If you think about it, this is the best way to break camp. Everyone is put in a situation where they can't relax for the next month. The starting line-up knows that they need to keep working hard to keep their spot. Everyone else knows that they need to step up in order to compete. Those who take the next month off will probably be in the first round of cuts.

Shipp will see plenty of time no matter if he is a backup or starter. Smith might still have some gas, but he'll need to rest more- it's the major drawback of getting older. Also, assuming that we actually play with the lead this year, there's no way that Green will keep running Emmitt for 2 quarters just to kill the clock. He'll run Shipp.

I completely agree...Marcel shouldn't get down, at all. He will "WIN" the starting job in camp...No doubt about it. Then he can truly say he wasn't given his position or annointed as the starter! :thumbup:

(1) "Players who say the wrong things to the press find their quotes on overhead projectors in the next day's meeting."

(2) If Shipp gets beaten down by a not being named starter in June then how is he going to do when he gets beat on by the Carolina defense all game and needs to get those 4 yards for the winning TD after an exhausting 50 minutes of football?


How are the Vikings even going to run the ball now that Bennet is done, O.Smith is worthless, and Moe Williams is not fast ?

And how will they over come the sheer stupidity of Tice as there coach?

Go to the Vikings board, and talk about that.

:thumbup:

Oh Yeah the Vikings suck!

Also, doesn't Emmitt cost us less than he makes because we get some veterans "discount" where his cap value is less?

I recall that being said last year as one reason Bidwill pursued him.
