Henderson, MN Forums General Bleeding Purple The Vikes

Training camp kicks off this Friday. Only two draft picks are signed, but that's not a huge deal seeing how none of them are going to be relied upon to contribute immediately.

Tackle football is right around the corner. Start studying your fantasy football cheat sheets Camel, the Ground Chuck Muncie's are going to be bringing the Oaken Shutter back home this year.

Am wondering if bnag noticed that the Assassin had passed on. For some reason I recall Brian being very fond of Jack Tatum's defensive prowess.

The Assassin

Loved watching those Raiders teams. Tatum, Lester Hayes, Atkinson and Willie Brown made a hell of a back 4.

Another season of professional tackle football is right around the corner. Our beloved Minnesota Vikings start training camp this Friday with the first practice the following day.

Look for them to start off slowly to begin the season, as they will be implementing shiny new offensive and defensive schemes this year under a new coaching staff. The schedule does them no favors in the beginning of the year while they attempt to discover the intricacies of these new schemes.

Official prognostication from this chair has them finishing strong, and tallying up 8 wins and 8 losses. Maybe 7-9 depending on the refs as those guys still hate Randy Moss for the squirt bottle incident.

Confabulate....

bnag - can we get twitter updates from Kato? I know you'll be there this weekend.

I just go for the kettle corn.
