I just went through Blaine on my way to Lino Lakes yesterday.
Did you see me?? ;-)

The Vikes thread has never been very busy,
despite the number of fans that have been on here.
I read every post that gets put on here, as I'm sure most of you do.
I'll be on more once football gets rolling. I have a job that gets very busy in the Spring, Summer and Fall, then slows down during Winter.

I don't post here much, I stick to the main board. Hoping to get myself back in good Viking order in the next few weeks, along with my blog.

I have been a Vikings fan over 40 years. My favorite time was the 1970s when we beat the Packers for 6 years straight, were always winning, and often a factor in the playoffs. Our defense in that era was among the greatest of all time. Three players from the defense are in the HOF from those teams: Carl Eller, Alan Page, and Paul Krause. I think we have been the steadiest team in the division. We never stay out of the playoffs for very long... what three year absence our longest since inception?

It's crazy stupid Marshall isn't in the hall!

It's true!

and also expect for me to periodically post something of relevance in this forum (like the Mick Tinglehoff one)... be nice if people share their thoughts, but if they don't... no hard feelings. All I can do is put it out there.

Hopefully Mick makes it with the Senior Committee this year.

Understood. Nice to meet you!

So what are thoughts, expectations for this 3rd pre-season game? Anything you're specifically looking for?

If the Rams come calling, should we trade Ponder? Not sure what their depth is, but....?

Depends on the price. Cassel isn't made of steel, he could get injured.

Sounds like Cassel is the game one guy. I'm behind it all the way as it's been his job to lose (which he hasn't) and he's got the experience. Let it buck and let Bridgewater keep on a learnin' himself how to NFL.

I'd be willing to say that even if Cassel goes down, I'd keep Bridgewater on the sidelines, at least through the first 8 weeks, and even longer depending on the kind of protection the line is providing. No need to rush him along.

I agree... But, we don't have much time left with AD and if we are in the race we need to play whoever gives us the best chance to win! I absolutely don't wanna rush Teddy Ballgame but I hate we are wasting the best running back to play in the league in the last 30 years.

I agree...sit him as long as possible.

Until he retires?

Non-story. Nothing to worry about here.

Welp, we're 4-0 in the preseason. Let's see how that translates to the regular season!
