I was at the Rams Vikings beatdown in the dome in '99. Randy Moss squirted water on the ref. They were really good with Cunninham tho before that. That Rams team was badass. #28 was the fucking man. STL won't forget that.

Sellout
Lol you crack me up. All inspirational and matter of fact. Then "sellout."

You claim (not calling you a liar) to have been to A LOT of games. Are you a trust fund kid or do you work in sports?

Right place right time. Dad had season tickets since Tony Banks and L Flip. Rams just got good fast. I knew a guy that played for the birds and got hooked up.


So lucky as hell/blessed. Just giving you some shit. Stop crying :teabag:

I'm right here, not sure what the hell everyone's talking about, the loss to the Eagles was not Bradford's fault at all.

I was at that game too. so fun to watch that team. It did happen so fast, I remember many times that season thinking is this really happening. Didn't seem real it was so easy.

Are people saying we are hiding? The people who told us to wait till January because it's too early to tell??

Silliness.

Two draft picks isn't selling their future.

A first in 2017 and a potential second pick in 2018 is what they gave up. Also after paying Bradford some lettuce they only have a half mil of cap space which cripples them in Free Agency and will force them to trim the fat off their team over the next couple years. In the end their next two drafts will have to be the best they've ever had to keep this team up to par or they will have a major drop off.

I imagine AP will be cut next year that will be 18m savings right there.

So you are stupid in politics and sports.

They made the playoffs for almost 20 straight years from 88 to 2008.

Pretty sure they had a 15-1 year in there.

Have you ever heard of Randy Moss?
Okay Twinkle Toes, how many Super Bowls have the Vikings won in their 55 years in the league?

I'd be ecstatic if it's first and second

We're fine with cap room
Matt kalil
Adrian Peterson (most likely)
Andre Smith
Chad greenway
Jarius Wright (most likely)

All come off books

Don't underestimate AP. I think he will do everything humanly possible to come back next season and the Vikes will give him an opportunity to come back as well with everything he's done for them.

They're not going to bring him back for 18 mil when they could cut him with zero penalty.

We have 24 million in cap room for 2017. Cut ap that's 42 million

But apparently that's crippling

If he's back its reduced salary.
