at the end of the day the Vikings are going to do what's best for the team; if that means getting rid of the cancer of AP, so be it. As we have seen in the past, it does not matter how good you are. If you are a cancer, you will be gone.

or how about the big blunder the Vikings made by voiding out their 7th overall pick?

how about cordarrelle Patterson losing his starting job to a practice squad player???

how do you know he is a threat anymore? has anyone seen him play football in the last year? just because you don't take hits does not mean your body doesn't keep aging. yes, jerry rice did put in the work but he wasn't anything like he was when he was younger. same with Ray Lewis, he never should've been a starter his final few years in Baltimore because of how slow he was. No matter what kind of "hard work" you put in in the off season, father time eventually catches up with everyone

When is that future going to come for the Vikings? It seems like they have always said that "we are building for the future".....Drafting players like Christian Ponder and Troy Williamson in the 1st round is not building for the future....

Favorite moment: Andy Schneider beating the snot out of the KOTZ kid from Manitoba

what im saying is a player of AD caliber can force his way out no matter what.

how well did that work out for the Green Bay Packers when Brett Favre wanted out of GB??? Like I said, contracts mean jack in the NFL and everyone knows it.

how many times have i heard this song and dance before? when are you vikings fans going to realize that the vikings are a mess from top to bottom! there is a reason why they suck year in and year out, THEY DRAFT PLAYERS IN THE FIRST ROUND LIKE CHRISTIAN PONDER! Before anyone says "he sucks and he never should've been picked when he was", you were probably the ones who said he was going to be the greatest thing since sliced bread. the fact of the matter is, AP probably wont be in MN this season and there wont be a hoard of draft picks coming the vikings way. its just reality

why would i

What makes you think that he will come back to the Vikings? He has already made over $50+ million dollars that his agent negotiated a contract for him that has paid him a lot of money. the final three years of Adrians contract is NON-Guaranteed money (like I've said, NFL contracts mean jack SH&T). AD could walk away this year and leave the Vikings with nothing but a dead cap salary hit.

Yes, he will be traded but if he isn't traded before the draft his value keeps going down. He has stated many times over and over again that he wont play for the Vikings, what do you not understand? When a player of his caliber is un happy, the team does not keep them. Contracts in the NFL don't mean crap anymore, he will be moved before the draft and it wont be for a buttload of draft picks like Vikings fan thinks. Not sure if you guys listen to KFAN but even PA says the Vikings don't hold all the cards.

they were going from nike to reebok the last time they had a sale. so unless they are changing equipment, I don't see one coming anytime soon

yes but he has made it clear that he wont play in MN, what are you people not understanding.

yup

no, the Vikings don't hold all the cards. he has enough money and he could just walk away and then the Vikings don't get anything in return. as much as Vikings fans want to think that they hold all the cards, they are wrong.

Also, do you mortgage the future for maybe one or two good years left in him?

Doesn't matter if AP is better than anyone else, HE HOLDS ALL THE CARDS. The Vikings can't make him play for them and if he is truly unhappy in MN it would be wise for them to move him for something. Nothing in AP's contract is guaranteed and AP knows that....

Taking the original logo off of a game worn jersey and putting on a logo that was never worn with that jersey or that style. That's what makes me cringe.

The Vikings are stuck in a hard place. They either keep him and he holds out (passes on millions of dollars) or the Vikings trade him for whatever they can get. We will all find out by next week (i think thats when the draft is). AP's value isn't as high as you think. He ran for 2000 yards THREE years ago, history proves that RB dont last that long in the NFL.

real original

not to be real anal (but I am) but that Defauw jersey is no longer considered a gamer (not that it matters because he probably wont be selling it) in my eyes and probably anyone else who collects gamers. I actually cringed when I found out he replaced the logos on that jersey.

Leinie's light is a top notch "light" beer, there is a liquor store on 71 south (in Bemidji) that carry's it but its expensive. everytime Im in the cities I go over to Hudson and pick up a few cases for 12 bucks

so was that a gamer then? did you change out the logos or did someone else?

what happen to the logo on that gamer?
