Tice seems more and more like Green every day. Bench that damn Culpepper already. What else does he need to make it happen? Sheesh! Or at least make him a back up running back or something.
Culpepper is one of the top rated QB's in the league. Why bench him? He was sacked 8 times yesterday because of the O-line. It's hard to do your job at QB when you have no time to throw let alone hand off to someone. I think he has done a good job this year so far.
I'll agree that he definitely needs help from his line but he also needs to hold on to that ball and make the passes more on target like a big budget QB is suppose to. I just get so sick of his inconsistancies.
<edit> I guess he isn't as bad as last year anyway. It's just the way he handles the pressure that bugs me. You'd think he was a rookie sometimes. His stats aren't all that bad I guess. Culpepper Stats
Hell, put Frerotte in and see if he screws up just to shut up the nay sayers. It can't hurt can it? If it's truly all the lines fault, it will come out in the wash.
Just remember that QB's take awhile to come into their own. Take a look at Favre's, Manning's or McNair's stats for their first 5 years. Culpepper is right along those lines if not better. The QB has the hardest job to learn out there.
Go SanFran, Denver and VIKINGS!!!!! I want to get into the record books for the most play-off losses. I wonder who holds that title? Bills? Anyone know who and how many losses? I assume it's gotta be an old team like GB or Pit or the Bears.
What is wrong with this team??? They blow out KC, then with the NFC North and the playoffs on the line, they are losing to the worst team in football? Right about now I hope they lose, because they will get blown out in the first round of the playoffs.
Pack were in a situation of 4 and 26 and couldnt hold the eagles. Its the same situation as the Vikes had against the Cards. Now they know how it feels. Also, Whats this I heard that Favre was playing catch with his dad? hmmm LOLOLOLOL IM SO GLAD THE PACKERS LOST!!!!!!!!! Why is it that when Favre wins, he holds all these press conferences boasting about winning then when he loses a game he runs off the field and dosnt speak to any media outlets? I cant stand that idiot! next season, i hope he breaks both thumbs
Why is it that when Favre wins, he holds all these press conferences boasting about winning then when he loses a game he runs off the field and dosnt speak to any media outlets?
Maybe he doesn't want to be critical of teammates that may have lost the game. it would be easy to be critical after some losses. Maybe Randy Moss should take that page and read it.

Is it personal or did you just not like the role he played in WWE?
Â
Nah... I was fine with everything about him in the WWE......even being a Viking... i think it would be pretty cool, if he makes the team, which there is little chance of, anyhow.
The reason I dislike him, is becaue of 2 seperate incidents, in which I ran into him at 1st Avenue, when he was there, watching another independant federation's shows.... on the first occasion, I was actually introduced to him by another wrestler there, who happened to be a friend of his, I said something along the lines of "Damn, Its cool to get to meet you, man....I get to as many shows, as I can, and watch WWE all the time, and one day hope to be there myself" and I went to shake his hand, and he said "Whatever, ass... get the hell out of my way" and he walked away, kind of bumping into me, as he left with a couple of his boys.
The 2nd incident, happened again at 1st avenue at the same feds show, several months later... I wasnt even going to bother talking to him, because of the 1st run in..... Shelton Benjamin was there, hanging out too (he's also in the WWE, and was a team mate/room mate of Brock, when they wrestled for the U of M)... again, I was introduced to Shelton by the same guy that introduced me to Brock... so there we are, me and Shelton Benjamin, discussing wrestling, government, popular hangouts, music, chicks, etc.... and Brock comes walking up, to get Shelton, so they could take off, because there was a Smackdown taping the next day at Target Center, and they needed rest..... Brock walks up, cuts infront of me, and starts talking to Shelton, who says "Hey.. I was talkin to that dude behind you"... Brock swings around to look and see who he's talking about.... see's me, and smiles, and acts like he's going to shake my hand, and apologize.... as soon as he see's me moving my hand up, to take his, he pulls the quick "OOH!! I GOTCHA!!" routine, and moves his hand away, and starts laughing, and says "Okay, see ya, little man!" and waves at me, directly in my face...
Now... me... having had a number of beers in me up to that point, the majority of which were free, and remembering the first encounter with Brock, I actually stepped towards him, and said "Look, I dont know who you think you are, but Ive met you twice now, in public, and you've been a complete asshole both times! What the fuck is wrong with you?!"... you could have probably heard a pin drop, anywhere in the area of where we were standing, because everyone within earshot, stopped what they were doing, because im pretty sure they thought Brock was gonna reach over, and rip my head off of my body, and toss it in a trash can.... but instead, he just chuckled and backed up, and said "yeah... well... whatever" and then he and Shelton took off, with whoever was with them at the time.Â
 I actually stepped towards him, and said "Look, I dont know who you think you are, but Ive met you twice now, in public, and you've been a complete asshole both times! What the fuck is wrong with you?!"...
LOL!! I love that shit. Most of those pseudo celebs never have anyone around to take them down a peg or two and a lot of the time that's how they end up to be assholes in the first place. Kinda like why a dog licks his balls.
We need more VJ's in the world I tells ya. Good job bud!

I dont deserve the props.... Captain Morgan and Coke do.... as well as MGD, and Corona, and whatever else I had that night, that could have gotten me killed. hahaha... you shoulda seen me on the way to the bus garage, after the show... I was sure that he was waiting outside for me.

The spreads are now posted and if they are correct, I'll have only picked 7 winners this week. I always seem to screw myself up on those wishful long-shots every year.Â
Remember it's free to play and all you need is a free Yahoo account.
Just think of it, you could be a Lion fan.
Go Lions on Thanksgiving!!!!!
Anyone else think that the Rams are going to have a field day against the Vikes? Sad to say, I think they will.
Sad to say, you were right wolvie. :(
What an embarrassment.
Tice seems more and more like Green every day. Bench that damn Culpepper already. What else does he need to make it happen? Sheesh! Or at least make him a back up running back or something.
He told the press that Culpepper was his starting quarterback and now it seems that he's too stubborn to admit maybe he might be wrong.
does anybody think the Vikes will still make the playoffs?
I'm not sure they'll even make the bus let alone the playoffs. I still have a little faith tho.
Oooops. Double post. That's what happens when I try and correct something as it's already sending.
Culpepper is one of the top rated QB's in the league. Why bench him? He was sacked 8 times yesterday because of the O-line. It's hard to do your job at QB when you have no time to throw let alone hand off to someone. I think he has done a good job this year so far.

I just don't know what the hell to say any more. My stomach hurts. I'm actually glad that's finally over.
Go Seattle.
"If you're going to be a champion, you've got to close it out," Minnesota coach Mike Tice said, "and we didn't close it out."
Fire the bonehead Tice
I just hope my Sooners don't choke in New Orleans. At least they know how to win the big games.
It's almost as fun to cheer against the Packers as it is to cheer for the Vikings! I almost hope they win so I can cheer against them again!
I had my Packer Backer father-in-law tell me today the the Vikes announced their new training camp as being in Embarass, MN.
and I bit :-(
Pack were in a situation of 4 and 26 and couldnt hold the eagles. Its the same situation as the Vikes had against the Cards. Now they know how it feels.

And thankfully Brock's chances of making the actual team, let alone even the practice squad are VERY slim.
What's with all the hostility towards Lesnar VJ?
Is it personal or did you just not like the role he played in WWE?
[Edited by on Aug 25, 2004 at 08:12pm.]
I think he might make the team just for the publicity he generates. His jersey sales are second only to Moss.
JOE!!!

If it makes you feel better.....
One of my best friends... http://www.wrestlinghalloffame.org/champions/?names&wrestler=1535Â wrestled him all the time and repeatedly slapped him around....
He is alumni wrestler at the U and often goes back and wrestles the BIG boyz as they often don't have good "sparing" partners for practice.

I avoided Bennett like the PLAGUE in my early fantasy football league......
