I didn't believe for a minute that this would happen but I'm stoked.

Great, so along with our AARP QB, we've got a receiver who half-asses every play where he's not the go-to guy. :rolleyes:

Well at least until Rice comes back and shows he's 100% he will be the go to receiver so that half-ass thing shouldn't be a problem. He also tends to be very good and well behaved in his first season with a new team (except for the Raiders thing which was their fault). I'm not sure how are AARP QB will be for the rest of this season but he was damn good last season and for better or worse our best option for this season. This could very well totally blow up and be a mess but I think the odds are as good or better that this could just blow up in a good way.

If I could buy stock in a locally and legally owned boutique "coffee shop" ...


Moss is class with a capital K.
Meter maids everywhere are strapping on armor.

Re: Booyah! Heees back... Go Vikings
 

Good luck with that. :r

Re: Booyah! Heees back... Go Vikings
 

Ya well enjoy him.....I can't believe we let him go for a 3rd round pick :td

How 'bout we trade even up for Welker? :r

If Moss doesn't half-ash it, he will outrun Favre's throws all day long...

Re: Booyah! Heees back... Go Vikings
 

Seriously?? Wes Welker is as effective as he is in large part of the space Randy creates. Our Welker may very well be Greg Camarillo that dude catches everything. With some space he can get us those third and threes.

I posted the angel picture being a smart ass. I know Randy has his issues and is no angel but I also thinks he gets more flak than he deserves. I don't want to rehash all of the incidents but in the grand scheme of the dumb **** a lot of players have done in the same period of time Randy is not even close to one of the worst.

From a football standpoint he is going to be motivated when he gets to Mn. He will be a big difference maker for the club this season. Which is all that the ownership is really looking for. If he ends up being a rental and they win then it is worth it.

He instantly changes how teams will scheme for this offense and instantly gives the Vikings way more options and makes them more dangerous.

Shades of Tarkington coming back from the Giants.

Yeah, I was joking. But at least Welker can throw a friggin' block. I don't think Moss has thrown one since his rookie season.

straight cash homey.... still the greatest sports quote of all time.

Re: Booyah! Heees back... Go Vikings
 

Super Bowl homeboy :)

Re: Booyah! Heees back... Go Vikings
 

With AP in the backfield, he won't need to. The DB wouldn't be able to catch him. And even if he did, he'd get run over. :p

Seriously, though, this is a move the Vikes needed to make. They needed to add a playmaker who can stretch the field. A couple years ago, that was supposed to be Berrian, but who knows what the hell happened to him. It gives them a legitimately strong receiving core, especially when Rice comes back. Given the fact that they have one of the top 2 backs in the league, it makes the offense EXTREMELY dangerous. Load up to stop one, and you still have to deal with the other. Great move for the Vikes, and the fanbase here still loves him and is very glad he's back "home".

As for his issues, well, he has less baggage than a lot of other players out there. He hasn't been arrested and spent time in jail, no DUIs, is not in the league substance abuse program, and generally keeps to himself in the offseason (from what I've read and heard) and isn't out there hitting the clubs and doing things like shooting himself in the leg. Given the skills he brings to the table and what the Vikings needed, I'll deal with his baggage and overlook a lot of it. From everything I can recall, his tantrums have not directly lost a game for any of the teams he's played for.

Re: Booyah! Heees back... Go Vikings
 

I am just glad vike fans wont be able to say Farve has no one to throw to when the Cowboys roll them.

Re: Booyah! Heees back... Go Vikings
 

I'm not sure why New England did it, but it's gonna change their game up a lot.
Welker does so well because Moss is on the field. His numbers skyrocketed when Moss showed up.
I think NE is going with a different approach, they showed it last week. They'll shorten the field a bit, and open their long game with a better short game. (Mainly being Danny Woodhead at this point.)
New England will be just fine. I think they're making the right move by changing their gameplan up. They're talented enough to do it.

I'm not so sure what kind of impact Moss will make in Minnesota. He sure can't hurt.
It's good to see that the Vikes are willing to go for broke here. This looks like they want to take their last shot at the big prize. It scares me to see what Minnesota will look like next year. Dismal is probably too optimistic?

Re: Booyah! Heees back... Go Vikings
 

Shut your filthy mouth!!! lol :r

Re: Booyah! Heees back... Go Vikings
 

Aquiring Randy Moss does add stimulus to the arena of one's brain.

Re: Booyah! Heees back... Go Vikings
 

Please expand, your Plato-ness. :D
(That made me laugh, by the way. Thanks, buddy!!! Sounded like you're selling deodorant.)

Re: Booyah! Heees back... Go Vikings
 

I'm glad to see Moss back in purple, especially as he winds up his career. The only question is whether the porous Vikings offensive line can protect long enough to let Favre throw long passes.

The big loser is Tom Brady. He just signed a long term extension, so he got paid, but he played for years without a credible receiving threat and now he gets to go back to that misery. He enjoyed having Moss to throw to for the past three years and now he’s going to be dinking and dunking again. Ah well, he’ll always have Giselle.

Re: Booyah! Heees back... Go Vikings
 

34-3? Just saying...:r

Re: Booyah! Heees back... Go Vikings
 

Him and Giselle are having problems. Well, he is. Giselle is supposedly "spreading it around" Tiger Style. Lots of pics out there.
So now he's out Randy, too. He broke up with Randy last week. Zero catches. Tom probably gave up after he dropped the easy one in the endzone, knowing Randy was down the road anyways.
Brady likes playing with a chip on his shoulder, and he likes to play angry. He should have plenty this year.
I really think the Pats are gonna be ENORMOUS for the rest of the year, borderline juggernaut. I think their second half is gonna be a thing of legend. It's gonna be tough to get by them.
The Vikes, not so much. Sad to say, cause I'm a Farve-lover.

None of it really matters. The Steelers will be taking home the big prize. :tu

Re: Booyah! Heees back... Go Vikings
 

No doubt. Still not generally his role. He is kind of the continuation of Chris Carter. All he does is catch touchdown which is what the Vikings need. This sets it up so either Randy or AP is going to get you for big plays. You focus to stop one the other will get you.

I have been a Vikings for to long to get my hopes to high but this could be a season changer.

Re: Booyah! Heees back... Go Vikings
 

I feel sorry for the train wreck you guys are about to have happen.
Check out deadspin them people are killing him, well he done it himself. They have a pix of his package in the clip :r

Re: Booyah! Heees back... Go Vikings
 

Brett Favre that is.

I've been a Vikes fan since I was a kid. I remember Tarkenton's second stint in Purple. I got my hopes up in the Culpepper/Moss era when they set the single-season scoring record, then got destroyed in the playoffs by the Giants.
I got excited last year, even though I think Favre is the Anti-Christ. I'm still annoyed about the Saints phantom TD in the NFC title game.
I've gotten used to disappointment. My Vikes could screw things up with Jesus under center and Buddha lead blocking.
Having said that, they're going to embarass the Cowgirls.

Re: Booyah! Heees back... Go Vikings
 

The scoring record was 1998, the 15-1 season. I was at the NFC title game. That was the quietest I've ever heard 65000 people. VERY disheartening. I still blame Billick's playcalling for costing them that game.

Last year hurt, as well. Another game that they were on the brink.

I may end up disappointed every year, but I will not stop being a fan or cheering for them. :)

Re: Booyah! Heees back... Go Vikings
 

hmmmm....


Where did I put that "definition of insanity" quote when I really needed it.... :D

I was at a tech conference at the Disney Resort in Orlando. I watched the game at a bar with a bunch of guys from the NY office of the company I was working for at the time. And I may have been talking some smack since the Vikes had been steamrolling teams all season. Awkward. :r

Great post. Was not quite an embarrassment but I'll take it.

Thanks. Hopefully AP has a good game this week. He's run pretty well against the Pack in the past.

Re: Booyah! Heees back... Go Vikings
 

I'm just hoping that Jared Allen keeps up his destruction of Rodgers like last year. If we get pressure on him game over. They have no running game to speak of and Jared had him jumpy.

Re: Booyah! Heees back... Go Vikings
 

....and just that fast, apparently he is gone again....

Word on the street is that the Vikings just waived Randy Moss....

Re: Booyah! Heees back... Go Vikings
 

Maybe they can cut their losses. :tu

Re: Booyah! Heees back... Go Vikings
 

Cincy should sign him, then Carson can have a three prima donna receivers to over-throw.

Re: Booyah! Heees back... Go Vikings
 

Should have started with the f'ing head coach, then!!!!!!!!!!!! Dammit!!!! I hate Chilly and the job that he's doing! Moss was NOT the problem!!! Childress couldn't coach his way out of a wet paper bag.

I'm wondering if the Harvin injury is more serious than first thought...then it makes sense, because they would be going no-where. How about waiving Favrevarevravervarevravrevravervae, too?

WTF?!?! They won't bench a qb with broken bones in his foot, but they'll waive an underused superstar receiver.

Re: Booyah! Heees back... Go Vikings
 

Absolutely, they need to get rid of Childress first though. I agree with you on that front. Favre actually played pretty well before the split chin. I'm looking for a new team here pretty soon.

Re: Booyah! Heees back... Go Vikings
 

When I watched ocho not bother to chase down the interception he created, I lost the last ounce of hope I had in him and the Bengals.
Why teams continue to bow to prima donna pouting crybaby doucebags like TO and Ocho is beyond me. Locker room cancer isn't going to fix any club.
I suppose if it puts asses in the seats, it doesn't matter what's on the field.

Re: Booyah! Heees back... Go Vikings
 

I heard that Favre didn't like him anymore. Boom! Gone!:=:

Larry

Re: Booyah! Heees back... Go Vikings
 

If that was the case, then Childress would have been gone after last week!:banger

Re: Booyah! Heees back... Go Vikings
 

Last week? I think you mean the first preseason game he played in LAST year!

Re: Booyah! Heees back... Go Vikings
 

Glad I didn't watch the game. Not gonna watch next week either.

Re: Booyah! Heees back... Go Vikings
 

Hey Brad, how about we get rid of Captain Interception? :rolleyes:

Re: Booyah! Heees back... Go Vikings
 

Good point.

Re: Booyah! Heees back... Go Vikings
 

This will never happen due to the way the Steelers handle players but I would love to see him in the BnG. They need a big time playmaking WR. Moss, Wallace and Ward would be very tough.

Re: Booyah! Heees back... Go Vikings
 

Jeez, this team has more drama than Dallas and "Who Shot J.R.?"

Re: Booyah! Heees back... Go Vikings
 

:wo :r :r

Re: Booyah! Heees back... Go Vikings
 

Well that was quick.
