TEAMS: Minnesota Vikings, San Diego Chargers
The Minnesota Vikings are without a doubt the best 0-4 team in the league right now. In fact I’d go so far as to say they are one of the best teams in the league right up until a high school marching band takes the field for halftime. Then, well, you’ve watched the disasters unfold: 17-7 lead against the Chargers? Mike Tolbert is unstoppable. Vikings lose 24-17. 17-0 lead over the Bucs? Josh Freeman channels John Elway, Steve Young and what the hell, Brett Favre (somebody has to mention him this week) and rallies them to a 24-20 win. 20-0 lead at home against the Lions? Too big a lead to give up? Challenge accepted. 26-23 Lions in OT. With all of this apparent promise and ultimate disappointment there is no shortage of recommendations about what the Vikings need to do to right the ship: Cut Bernard Berrian Ah, yes. Cut Stone Hands. That will change everything. The entire reason our offense hasn’t done diddly is that Berrian is out there running around not being thrown to...

Vikings Bernard Berrian to Amputee War Hero: “Sit Down & Shut Up” On Twitter
I doubt that Bernard Berrian knew the guy had lost his legs in a war, but going on Twitter when you are 0-4 and you have 2 catches on the season is probably not the best idea if you have Drake like Feelings.
Here is the entire exchange from Berrian on Twitter.
It started when someone going by @DreDaydaBoSS tweeted “Get [Donovan] McNabb *** outta foreal.. Take the bum @B_Twice...
Bernard Berrian to Amputee War Hero John Kriesel: “Sit Down and Shut Up”
Bernard Berrian has gotten into it with his Twitter followers before, often in amusing fashion, but on Sunday the back-and-forth got a little bit ugly and left Berrian looking like a complete fool.

Vikings Wide Receiver Bernard Berrian Tells Double-Amputee Iraqi War Veteran to 'Sit Down n Shut Up' on Twitter
Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Bernard Berrian has learned first-hand how unpredictable and deceptive the Internet can be. After the Vikings fell to the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday, Berrian took to Twitter to voice his frustrations, during which it appeared as though he was upset with the number of passes he's been thrown. Berrian only has two catches for 37 yards this season...

Bernard Berrian, seen here in a rare moment holding a football
Bernard Berrian has two catches on 16 targets through four games with the Vikings this season, a regrettable stat line that I’d wager is equal parts the result of Donovan McNabb playing quarterback and Berrian playing wide receiver. After Berrian’s claim on Twitter that he’d been open “the last four years,”...

Bernard Berrian, Minnesota Vikings receiver, proves need for Twitter caution in exchange with Iraq War vet amputee

Bernard Berrian tells amputee war veteran to ‘sit down n shut up’ on Twitter
The beauty of social media is that you can communicate with people around the world, forward your personal and professional profiles, and have a lot of fun. The downside of social media is that you never know who you're really talking to, and if things get heated, you can embarrass yourself in front of the entire world.
Minnesota Vikings receiver Bernard Berrian experienced the...

Berrian apologizes for Twitter exchange with public official
Going by the numbers, no NFL receiver has been less effective this year than Bernard Berrian. The Vikings wideout has been targeted 16 times, and has only two catches. To put that in perspective, Devin Hester has the fewest receptions other than Berrian of any receiver with at least 16 targets. Hester has seven catches.…

Sorry I couldn't add much more to last week's post besides my interview with Marty Caswell. There were even some topics that got left on the cutting room floor. I asked about Ryan Mathews, who seemed like he was ready to take over the game at New England before Tolbert's fumble. You remember,...
