LATEST STORIES FROM VIKINGS WAR CRY
I Wonder If...
The season before last, the New England Patriots came within a couple of minutes from pulling off the unthinkable...a perfect 19-0 season. They did however, complete the only perfect 16-0 regular season in NFL history, proving that it could in fact be done.
Currently, each of the eight divisions has an undefeated team, except the NFC West(San Francisco 49'ers). At just 3-0, is...

Early Season Observations
Opening the season with two wins, certainly gives the Minnesota Vikings the start they wanted. Opening the season with two wins and yet to have hit the home turf gives the Vikings an even added boost. Averaging an impressive 30 points per game, good for fourth in the league, the Vikings have easily passed the first two tests of the season.
Playing two patsies, the Cleveland Browns...

Percy Harvin: Newest Viking Weapon
Slowly but surely, the Minnesota Vikings continue to build their receiving corps. Three years ago, it was perhaps the worst set of receivers in the NFL. Featuring butter fingers receiver Troy Williamson, the passing game carried with it no serious threat to opposing defenses.
Then in 2007, along came then rookie receiver Sidney Rice. The tall, swift, athletically gifted receiver...

Wake Me, This Must Be A Nightmare!
Ahhhhhh, as another NFL offseason hibernation comes to an end, as I pull myself out of slumber, this couldn't be right. The Viking starting quarterback heading into week 1 is............who? Naw. No way. Couldn't be.
When going into rest, thoughts of the 2009 season were full of excitement and optimism. The 2008 season represented the return to the playoffs, the first division...

Happy Camp!
Finally, after what seems like an endless summer and enough Brett-******'-Favre talk to fill Noah's Ark, we have some kind of organized football taking place. Training camp is upon us, and while we're still six weeks or so away from games that actually matter, I'm pretty damn excited. So from me to you, and from my imaginary family to your real one:HAPPY CAMP!Now...

Season Preview 2009 Minnesota Vikings
Anthony Chergosky from DailyNorseman.com gives us a look at the 2009 Minnesota Vikings. When you think of the 2009 Minnesota Vikings, two words probably enter your mind: Brett Favre. But when taking a look at the team, its chances of repeating as NFC North champs, and its opportunity to go further in the playoffs than it did last season, Favre is just the tip of the iceberg. All...

So I've been a bad little boy...
Hey gang, great to see ya'll again!.... Oh yea, about that little month-and-a-half-or-so stint where I didn't publish a single thing on the blog... I should probably comment on that. I'll warn you up front, it's nothing exciting. I wasn't a sleeper agent for the CIA and I didn't get abducted by KFAN or the Star-Trib to get the scoop on the whole He Who Shall...

Fantastic 4?
I wasn't planning on doing this for my first post, but the more I think about it the more I realize that this situation needs to be addressed. And while I know that many of you have reached a level of Brett Favre saturation that seems impossible given that we're still in the month of May, I'm still going to talk about him.I really need to get this off of my chest. I...

Let's Be Friends
Howdy gang. As most of you are aware, today is my first day on the job, so go easy on me. And no, this post isn't going to be about the blog's namesake. We currently find ourselves in the belly of the off-season with ample time for me to rant and rave about the god-forsaken Vikings. Instead, I wanted to take this opportunity to give you, my loyal and adoring readership...

The Brett Favre Ego Factor
Over at The National Football Post, Andrew Brandt raises a point about Favre that should probably be taken seriously. Brandt speculates that there is one factor that will influence Favre's decision more than any others -- it's not his injury nor his chances of winning a championship, but instead, it's how much the Vikings can boost his ego:If the Vikings woo Brett the...
