To say that Adrian Peterson was the best player on the Vikings this year would be an understatement. He was, all things considered, the best football player on the planet. Sure, AP may have come up eight yards short of Dickerson's rushing record -- eight yards?! -- but no one else in the league was even close to as dominant at his position. A quick look at the numbers tells that story: Peterson's totals over the last 10 weeks were still higher than any other running back over the... More »
It's hard to argue with success, and during a particularly down time in local professional sports, Frazier's steady hand won the day. Without major changes from a team that won three games in 2011, the Vikings overachieved last season, reaching the playoffs and offering some thrills along the way. Sure, you can put a lot of that on Adrian Peterson's broad shoulders, but Peterson was only one piece of the puzzle. The Vikings had to make do with a shaky quarterback, suspect secondary, and a...

That unforgettable 2009 season sure seems like an eternity ago, doesn't it? If Brett Favre's arrival in Minnesota was all about making the impossible seem effortless, then his sad swan song started with the embarrassing and moved steadily toward the unbearable.

But all was... More »
While picking the winner of this category wasn't as agonizing as watching the NFC title game against the Saints--having your toenails pulled out with a grapefruit knife might be less agonizing--the choice sure as hell wasn't easy. Adrian Peterson kept up his unreal "human cheat code" routine, Sidney Rice caught passes as if his hands were magnets, Percy Harvin's rookie campaign was electrifying, and Jared Allen had quarterbacks catching mulletphobia. But it was Favre, for all the... More »

High Hopes and then most likely disappointment...but really when that day comes and we go to the SuperBowl and we FINALLY win....all of us will just then be able to say...we were there through all the years of the good, the bad, the horrible, the Moss, and the GREAT!
Nothing wrong with Bleeding Purple while living in Wisconsin!
