Why aren't the Vikes gonna resign Richardson? Last time I checked he just made the Pro Bowl and leads the way for the best rushing game in the league.
There is only 2 acceptable reasons for this:

1. They're going to sign Lorenzo Neal, who I think will probably retire.
2. They're going to draft that FB from GT, who is supposed to be like the last of the dying breed of oldschool FB's.

If it's for any reason other than these, i'm gonna flip my lid when AD gets beat on next year because we don't have a competent FB

Because the Vikes Front Office is almost as incompetent as the Wolves?

HAHAHA not even close, at least the Vikings will make the playoffs several times in the next 20 years. I think just about every sportswriter and fan in this country are in agreement that McFail is the worst GM in all of sports.

I dunno... I've got this report here that says McHale is actually the BEST GM in all of sports. Some magazine that calls itself \"Forbes.\"

LOL...not with that idiot Childress and his stooge Tavaris Jackson running the show...

AP will leave anyways in 3 - 5 years

Vikings signed FB Thomas Tapeh.

Probably more for the fact that he went to the UofM than his skills. Wasn't he a special teamer on Philly last year?

Yeah and Childress is still fantazing about all the old worn out Philly players...

HE NEEDS TO GO!!!

What would make you say a thing like that? Generally franchise players in the NFL don't change teams. The RB position is somewhat the exception to that rule but I don't see the Vikings letting him hit the open market unless something bad happens.

Childress is far from a guru but the Vikings did have a great draft from top to bottom last year. McHale doesn't have anywhere near the work ethic or ability to be in the league of any NFL GM or Coach.

That is true pants...but remember this is the Vikings and what happened to Duante...what happened to Moss...both at their times were considered franchise players...

MN sports teams have a tendancy to move their best players...I just hope I am wrong in this case because All Day AP is AWESOME to watch...

Both guys were moved because of off the field issues. I sure hope AP continues to be the standup guy he appears he is right now. If 2008 goes like 2007 AP moves easily into the top 5 in marketable NFL players (maybe even number 2 behind Manning). And that is saying a lot given that he doesn't play QB and plays in \"fly over country\".

Moss, yes. Daunte, no. Daunte was moved because the year after Moss left he bacame an absolute joke of a quarterback. Want proof, watch film of the game against Cincinnati, where Deltha (mr. mediocre) O'Neal got 3 picks against Daunte.
