swede700 Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 Kirko is the guy who portrays himself as the "Aw Shucks" kinda guy, but at the same time is really ruthless when it comes to contract negotiation...and apparently, some take that as being two-faced or fraudulent...so it really irks them to no end. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course you didn’t read it. Nothing new there. Please, continue purposely misinterpreting every single thing a person says so you can attack them with your “points” that have little to no substance whatsoever. TL; DR version: Read as much as you write. It’ll be easier to discuss things with you. 3 hours ago, vike daddy said: "you're a poopyhead." Ok, so it’s more than one member here that doesn’t read. Especially if that’s the sentiment you took from what I said. 43 minutes ago, Captain Relax said: Why is this thread still so popular? I know that Cousins was a lightning rod to members of this forum as long as he was a Viking. But, he now plays for Atlanta. Why is he still a cause of friction on the forum? I assume it’s because the thread still exists? And many people including myself, were not a fan of him being here as long as he was anyway. I’m not on here too often but I don’t see where Cousins opinions are shared elsewhere (other threads). Seems to be just this thread — the thread titled for Kirk Cousins departure. Where else should Cousins matters be discussed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Differing opinions is fine. I get it. I guess I am ever hopeful that we all could present our opinions in as mature and respectful as possible. Maybe I am just old and out of touch...well, yes...I am old...but I truly work at being less volatile in my posts and not "doubling down" on my opinions. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could tell him to just say "you do you" since others seem that's an appropriate response. 🤣😉 Edited April 11 by swede700 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vikesfan89 Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 I don't blame Kirk for following the money but I don't think it's crazy to suggest that he could have been more flexible in the last couple contracts. Winning a Super Bowl would add a lot to his legacy and I would think would allow him to make more money past nfl career. Of course a Super Bowl win wouldn't be guaranteed even if he played for peanuts so maybe it wouldn't be worth it to take a discount in the hopes of winning a Super Bowl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirk will have earned a quarter of a billion dollars on his NFL contracts, let alone marketing sponsorships and investments. he won't need to ever have to work again, and i imagine he will devote his time to being with his family.

vike daddy Posted April 12 Author Share Posted April 12 maybe, just maybe... Kirk couldn't (or wouldn't) help the Vikings out by taking a lesser salary, but intentionally and publicly (because he ain't dumb) said how tampering had occurred so we would get a better draft slot. of course it didn't happen this way, but it's a slow day... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m misinterpreting what “poopyhead” means? That what you equated my post as. So yes, it’s a misinterpretation of what I was going for. Also, my original comment was a football opinion. Re-read what he replied to me with. I had reasons to respond in the manner that I did, so “personal insults” on my end is a bit extra. I made observations about how he posts and interacts with other users. Pretty sure that nothing I said was untrue in regards to that.
