Honeymoon is going great, guys! 

Rick Sosa is also a hack. Never take anything he says seriously. He's just a guy that desperately wants to be relevant in the Vikings twitter community.

Kevin Stefanski also said that defensive end Dalvin Tomlinson needs to have his knee scoped. Tomlinson is on the physically unable to perform list.

Stefanski also said at his press conference that he would be calling offensive plays this year.

sometimes you're a wee bit on the... gossipy side... of things.

 

It’s training camp season in the NFL and that means it is also training camp fight season.

The first one caught on video came in Houston on Wednesday afternoon. Accounts from the session indicate that tight end Dalton Schultz got a little heated after contact by defensive back Jimmie Ward on wide receiver Stefon Diggs. Video on social media then shows cornerback Derek Stingley knock Schultz to the ground as he’s walking away and many players from both sides of the ball came together for a brief scuffle.

Things appeared to settle down quickly from there and it doesn’t seem like anything that will be an ongoing concern for the team.

I was joking. This "fights" are pretty common this time of year.

If New England's regular season began tomorrow, it seems like KJ Osborn would be one of the team's two starting wide receivers. along with JuJu Smith-Schuster. At least, this is how the Patriots are currently making it seem by having Osborn and Smith-Schuster work with the first-team offense in practice this summer.

It's only the first week of training camp for New England, so things can certainly change as it gets closer to the regular season. The Patriots also have a pair of rookie wide receivers in Ja'Lynn Polk and Javon Baker who are talented enough to earn a starting job by the time Week 1 gets here.

But for now, Osborn is getting first-team reps with New England's offense, and he might finally get to show whether or not he can be more than just a No. 3 receiver in the NFL.

Apparently, they like bringing in their old LBs for all kinds of front office positions.  When do they bring back Gerald Hodges to be director of player education?

This pictures cuts deep, man. Really really deep. 

Honestly I find the 2016 season to be by far the most depressing as a Vikings fan. 

I can't single out one year...but 2016 isn't even close to the top.  1984 and 2001 were, by far, the worst.  1984 was the Les Steckel year and 2001 was the death of Korey Stringer, which just cast a pall over that team that carried over throughout the season.
