McCombs: Bad trade

In an interview with the Washington Post, former owner Red McCombs said he strongly opposed the Vikings' decision to trade quarterback Daunte Culpepper. The Vikings received a second-round pick from Miami, which they used to draft New Mexico offensive lineman Ryan Cook.

"I think they made a terrible mistake letting Daunte go and getting almost nothing for him," McCombs said. "I think he's one of the top five quarterbacks in the league. He's a good team guy. We brought him along and developed him. I don't think they should have traded him.

"But I do think [new starter] Brad Johnson will do a great job. He'll give them some good leadership."

As if McCombs did so much good for the team.
The cheap bass-turd.
Goes to show you McCombs is clueless.
Pep wanted out.
If Pep was such a "team guy" why didn't he do what was necessary to learn the new offense?
Why did he go to the media and whine?
Give me a breal Red.
Go run your car dealerships in San Antonio and stay out of the football realm.

he didnt really "diss" the vikings, he said what 90% of the "experts" and yes, most of the people on this board said.

he stated it was a mistake getting rid of a player of his calibur for only a 2nd round draft pick.

he also said

"But I do think [new starter] Brad Johnson will do a great job. He'll give them some good leadership."

i wouldnt quite say he was making fun of the vikings, just disagreeing with a choice

I dont mind these comments ... I think a lot of people think them and for now may have a reason to think them. At the same time ... I actually agree with the move. I like C-Pep elsewhere after making it clear he did not want to be here.
Also ... what is a breal :lol:

THE TOP RECEIVER...not top 3...THE TOP ONE!!!

And McCombs is a "never-was" in the realm of the NFL...he couldn't carry the Rooneys' hernia braces (the owner's equivalent of the jock strap...LOL)!

Tell Red to go sell some more cars and STFU.

Because most of the experts don't say what really happened and the truth is that we didn't trade Daunte the truth is that Daunte forced his way out of Minnesota!

Daunte may have started last night but he isn't moving well and I think by week 6 he will be limping and having serious trouble with that knee, his play last night was not good and he should have had 4 INT's not 2!
