Coach Brad Childress said at his news conference today that he anticaptes Tarvaris Jackson will be healthy enough to start at quarterback when the Vikings resume play on Oct. 14 at Chicago......

Q: So it is safe to say if Taylor is not healthy that Peterson will not be returning kicks?

A: YouÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â€šÂ¬Ã¢â€žÂ¢ll have to draw those conclusions based on the first four games. You had a few logic classes I know somewhere out in New Jersey.

The Chiller cracks me up.
;D

Q: In general, is that a tough block for a tight end to make?
A: It is, but you know what, it was made more than you think it was made during the course of the day.

Yes it was, but that one hurt.

This is my favorite.

"I think we got some plays out of Sidney Rice, which is nice to get and encouraging to get some plays out of those young guys."

I do not know about you guys but I rarely see Rice on the field and when he is he is making plays. START HIM!

Childress reminds me of a
politition. Always beating around the bush. Evading the questions. Has too dry of a sense of humor for me. I wish just once hed say, 'we had a horrible game today. everyone uneracheived. we played the fudgepackers at home, and couldnt get up for the game. the Oline and pass rush D will have extra practices this week.' Or something like that.

Reporter to Childress:
So how do you think the Vikings played today?

Chilly:
Well you know, they went out there and did what players do, the sky was blue and the seats were orange, but you know what, you just have to take it for what it is.
The California raisins never played football did they?
I like to use them as examples.
