who in the hell names their kid "Red" in the first place?

It is not his real first name. Get this, his real name is Billy Joe McCombs! No wonder he wants to be called Red. He owns a ton of car dealerships in Texas. Great! A car guy is our owner! Sorry if some of you are car salesmen!

No, back then I was hoping Tom Clancy would get the Vikings. Don't forget he had us in the Super Bowl in Clear and Present Danger! Wasn't easy to read about the team getting nuked though....

lol, Billy Joe? Wow, that just sounds like a perfect name for a used car salesman. Sorry, if some of you are car salesman or happen to be named Billy Joe.

I feel bad for car salesman! Next we'll have a telemarketing company owner as a GM!

Yup... Tom wanted the Vikes really bad, but I heard his soon to be EX wife heard what he was up to and her divorce lawyers created enough mayhem to scare off other investors. Bit@h!

Tom Benson (Saints owner) is a car guy, too...in San Antonio like Red as well...both own very talented, but underachieving NFL teams...coincidence???

Wow with a name like Billy Joe he must secretly be a girl and a Packers fan.

Yea, we just had a vote down here in Dallas (I live near Dallas) and it passed... Jones is going to be making quite a pretty penny for his new stadium.

Vikings getting nuked: just another example of the press hating the vikings. Ugh, it never ends. haha
