mtnvik and smegma, thanks for the nice links. Enjoyed the reads....

Thanks for the links.

couple nice tidbits from an interview with Percy:

Harvin also dismissed the notion the Vikings are rebuilding -- "We don't use that word around here," he said -- and praised the evolution of coordinator Bill Musgrave's offense, which is being built around second-year quarterback Christian Ponder.

"I'm liking it," Harvin said. "I liked the steps we took. Last year, I felt we started improving towards the end of the year. We're just building from that last year. Christian has gotten head over heels better than last year.

Just throwing it out there, take it any way you want. At least he's saying the right things, whether he believes it or not.

Burton the All pro who can't stay healthy. Man everyone loves the kid but...he is always hurt.

Yay for Viking football!!!!

"I'm liking it," Harvin said. "I liked the steps we took. Last year, I felt we started improving towards the end of the year. We're just building from that last year. Christian has gotten head over heels better than last year.

Let's hope he's right, it's true & it's not media speak.

We've heard great things coming out of TC here before only to have it being dismissed by fans here as players being versed into what to say to the media.
