Are we the new Raiders

**darkflood** · 08-16-2006, 10:15 PM

Just like with the Raiders of old ( or the new Bengals ), it seems like everytime we turn around there is some controversy surrounding the 'Vikes. Someone said once "Don't be that guy".

I don't want to be "that guy" anymore.

as of now, we are the raiders of the NFC.
i rememer the titans also had their moment of fame.
hopefully the whole krob thing will pass and they will start acting like professionals.

We don't have anyone who has been arrested 4 times in the offseason...ahem BENGALS.

Apparently I didn't explain enough in the origanal post (i_bleed_purple got it though

). It's not about the arrests or who gets convicted of what, it's the fact that most of what you read on the national sites is derogatory towards the Vikings. Tice was never "arrested", but it's bad on the team. Like when everything the Raiders did was bad...remember???

Im going going in another direction.Im not talking about arrests or
embarrasments but i think we look like the eagles (in the sense that we could have a good d and the fact that our recievers pretty much suck so far) Although w williamson might yet emerge as a got to guy
