MANKATO, Minn. — Zygi Wilf doesn't duck a challenge.

After Vikings athletic trainer Eric Sugarman recently questioned whether the team's owner could field a single punt from Chris Kluwe, Wilf stepped into the end zone minutes before the afternoon practice at Minnesota State Mankato to prove his point....

Thanks for the read my friend.


By the way, when was the last time I mentioned how much I like this Ownership group?
They have a clue when it comes to putting a quality product on the field.

Sound leadership in the FO that knows how to find the talent the coaches need, the smarts to work within the CAP to field the best talent they can find and a commitment to consistency at all levels.

That my friends is how you build a team that will be competitive for years to come and not just a win now kindof organization we seem to see in the league these days.

Heres to a long and storied period under our owner and his partners.
;D

"You just can't picture the Minnesota Vikings anywhere else," he said. "The tradition precedes them and we'll continue and grow and build on that. I just want to make sure that the fans know that."

That's good to hear Zygi!

It all starts at the top, and we have a excellent Front Office. You can see things coming together. And yes Zygi...."The Time Is Now".

He must have not checked PP.O before that statement or he would have known that it will take a few more years to get good enough to contend.

Even though the Vikings generate the lowest revenue in the NFL,

how depressing.
Thats why they better get a new CBA hammered out soon.

Umm - the stadium is sold out and has been for years.

The problem is the crappy lease they have with the MSC that allows for the slimmest of revenue streams for the Vikings from the "extra" stuff - signage, lux boxes, parking, etc.

=Z=

Still saying all the right things!!


Bring home a Lombardi Trophy, and the stadium will follow
;D ;D
