Hi, I am Gone Fishin’s son, and I will posting with you guys. My name is Eli, I am nine years old, and I am so excited to do this! I might do my own team in fantasy football this year, which will be fun. I have been a Vikings fan my whole life (all 9 years). My favorite Vikings memory was when I got to race Marcus Sherels.

I just wanted to introduce myself to everyone. Skol Vikings!

Nice to meet you Eli. You write very well in fact outstanding for your age – must be a good student, keep studying hard.
As I recall you’re also a baseball player. It’s a great game and a lot of fun. You’ll throw it better and hit it farther as you grow. Time is on your side.
All the best.

Welcome aboard dude!

Look forward to reading your posts and getting your perspective on our beloved Vikings!

Good luck in fantasy.

Also, I hear you and your dad like to play some Madden – very cool. I’m a Madden junkie and the game is a great way to learn the ins and outs of offensive and defensive philosophies and concepts. Keep playing!

Who would you like to see the Vikings draft in April?

Skol!!!!

Welcome aboard, kiddo!

Fun fact: Eli has been christened into Vikings fandom. His introductory (first of many) kicks to the groin by the Vikings came when he witnessed the 2022 playoff loss in person. It came down to the wire, as it always does when you’re a Vikings fan, and the kick was painful. Maybe not 1998 Gary Anderson painful or 2009 NFCCG painful, but seeing it in person made it pretty painful.

Thanks to NoDak for the tickets to that one. We really did have a blast, even if the ending sucked.

Welcome to the group, Eli. Enjoy the time you spend watching football with your dad, among many other things those are memories you will cherish throughout your life.

Good to meet you Eli, excited to hear your perspective on things and can’t wait to see you kick the butts of these “know it alls” in the fantasy football! Keep being awesome kid!

Welcome Aboard Eli,
You are kind of young to grab an oar (longship oar and Gopher oar).

Maybe you can be in charge of calling out the strokes for us.
We could often use some ‘adult supervision.

As the Vikings world turns at the start of the new season (basically 9 days into it), KAM has made some significant moves to bolster the defense, and remain capable on offense. Overall I’d give him a B to date, on his initial offseason actions. As to the rest of the Division, I’d probably give the Bears a C, the Lions a B+, and the Packers a B-.

Thus the most improved title to date, goes to the Lions. KAM has to put the finishing touches on the roster in the next several months, of course. I still think the defense is weak at Edge, D-line, and CB, even though they signed Shaquill Griffin to a one year deal.

Good morning Eli, welcome to the fray. Your father did a great job establishing this site for us, and we’re grateful to him.

First rule of blogging, most of it is baloney… grin.

Again, welcome and have fun! That’s what life is about, and I’m sure that is what your father built this site for!

SKOL!
