Minnesota Vikings News and Discussion – 31 May 2022

viking-4601896_1280

Happy Monday Tuesday, everyone!

I hope you all enjoyed the long holiday weekend. Kiddo and I were having some great luck on the river, so we spent most of our weekend fishing, with the exception of yesterday, when we were rained out.

Some tragic news yesterday when former Viking Jeff Gladney died in a car accident. From Kare-TV via MSN, Gladney’s former and current teammates react to the news. There aren’t a lot of verified details released yet, but as we hear more, we’ll try to keep you updated.

Wow, I haven’t heard much talk about the Twins lately, so that must mean they’re doing well. I checked the standings, and there they are sitting atop the division, link courtesy of Fox Sports.

There’s not a whole lot of other news out there at the moment, so have at it in the comments, and most of all, be cool to one another.

It doesn’t matter who the QB1 is. If they don’t fix the BFFFs, no SB…

You think Ezra doesn’t suck because he is better than turdbury and Dozier/Udoh. The fact is he sucks too, just not as bad. He’s bottom 30% which ain’t good.

Yeah that’s what I read too, sometime during covid I watched an old movie of his, Thunderheart I think, and then I realized he hadn’t made any movies in a while and thought maybe he died and I didn’t see that so I googled him and found he had throat surgeries and hadn’t worked since then other than a documentary he made a couple years ago.

They had a much worse offense to take over than we did….And having Hunter back gives the D a huge boost.

Agree, if they don’t win 9+ games i think it’ll be a huge disappointment especially with a decent schedule (as of now). I think the offense balls out, but there maybe some growing pains with defense. But if our offense can put up 30+ points a game it wont matter to much

I always remember taking general surgery call my first week at SHMC in Spokane as a transitional year intern. SHMC was on city wide trauma call and I got called at about 10 pm for a stabbing involving the right wrist of a nice guy, kinda sounded like wrong place at the wrong time. I roll into the ED and the nurse (I still remember her name she got kind of sweet on me as the year progressed undoubtedly my charm and good looks are hard to resist haha) says oh you might see the two gunshot victims first. I’m like wow what happened was it a gang thing and she said oh they came from opposite ends of downtown. Quick as a sprat I said and I quote: holy cow two separate shootings in a single evening would be statewide news in North Dakota. That got a good laugh and eyebrow raise from her.

Funny thing was I was out with my teacher (stepson) who has ran the river for fourteen years. He has never encountered FWP. While he was backing the trailer down the ramp and I was getting ready to get back on the trailer FWP gal pulled up and did a boat inspection. She said the same thing everyone I spoke to said – wow that’s a pretty new boat is that what the G3’s look like now – ahh the telltale of a boat without scratches or dents.

The lower Yellowstone is an old river. Below the Powder she is silty and murky. The great threats to boats are sandbars and hidden rocks in the late days of summer. I’m trying to learn how to read the river surface and stay in the channel.

Therefore, I have a flatbottom (jonboat) with a jet. Made in Wisconsin aluminum 18′ G3 CCJ DLX with the Yamaha 115/80. She’ll go 30 upstream and 40 downstream. Gotta watch the swing of the back end when pulling up to the bank (transducer on the transom plate) and the stone skipping on the surface of a lake performance in a tight turn. Big thing I need to practice is getting back on the trailer as you don’t just motor straight in like on a lake…gotta play the current.

Oh my…classic 80’s cinema full of homoerotic subterfuge. Are you saying that getting everyone in a bar joining you in a drunken chorus and following a gal into the ladies room wasn’t your go to pickup line?

the new movie makes fun of the first movie’s volleyball scene

it’s fairly hilarious, and refreshingly self-aware

Did he get his voice back? I saw a documentary a while ago about him and he could barely talk.

He barely talks in movie. They elude that he has throat cancer in the movie and he types on a computer. He does say like one or two sentences though in the movie

I think he actually can’t talk much in real life with throat cancer. But in the movie, they work in that he has cancer and cant talk. He only has one scene for like 5 min then that’s it. He types on a screen to communicate but does say like 2 sentences but his voice sounds like Yoda.

I read Tom Cruise wanted him in the movie and iceman lines are computer generated from his past movies.

He does…read today his diet much the same as Brady and I. No sugar, processed carbs or grains of any kind. Eats a strict anti inflammation diet. I cut out out sugar in my coffee and tea and never felt better.

It’s a very sobering place. Endless gravestones as far as the eye can see.

Dad had the option of going there but he ended up wanting to go to the State Veteran’s cemetery at Camp Ripley, where many of his National Guard buddies are buried. He’s in one of the cremation walls there.

On our field trips in W Germany we visited some WWI and WWII battlefield gravesites. Definitely one of those places where even 10 year old boys stop fucking around.

they had a pretty cool ceremony going on. i think i’d like to bring the kids down there next year.
i saw alot of grandparents with their grandchildren and i thought this is a place where kids should go and learn the importance of what generations before them have done and sacrificed.
i know my daughter thinks it’s pretty cool her great grandma was the oldest living marine before she passed away this past fall.

Everytime i bet on the Avs they lose. Everytime I bet on the other team playing Avs, the avs win.

I get that as they lost 2 at home but won all 3 games in St Louis. I doubt that happens like that again in any series left. Yeah, I’m on them tonight for sure. They are rested and while Oilers have baby jesus our D can keep up with them and their D/goalie is meh.

Mike Smith at 40 is always going to have a soft game or two, but then stand on his head for the rest. The series could easily go 7. I’d love to see NYR and EDM in the final.
