Vikings Discussion & Random Thoughts
The big news in Vikings land is that Kyler Murray is coming to town. The former Cardinals QB is hoping to find a fresh start with the Vikings, where he will compete with J.J. McCarthy for the starting gig. This will be a great opportunity for the QB, and it will only help the team to have better competition, hopefully coaxing the best out of both quarterbacks. Murray signed a one-year deal for the vet minimutm of ~ $1.2 million, so if KOC thinks he can get something out of Murray, it’s well worth a shot.

Vikings and NFL News
As mentioned above, the Vikings signed Kyler Murray to a one-year contract, details from Vikings.com. Also, a Vikings 2026 free agent tracker.
The Star-Tribune has thoughts on the upcoming camp battle between Kyler Murray and J.J. McCarthy.
Falcons DE James Pearce, a 2025 first round pick and a finalist for the AP 2025 NFC defensive rookie of the year, was charged with three felonies and a misdemeanor, per NFL.com. The charges stem from a February 7 incident between Pearce and his girlfriend, a WNBA player. Pearce chased the woman, struck her car with his car, refused to obey police, then intentionally ran over a police officer in an attempt to get away. He then crashed his car and tried to flee on foot. Yikes. Moral of the story: don’t date WNBA players.
At Yahoo Sports’ NFL update, they talk about Trey Hendrickson signing with the Ravens, the Murray deal, and more.

USA Baseball beat the Dominican Republic 2-1 to advance to the finals of the World Baseball Classic.
It was a small town and the patrolman was making his evening rounds As he was checking a used car lot, he came upon two little old ladies sitting in a used car.
He stopped and asked them if they were stealing the car. They said “Heavens no, we bought it.”
He said, “Then why don’t you drive it away”.
Each of the women said “We can’t drive”.
The officer momentarily shook his head and then asked “Then why did you buy it?”
They answered, “We heard if we bought a car here, we’d get screwed, so we’re just waiting.
I agree with this…
Is it even possible to rotate air in your tires??
Saw this. It’s spot on.
”It is the soldier, not the reporter, who has given us freedom of the press. It is the soldier, not the poet, who has given us freedom of speech. It is the soldier, not the campus organizer, who has given us the freedom to demonstrate. It is the soldier, who salutes the flag, who serves beneath the flag, and whose coffin is draped by the flag, who allows the protester to burn the flag.”
This is a quote by Charles M. Province US Army veteran and founder of the George S Patton historical Society
So true, and so ignored by a lot of the called “educated”
The Left/Woke/Dims do not believe this to be true.
But then they don’t believe in a lot of things that are true.
Former KGB defector, Yuri Bezmenov told us that you don’t destroy a country with bombs.
You demoralize it. You rewrite the history and teach people to feel ashamed of their own country.
Once that happens, people stop defending it.
You know, like the liberals and mainstream media do 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year. Oh yeah, and the Mayor of New York.
We’re now just inside 6 months till the first week of the regular season for 2026…
Logical…
The guards have guns in prison, but only in elevated positions or on escorts outside of the prison like to hospitals or to court.
I think they were referring to inmates in prison… but yeah…
Gotta love Reagan…
Hmmmmm…
He and Thieneman 6′, 201, 9.66 RAS out of Oregon are the other two first round Safety’s behind Caleb Downs of The Ohio State U who is a top 5 prospect.
Interestingly enough, I’ve seen this guys height listed at 6’1″, 6’3.5″, and 6’4″
The NFL Combine results show him at 6′ 3.5″.

Well I like DB’s that are over 6 feet and 200 lbs if they can run fast enough, and cover well. There are a number of big receivers and TE’s in the league now that are a handful for a 5’9″ 165 lb DB.
Agreed, all else being equal, bigger is better.
Happy Ides of March BTW.
Thanks??
Maybe he’ll have a lapse…
I can relate…
Great job? OR…
Wonder what they are offering or what we are asking for him?
We would still need a QB2 for Murray if JJ (QB) is traded away.
A QB1 would be even nicer
Kirko could be the back up…….
🤪
No way… first, it would be crazy if the Vikings sent him packing after all the hype. Second, what do the teams inquiring about him see in him? This would be a really weird outcome if they traded him.
Morning skolhomers. Woke up to a foot of snow on the ground, ick. Still snowing and blowing here in west central Wisconsin. I see I’ve got 2 foot snow drifts in front of my garage doors. Oh well, we knew it was coming, so my plow is on the 4-wheeler ready for duty. Gonna finish my coffee and tackle old man winter once again.
Enjoy??
Never lived anywhere a snowplow/blower made sense. Military housing is temporary so paying for one didn’t seem smart.
Yes I am a soft, weak, SoCal boy who would never survive the winters in the north.
I’ve never owned a snowblower. My old residence was small enough that I could shovel everything. Now I have way more and need to have a plow. I’d die if I tried to snowblow my property now.
We had about 20 inches this morning. It is starting to snow again. Probably another 2-4 inches tonight. The neighbor had to come down with his small bulldozer as he got his pickup truck stuck.
Yes, I miscalculated. Once I went outside to clean up, I realized it was way more. 20 inches of snow and blowing gave me 4 foot snow drifts. My brother is my neighbor and he came over with his bobcat skid steer and helped me out. My 4-wheeler could not push it in spots.
Italy won and Japan lost yesterday in the World Baseball Classic. Italy and Venezuela will play for a spot in the finals and the USA will play the Dominican Republic for the other finals spot.
Japan had quite the meltdown and Italy continues to surprise and play well.
And no Harrison Smith…. Interesting…
I think he’s coming back…..
Player-Coach??
I think he is as well.
They are just working out what role and pay.
Reduced role, vet minimum
He never saw it coming…
‘He never saw it coming’
Very Punny.
And…
Laughing…
Why she is still in this country is shocking.
Why she is still in Congress is unreal.
Agree
Another reason to dislike Canada.
Sounds about right.
Today is 3.14.26
or 3.14 – pi day.
in honor of that, I’ll be smoking some pot. Which will make me pie-eyed.
Nephew rolling over later. He’s 13. He’s a Vikings hater. But he’s a bandwagon fan – his favorite team is Seattle (last year it was Philly, but only after they beat his last favorite team – Kansas City – in the Owl) he LOVES the Darnold dynamic (which legit stings) and mocks me endlessly. I love him, but I also want to drown him.
When I get to hang out with this little prick, we play Madden. He’s never beaten me – but he’s getting better, fast. He’s going to roll with Seattle & Darn Old Sam. I only play with Minny when we play.
This isn’t PS5 – he doesn’t have one, but I do. But he does have a PS4, which I also have. So we’ll be rocking Madden 25 when we play. I spent a good chunk of last night moving players around and setting up the rosters to reflect the current teams as best I could. I used roster data from Madden 26 to make adjustments.
I don’t know how things will play out with Kyler Murray in real life but I know how this game will go. I’ll move the pocket a lot to create clear throwing lanes, relying on Murray’s speed to buy time and if I see daylight I’ll move the chains with his legs. Heavy dose of Jets & Addison – he’ll come after me early and I’ll get plenty of 1:1 looks that I can burn with slants and crossers, the occasional screens. He’ll back off and I’ll ground and pound with Jones/Mason until he starts to creep the box – then the PA game for a shot play or two. Scoring points won’t be a problem.
He loves to throw deep and will try that early and often. I’ll pick my spots and come after him with Dallas off the edge. If I can build a two score lead I’ll switch to Hitman and play center field and create chaos near the LOS. He’s gotten better so I expect a better effort. I still intend on trouncing him, all the while making him sit in full view of my authentic Riddell Speed Flex Vikings helmet.
His biological father is a POS – woman beater, thief, idiot, shitty card player. But his real dad is Sam – my brother in law. And everything that’s gone on has taken its toll on my nephew as well. So we don’t just play Madden. We talk about life stuff. Girls. Guns. Kid loves to find antiques, junk stuff. Wears Tony Llama boots and loves to hunt, fish, get dirty. Tough kid.
I don’t have children – wasn’t in the cards for me. So he’s the closest I’ll get to a son, aside from Goose (and that dog ain’t going to college) so it’s nice to occasionally get to be the fun uncle. I usually have to be the heavy – a role I was born for – but today I get to be the buddy, the pal.
So today – after I whip his ass in Madden and after we get some pizza and after I have him move some boxes to my basement (young legs, strong back, I’m taking advantage of) I’m going to tell him to go to the garage and get the storage tote in the corner to take home for his mother to open tomorrow – it’s sealed pretty good – and when they open it they’ll find: a PS5 bundle. System, controllers, games (Madden/NCAA/Call of Duty and Grand Theft Auto) and a 1 year PlayStation network subscription.
It’s the slow burn of things I love the most. By this time tomorrow he’ll likely be in tears, overwhelmed and not expecting it. Best part – Monday starts spring break – he’s off the whole week.
Happy Saturday yall….
fight nice
Skol
🔨 🔨 🔨
Sounds like a great day.
Good luck for the game although it doesn’t sound like you will need it.
you are a very good man, and I can promise your nephew will never forget this.
Toke away my brother! I will be hitting my drug of choice, whiskey, a little later.
Maybe? Possibly?
0 to 78
The most snow I ever had to shovel was 18 inches in Colorado Spring, Ft Carson to be exact. It was not something I wanted to do often but buying snow blowers while living in temporary military housing is suboptimal.
Sounds about right.
Murray to all of us…..
Lololololololololol
Good morning, SKOL!
FTP!
Is it time to get on the Kyler Murray hype train?
I’m not on the Murray hype train, but I think he will have a good season. I don’t think he’ll suck.
Not much to get hyped about.
Maybe KOC can make him taller.
Just checking to see if it’s safe to come back to Skoloholics yet. How’s everyone doing after yesterday’s…umm…delightful conversation?
Mornin… all is well. Kyler Murray hasn’t been cut yet.
We all know he’s going to do just enough to get a big extension after this year.
I just feel bad for Jets.
Salient point. If he had had Cousins throwing the ball to him all this time he would be setting big time records. Dobbs, Mullens, Hall, Darnold, Wentz, McCarthy, and Brosmer. Quite the list there. Now Murray.
Going through eight QB’s in three seasons isn’t helpful.
lol
So this is a real story, crazy as it sounds. They did apprehend the shooter though. So the community is safe.
Damn
USA beats the Cunucks in WBC 5-3 to advance to the semi-finals vs The Dominican Republic.
Murray brings only mobility as a positive. He is Deputy Dinkdunk, 95% of his passes are less than 5 yards, many are behind the LOS requiring the receiver to get yards.
Our WRs will be frustrated and disappointed. Wasting another year of JJs prime.
Yeah. I’m not optimistic about the outcome.
He’s a cheap one year rental.
This is exactly what I’m afraid of.
I wish lifer were around to weigh in on the Muray signing
As a DEI hire, he would love it.
He did have solid football takes though.
As a mentally and emotionally unstable TDS sufferer there is no telling what he would think or if he would be honest about saying it.
False, he hates Murray
Treadwell still in the mix…
He will break out any time now.
That’s what I was thinking… grin.
It’s amazing that he is still in the league. He’s made a long career for himself.
It is, but he was expected to be a super star when he came out. Just never quite got there.
Talk about kicking the cap can down the road…
It seems to be a very short kick.
Smells like desperation.
Crazy
But the cap number goes up every year.
Its what every team does.
You are way too emotionally invested in the cap.
From claiming the Vikings are in dire straits, and other issues, you don’t understand the NFL salary cap.
You are way wrong about me as usual. I’m never emotional about anything, unlike you. That said, an $84.49M hit for one player against the cap is gargantuan.
They reportedly will be signing him to an extension which will change it and push it out even further
You are not as smart as you claim to be.
Claiming military combat is equivalent or similar to an NFL roster is just stupid.
You are not smarter or better than anybody else on this blog.
You are the same as the rest of us.
Please stop with your self absorbed and self proclaimed superiority.
I never claimed to be smart so here you are lying on me again… and of course you’re wrong again, so you’re on quite a roll today.
It shouldn’t matter if you are smart or not. It shouldn’t matter if your comments are dead wrong or brilliant.
Either way, you should not be personally attacked.
Thanks JR… you’re right, but there are a few folks here that clearly take me personally and are compelled to attack me. That fact is abundantly clear to all though. Everyone sees they are just personally and emotionally incensed with me.
It’s really not me and no thanks necessary.
This is a rule up top, the only rule here.
TREAT EACH OTHER WITH RESPECt.
True, but I still appreciate you highlighting it…
I prefer to ‘treat each other with the respect they deserve’. I can ‘respectfully’ ignore people when necessary.
Wow – simply amazing.
“very emotionally invested”
“self proclaimed expert”
“stop with your self absorbed and self proclaimed superiority’
Are you some kind of amateur psychiatrist?
He who “judges” feels they are superior to those they judge.
Yeah… this is what you get on a blog on the internet. Some guy attacking you and saying completely off the wall shit.
So this was brought up briefly yesterday but with no details.
Allen’s, DT new contract with the Bungals saves us Cap Space because of his ‘offset language’ in his Viking contract. So it looks like we will get $11.2M cap space after 1 June, although we might be able to use it sooner.
‘Whether Minnesota gets to take advantage of this newfound spending money now or after June 1st is currently unknown’
More Cap Space for us is a good thing.
https://thevikingage.com/minnesota-vikings-jonathan-allen-signs-cincinnati-bengals
Seems accurate.
The Murray signing shows that the Vikings will be frugal with FA signings.
Found the song Kyler plays every morning when he wakes up.
So KOC did his best to protect McCarthy psyche as they made the move to get Murray. He said he spoke to McCarthy “this week” which would have been before the move, trying to make sure he was forewarned, and forearmed. Prepare the the young guy for what was coming. So nice of KOC.
“soooo yeahh….we’ll pretend you are going to be “competition” for murray but you suck so it will be his job to lose in about a week”
The kinder, gentler NFL. “We’re bringing in another guy, but we still believe in you”.
‘Bringing in another guy’ should not an issue in the NFL or any other sport. Guys are brought in constantly, heck the NFL stands for ‘Not For Long’.
Players can’t be so soft as to be threatened by competition, heck as that is the whole point of the league/sport.
Especially when JJ (QB) has been injured so many times and has yet to prove he is worthy of starting. If he is that much of a snowflake, if his ego is so fragile, then he won’t make it long term anyway.
I agree. Coddling players in a sport that requires immense toughness doesn’t make any sense to me.
Ego has always been an issue in pro sports
Yes and catering to those egos seldom ends well.
Kirk sure as hell didn’t like any valid competition on the roster when he was here.
Bullshit. Cousins said openly he had to earn his spot on the roster every single day. If you don’t play well, you get replaced.
“If I would have known they were going to draft a QB high, I wouldn’t have signed here.”
Yet he was still the starter and playing well until week 10 when the Saints wrecked his arm. Then what happened? The coach named Penix the starter the next season with no QB competition at all. So Cousins was right. Nothing was ever handed to him, and he had to earn it every day.
Sean Mannion.
Hot Garbage backup.
Yeah? He’s the OC for the Eagles now. He was an awesome guy to go over play calls, and discuss the game plan. He was definitely that set of eyes that helped Cousins be better. So, he was an awesome selection as the back-up. They teamed up well.
But he couldn’t play football.
Plenty of coaches out there who can’t play the game.
Which is why Kirko wanted a clipboard holder as his backup.
Kirko hates true competition.
Yeah… you remind me of RGIII…
Griffin said on a Bleacher Report show that Kellen Mond’s move to Minnesota proves Cousins’ grip on the Vikings starting job is tenuous.
“Yeah, I can tell you that No. 8 in Minnesota is not real happy right now,” Griffin said. “Because Kellon Mond represents exactly what he doesn’t do well. Kellon Mond is the big, physical quarterback. He can run it, throw it all over the field, and I don’t think that’s something that No. 8 is able to do in Cousins in Minnesota. But, I think that’s what the coaching staff and administration is looking for.”
Yeah…
Or anywhere. Even complained about Penix getting drafted.
Bullshit. He never complained. When asked after the season, he said he probably wouldn’t have come to Atlanta, knowing they were drafting Penix. Morris wanted Penix, and it was a signal that they weren’t interested in Cousins, even after giving him a 4 year $180M contract. Cousins never complained and in fact spent a lot of time mentoring Penix and helping him. So, no, Cousins didn’t complain. That’s a lie.
Honestly, who would? Nobody in their right mind. That being said, I think competition is healthy for the team.
Correct.
But a self proclaimed expert says otherwise.
Kirko is a self absorbed phony imo.
Always has been.
And as usual, you’re wrong…
I don’t blame KOC for talking with him. That’s only wise as a coach. It doesn’t mean he thinks McCarthy is weak, he just tries to be a nice coach for everybody.
I trained men for combat. I was hard as shit on them. If they weren’t good enough, they were gone. I didn’t have the time, or the inclination to be understanding. Probably why I look at KOC sideways on this.
Good thing these Vikings aren’t going to be storming the beaches of England.
‘beaches of England’
We are going to war against England?
I know that they are going ultra woke but it seems much easier to just cut them loose than to ‘storm their beaches’.
Just saying the current Minnesota Vikings don’t have to go to war, so maybe not treating them like soldiers doesn’t matter.

Well as you say it is the “Minnesota” Vikings. Seems like a kinder and gentler group up there in the Minneapolis area.
Soft is good.
Channeling blushing in animal house
Nice try Bow. Coddling men is a bad plan and you know it.
Thats right, ‘Coddling’ is only for women, and children (but not those who are going to grow up as men) and for people who identify as ‘not men’.
#grin
Heck that is his job as a HC, to communicate with his players. If he didn’t he should be fired for incompetence ala Zim at the end.
I don’t even mind of he wants to spin the conversation to prop up the player, that is just spin for public consumption. No one knows but the two of them what was actually said.
Since we took hockey from them, are the snow Mexicans going to take baseball today?
It would be somewhat fitting.
We are having some delightful spring weather here today and this weekend. Today the wind is howling with gusts up to 55 mph. Starting Saturday evening through Sunday night, we are going to have a major winter storm. The local tv station is saying up to 18 inches of snow. The local NOAA site says up to 30 inches. I’m hoping that whoever is forecasting for NOAA is on crack.
30 inches of snow would be insane
I’ve kind of noticed that the one guy on the NOAA site is very generous with snowfall totals. I’m expecting that whoever works days will be on soon and will revise that back down hopefully closer to the WEAU totals of 18 or less.
We went from a forecast of 12-18 inches down to 7-10 inches
According to WEAU, at least for around here, the thickest band will be from a northern line by Balsam Lake, Chetek, Ladysmith down to a southern line by Arcadia, Neillsville. I forget where you said you are from, but I’m assuming you are not in that range then.
Yeah that’ll be north of us a bit
We are fairly close to the southern part of that band of snow, so I’m hoping the system drifts north and we get in that 6-10 inch band.
Now they are saying 15 to 27.
It was in the 60s yesterday, woke up to about 4 inches of snow that is supposed to keep falling until Sunday. Wednesday and Thursday are supposed to be in the 80s.
At least it will melt fast.
Meh
My twisted sense of humor made me select Max Brosmer in the poll up top.
Atta boy!
Saw this one at the card shop the other day.
Only $10,000.
Only $10k? You should buy 2.
I would have, but they only had one.
I’m not sure Justin Jefferson should be too excited about Kyler. They were only two 1,000 yard receiving seasons for a WR with Kyler as QB.
From AI:
Jefferson will carry him to success
If anything, with this signing we have a whole season of new jokes to tap into.
We are going to hear this a lot this year from our new qb.
That’s the best thing about this signing. No matter if the Vikes will suck or not, we’ll have tons of midget jokes going. Should be fun.
I don’t know if this is real, but it looks like he’s missing his kneecap
i think the murray signing all but shows us what KOC thinks of JJ….
i don’t think KOC ever wanted JJ….i think it was all KAM and even if i’m wrong and that’s not true that’s the narrative i’m going to believe to keep me liking KOC and disliking KAM…
murray will have really fun moments and really frustrating moments. I think we’ll have more fun moments with him than we will with JJ…
i don’t hate JJ, but murray is better and he’s our starter, so i am on board and ready to have my heart broken once again!
JJ will end up in
San DiegoLos Angeles as the future replacement for Herbert. Spend a year as the backup, end up winning a championship with his favorite coach, and we will have the midget on a long-term supremely disappointing player-friendly contract and wallow in average forever….i am pretty sure that is from the chair model episode, which is hilarioussssssssssssssssss
She’s dead
🎶 this’ll be the day that I die….. 🎶
I’m still pissed, can’t remember if the office was on primer or amerzon but we were about halfway through season 3 watching episodes every other night or so and the streaming service pulled it. So I can never know which episode would be next to watch.
Pretty sure it’s on PeepeeCock
KOC was 100% on board. I 100% guarantee it.
‘I 100% guarantee it.’
Money back??
If he wasn’t fully backing it he should get an Oscar for his performance, either that or go into politics.
I’m starting to think that with the Murray signing.
That’s what KOC wants you to think.
I find it hard to imagine that KOC had no input on McFragile.
KOC is now on the hot seat.
So we will see how this plays out. He can’t hide.
Personally, I think KOC is over his skis.
My feelings on the Murray signing: it is something to watch. It will have its amusing moments. Murray will be more fun than Nine.
I’m not sure why watching someone write their name is something to watch, but to each his own
Well Plaid Sir.
No kink shaming!
The poll up top is really kind of irrelevant, if they’d signed someone like Minshew, tyrod Taylor, or Jimmy g, it would be a question but the Vikings signed Murray to be the starter this year and potentially longer, the JJ experience is likely all but over unless the short stack has a major injury and JJ comes in and plays really well, which could happen. Also, Brosmer isn’t likely even on the active roster next year, let alone a candidate to start, lol.
Yep, baring injury, the JJ era is over.
I think this just lets KOC hedge his bets a little bit more with the most talented free agent QB. It affords him more time to prep JJM, but it’s not a good sign that he needs more than 2 seasons of that, though he is young.
jj would be much further along if he could stay on the field, that’s a big issue
Very true
Kyler is talented enough, and will make highlight reel plays, for us to make playoffs. That being so, and after the Darnold fiasco, no way they let him go.
Think JJ’s only chance is if Kyler gets hurt and JJ comes in and ‘really’ shines – and he doesn’t get hurt again.
Kyler getting hurt is a very likely thing, so it could happen
And JJ getting hurt is even more likely.
So both will end up hurt and we get to watch Brosmer again
Better than Mannion or Shawn Hill.
Maybe not.
Mannion yes, hill no
I think it’s a matter of trying to keep his job, my guess is he’s fired if the Vikings miss the playoffs again. I think he sees Murray as the best chance to accomplish that.
That too, for sure
I agree with this take. I think JJ will see the field either when Murry gets injured behind another crappy O line, or he sucks so bad that JJ wins the job outright.
We have to remember that AZ paid this guy over 35 mil to sit on the bench last year.
The poll should be, how many games to you think Murray starts this season?
I think 5
My fear is that Murry shows just enough for the Vikings to be scared of another “Sam WInz Super Bowl” type scenario (even though it was the Seattle Defense and Run game ) and the VIkings super overpay for another team’s cast off. again. Like the last 10 years.
Tired of that.
Roll with JJ and draft the QBOTF every year until you find one.
Regarding the crappy oline, it could be decent if darrisaw and O’Neill can stay healthy, Jackson missed a couple games last year but did not suck, especially for a rookie, like he didn’t even strip the ball from his own QB, fries was solid and didn’t get hurt. Kelly was very good the few games he played but unfortunately kept getting concussed. Four sports are set, I’m curious what they do at center.
C = Jurgens? Draft?
Jurgens, or Brandel, who filled in when both Kelly and jurgens were hurt. Not much left in the FA market. It’s likely internal starter or a rookie.
Let’s just hope whoever it is won’t be a sieve.
Or a turnstile, or a tackling dummy.
Should have brought back Kyle Sloter
Hello new guy!
SLOTERGOAT!!
Hi Rob!
Hi Surly
^This^
Indeed. SLOTERGOAT!!!
Hi Rob!
Looking back, that was the start of the downward trajectory in my Vikings pessimism.
RIP your Sloter jersey, the game in Denver was fun though
Yes it was. Perfect day for a game. I should’ve ran down to the bottom of the bleachers and tried to get his attention, maybe he’d have signed the jersey.
I blame Ponder.
Unless J.J. wins the spot.
Yeah, there’s no way something crazy could happen like McFragile™ severing his tibialis anterior tendon kicking open a door and Murray stepping in a phantom pothole on the practice field and dissociating his femur from his acetabulum. Can you even imagine such a thing happening in the preseason?
‘Can you even imagine such a thing happening in the preseason?’
It is unpossible!
If Murray stepped in a pothole he wouldn’t be able to get out.

How are we feeling about the signing this morning?
Personally, I’m finding myself a little short on words.
I don’t see him bringing the Vikings to new heights, I think they may make the playoffs but fall short of expectations.
My daughter is going to a midget wrestling thing here in rural Delaware.
I think this is some sort of sign from GOD.
Is mjolnir hosting it?
Don’t know.
He might be the investor behind it all.
The thought of a big tall long haired stoner tossing midgets around just cracks me up
Lol.
been rocking a shaved head for 20+…..
Even better, a shaved head big tall guy tossing around midgets
Kyler Murray is 5’10” tall and the Vikings will pay him 1.3 million this season. That’s 18.5k per inch.
LOL….
BTW, good to have you and your snark back at Skoloholics on a regular basis.
lol, I try, I just hope people don’t take me too seriously
Never have.
