Vikings Discussion & Random Thoughts
This will be brief, the day got away from me and now it’s late and I’m tired. It’s the bye week anyway, we fans get to relax, too.
Vikings and NFL News
The Vikings and Justin Jefferson hosted 10 Make A Wish recipients for ‘Jets Day’, details from Vikings.com. Justin Jefferson does a lot of really good things, a genuinely good dude who I am happy to cheer for on and off the field.
Vikings.com highlights 6 major points about the 2025 Vikings during this week 6 bye week.
Sports Illustrated highlights 4 concerning Vikings statistics that must improve after the bye. Before I read it, I’m gonna guess that penalties are on the list.
The Bengals will start Joe Flacco at QB against the Packers on Sunday, per ESPN. Flacco just became a Bengal a few days ago, but I suppose he can’t really do much worse than Browning has done this year.
NFL.com has a week 6 injury report for all 15 NFL games this weekend.
The Titans released WR Treylon Burks after he came off injured reserve, per MSN. Burks was a first-round pick in 2022, whichever team he goes to next will be a better team, hopefully he can resurrect his career.
Media Selection
The Vegas shooting in 2017 has a LOT of unanswered questions, a data hacker discusses a lot of the odd circumstances surrounding the aftermath of the tragedy.
Thread Guidelines
- Keep politics to a minimum. We are adults, news happens, and we can talk about it. What we don’t want is to go down rabbit holes and turn a productive conversation into name calling and personal attacks.
- Be respectful and civil. You don’t need to agree with everyone, you also don’t need to make it personal. Attack the argument, not the poster.
- Keep the NSFW language/pictures to a minimum. We don’t want anyone getting in trouble at work for hanging out here.
- To summarize, behave like adults. Treat each other with respect, and things will be fine. Mods will take out content they feel is pushing the boundary. If you want to reach out about something, please do. We want to have robust discussions, that’s why we’re here, just be civil.
- Twitter sized version: Be cool to one another.
This is the ‘Lost Thread’, abandoned in time.
Might as well get the obligatory FTP post in early and save some time in morning.
Anyone check on Brad? He seems to be struggling with the ‘space time continuum’ lately.
3 pm seems a bit late for a thread posting, but I will never tell Brad how to do his job.
Just a guess, but he probably set this to post at 3 PM instead of 3 AM and here we are.
Ohhhh
FIRST??
You are always #1 in my book Surly!
