Minnesota Vikings News & Discussion: 16 Sep 2022

BudGrant.jpeg

It’s finally Friday, everyone, and welcome to Skoloholics! Join us as we discuss the latest Minnesota Vikings news, Minnesota Vikings updates, news from around the NFL, and virtually any other topic. On this site, the real action is in the comments, so if you haven’t checked out the comments section yet, you should join us! This is the open thread, which is……open. Therefore, you will see discussion of nearly ANY topic here.

It should be a pretty relaxing football weekend, since the Vikings don’t play until Monday. I suppose I’ll keep up to speed on the games that affect my fantasy team on my phone, because I’ll be spending a lot of time fishing on Sunday. It’s supposed to rain here all day Saturday. Gotta get all the open water fishing in that I can now, because, as much as I hate to say it, the snow could start flying any day now. Blech.

From the St. Paul-Pioneer Press, Jalen Reagor doesn’t deny having thoughts of revenge playing against his old team on Monday.

Lewis Cine is excited to make his debut against the Eagles on Monday, according to SI.com.

Video of the Day:

With the game against Philly upcoming, I can’t think of a better video to play than this one. This is the great Bill Burr sharing his thoughts on Philadelphia. WARNING: NSFW LANGUAGE!!!!

YO! Skolly….did you have this tidbit in your spreads article…?

Vikings 23, Eagles 20 — John Breech, CBS Sports
I was so impressed with the Vikings in Week 1 that I’ve already decided that I won’t be picking against them for the rest of the month, so obviously, that means I have to take them here. Also, I can’t pick the Eagles because this is Week 2 and they burn me every year in Week 2. I’m not even kidding. The Eagles are somehow 0-5 both straight up and against the spread in Week 2 over the past five years. Maybe they should start asking to get their bye in Week 2.

Fun day on here ya’ll. We get more politically sussed out here in a day than they do in a month in DC. Fire all them sons a bitches and lets start over.

Took 4 trips for a couple hrs each down to the beach today from the condo. Absolutely a gorgeous day. Hunted for shells, found a few decent ones below, also 2 big conch shells buried in the sand but they still had the shell clam alive in them so I carried them out to deeper water instead of keeping them.

Did a lot of body surfing with some good 3 to 4 foot waves. Always a blast. Saw some 4 foot wide brown sting rays in the shallows. Big MF’ers with 3 foot stingers. Kinda freaky swimming around with them but they’re cool as long as you don’t step on them.

What they did was wrong but the sentences seem excessive for trespassing. The thing that bothers me the most is the prosecution is arbitrary and capricious. If they would prosecute with the same zeal everyone who trespassed on a federal building during the riots I would have no issues with it.

Wow nice round Skolly! That’s they way to play. I know my main issues are off the tee and putting as of late. I did find an interesting resource on making better contact being the key to everything, off the tee, irons and wedges. I’m going to take the course it costs $50 and guarantees it will improve your game. I’ll let ya know.

My goal is to enjoy each and every round. I use to be very competitive, but I am worried taking golf seriously will ruin the game for me. I golf with a friend who breaks 80 nearly every round. He’s in his seventies and just nice and consistent. His bad shots are my good ones.

Yeah my wife and I played Wednesday with a retired executive from United Healthcare and his wife. He was probably 70, skinny as a rail, has been playing golf all his life more now that he’s retired and kids raised. I shot a 49 on the front nine he shot a 41. Every single drive he hit was straight down the middle but I could hit my 3 wood past his driver. Nice couple we had a really good time with them.

That’s true and a fair point. I’ve always been on the side that says let a young QB sit for a few years, learn and work on their mechanics to be at their best. I’m sure he is “improving” but imo from a mean level of passing talent that was grossly overrated to begin with and that’s being proven correct every passing game. He was hyped up as the best QB sure fire prospect since Luck. Well so far…nope.

Biggest reason we beat the Pack and why the Packers will drop off this season: one year wonder players from 2021. Devondre Campbell was a very non-descript player every place he’d been prior to coming to GB last season. Then all of the sudden he was an All-Pro ILB? Not buying he just figured it out like that. Highly doubtful he replicates last year. Also, they got CB Rasual Douglass of another teams practice squad early last season and now all of the sudden after half a season of decent play–he’s a shutdown CB. Not buying that. Btw, both of these guys got paid big time this offseason.

As Vikings fans, we all know that 1 year wonder’s are certainly a thing. Think back to Brandon Fusco, Charles Johnson, Erin Henderson, etc.

The site I like best thinks highly of the Eagles offense at the moment. They believe the Eagles scored 38 pts in 3 quarters (true) before “taking their foot off the gas” (debatable).

Did the Eagles defense and offense both collapse in the 4th quarter? Can the Vikings use something the Lions showed us last week?

Are the Lions better than we assume? Are the pukers worse than we thought (and therefore our win is less impressive than we think)?

Yup, FootballOutsiders. And yes, it is a small sample size – they don’t start adjusting for the quality of the opponent until week 4, so I take these stats with a grain of salt. I like them better than other conventional stats like QBR though, and certainly better than simple quantifications.

Last year Minnesota was hilariously average:
16th overall.
16th ranked offense
16th ranked defense
1st overall in variance

A lot of people had say 5 or 7 year arms fixed for that period. Now those will adjust and they can’t refi as those rates are even higher. So, larger payments and more pressure. You are going to see a lot of foreclosures imo. Fed basically has said they are ok with higher unemployment now, likely goes to 7% (which means it’s really like 15%) and you are already seeing layoffs. That’s when the pain starts.

We’re pre approved already for a 30 yr fixed and a good rate. I’m trying to come up with a reason not to pull the trigger. Maybe you can talk me in to it.

that’s outstanding.

I pulled the trigger on a house 38 months ago and my rate is 3.75% (fixed 30 year)

Been paying extra on the principal some months, but the checking account has been slim the last few months.

“dad, it feels like you are going faster than the other cars”
“dad, if we get pulled over, will you go to jail”

The Vet is out there at 95 degrees last year, comes over and asks me if I have some tools, which I don’t normally keep at Canoe Girls, but I had a tool box along in vehicle. We had friends over and he’s interrupting, but ok.

He’s trying to grease bearings on trailer, and can’t get anything done, so me and friend go over in heat of day, I’m able to pull hub, cotters, nuts, etc. which took about an hour since I had to pull a jack out, jack up, block, yada yada. He greases, I help him put it back together, I’m getting burnt to a crisp and sweating like a pig.

Turns out he wanted wheels on trailer greased because he offered use of it to a friend of his up in Brainerd so friend could haul trash a mile to dump up there.

We paid a bit at the top of the housiing market, but people in MD,PA,NJ,NY are moving here in droves because it’s cheaper than their location. So I think the value will hold level. Or at least not fall as much as the rest of the country.

Well I think if you plan to be there for a relatively long period and the mortgage isn’t a burden financially then I think it’s fine AS LONG as you are getting a good deal. If you could live there for 5 or 10 years and at least not lose any money then I think it’s fine and why not?

When there was a Depression (not recession) in Alaska in the late 80’s, at the point that people had lost more than 50% of their equity or more they didn’t care if they lived there any more or not. They figured that their payments were not helping build equity one bit.

Governors speech was epic. We aren’t a sanctuary state and they are. We don’t have the resources and don’t want to deal with them, they do.

Gone fishin'

I'm a dad, husband, Army vet, believer, and a die-hard, life-long Vikings fan from the great state of North Dakota. I've been a Viking fan dating back to 1980, I've been covering the Vikings for nearly a decade, and I founded Skoloholics in 2022. I work in real estate and property management, I love spending time with family, working in the yard, doing anything in the outdoors, and as you can tell from my username, I love fishing. SKOL!!!!!!!!!!
