Are the Vikings Bad Recruiters?

Dateline, March 2009: After visiting with Vikings brass at a swanky downtown steakhouse, a coveted Vikings free agent (T.J. Houshmandzadeh) decides to sign with the next team he visits on his free agency tour (the Seahawks).
Fast forward one year...
Dateline, March 2010: After visiting with Vikings brass at a swanky downtown steakhouse, a coveted Vikings free agent (LaDainian Tomlinson) decides to sign with the next team he visits on his free agency tour (the Jets).
Am I sensing a pattern here?
It seems the wine-and-dine treatment from Brad Childress & Co. doesn't work too well. Do free agents dislike the food at Manny's? Does Chilly only talk at the table with the menu covering his mouth like he does with the play chart during games? Does Pat Williams steal food off everyone's plates without asking? Does the fact that Childress looks like Mr. Noodle and Zygi Wilf looks like Wario work against them? I MUST KNOW!

So What Do the Vikings Need, Really?

Today is NCAA basketball's Selection Sunday, and as a result I think I've heard the word "bubble" used on various sports radio and television programs at the rate of about 206 times per minute for the last few days. Lots of talk about who will make it into the field of 65 and be a part of what might be the best two weeks in sports anywhere. This got me to thinking. . .with the Vikings looking to upgrade and add parts and all that good stuff, how many roster spots are there actually available on the Minnesota roster, and who is in danger of potentially losing their job.
See, when you have a team that's as largely veteran as the Vikings are, there simply isn't enough room for a bunch of free agents and draft picks and things of that nature. In fact, the Vikings could potentially return all 22 of their starters from last season, dependent upon a couple of factors:

Weekend Open Thread
by MilCardFan on Mar 13, 2010 1:49 PM CST

Consider this an open thread for the weekend, free to discuss several things swirling about our favorite NFL team.
1) The Starcaps trial has ended, and by the looks of it, the good guys seemed to do pretty well, although Brad Childress, when placed under oath, STILL wouldn't say whether Favre was coming back.
2) Ray Edwards might be chased by the Eagles or Saints. Do the Vikes match, or do they let him go and end up with two first round picks?
3) Jimmy Kennedy, who has seen somewhat of a career revival in Minnesota, is pondering becoming a Buffalo Bill re-signs with the Vikings. Yikes. Hooray!! (edited, obviously)
4) And last but not least, LaDainian Tomlinson has headed back to San Diego after being wooed by the Vikings and the Jets.

At Least He's a Good Sport About It
Remember that game in 2008 when Lions quarterback Dan Orlovsky wanted absolutely no part of a charging Jared Allen, so he simply unwittingly scrambled out of the Metrodome endzone? Yeah so do I, and so does Dan.
But at least he has a good sense of humor about one of the dumbest bloopers in NFL history. As Detroit4Lyfe reports, Orlovsky recently signed a photo of his blunder with the caption "I'm just an idiot."

Vikings Currently Meeting with LaDainian Tomlinson
According to Judd Zulgad, LaDainian Tomlinson "is in Minneapolis and dining with Vikings brass as I type." And by "I," what I mean here is "he." I'm not Judd Zulgad, after all. Link goes to Judd's Twitter feed.

Tomlinson or Westbrook?
by MilCardFan on Mar 10, 2010 12:41 PM CST

So LaDainian Tomlinson, one of the best backs in the history of the NFL, is coming to Minnesota for a visit tomorrow. If things work out Tomlinson could be a Viking by the weekend, officially putting some much needed ‘holy crap!’ effect into the Vikings off-season. It’s a given that the Vikings need to find a replacement for Chester Taylor, now a member of the Flying Cutlers Chicago Bears, and here at DN, and Viking fandom in general, we’ve focused on two free agents widely considered the be the two top guys to do that: the aforementioned Mr. Tomlinson, and Brian Westbrook, the mayor of Concussionville, PA. For the uninformed, Concussionville is right down the road from Margaritaville, which is arguably a suburb of Paternoville. Anyhow, I want to take the next few minutes comparing Westbrook and Tomlinson, and try to deduce which guy might be the best fit for the Vikings. After the jump, of course.

An Open Letter to Roger Goodell

Dear Commissioner Goodell,
Let it go, man. Seriously. Just let it go before you and the National Football League embarrass yourselves any more than you already have.
You see, Mr. Goodell, the trial of Minnesota Vikings defensive tackles Pat Williams and Kevin Williams has officially been in court since Monday morning, and some facts have come to light in this case that you and the rest of the people that work in the National Football League's offices should be flat out humiliated about. Given past precedent, you probably won't be, given your propensity for thinking that you're above the law and untouchable, but just play along with me for a bit here anyway, won't you?
