Around these parts since our last open thread:

Ted shared some things he's looking for in the upcoming game against the Chargers.

Arif posted podcast #85, where they talk some Ragnar, and about the Vikes beating on Stafford.

Kyle was here! He has a nice write-up on Coach Zimmer and his motivational strategies.

Guard Brandon Fusco is dealing with a concussion.

Vikings news from other sources:

From Vikings.com

Here are some storylines to watch in the Vikings/Chargers matchup.

Teddy Bridgewater (or Drinkwater) addressed the media yesterday.

So did Coach Zimmer.

Craig Peters has 10 Vikings-Chargers numbers of note.

Around the league:

Stop me if you've heard this one, but the owner's impatience is hurting the Browns when it comes to QB decisions,from yahoo sports. Just my take, I really think it's the GM's choice, not the owner, but the author seems to think that the short leash the owner gives the GM is the reason for the decision, so make of it what you will.

It seems a bit early, but that isn't stopping yahoo sports from sharing their take on coaches who are on the hot seat.

NFL.com reported that DeMarco Murray had toleave practice with a hamstring injury.

Bruce Arians had a rather blunt message for his team yesterday, per NFL.com.

Twins update:

The Twins got 4 in the 4th of Kluber, and Hughes had a solid outing, and the Twins pulled to within one game of the Astros witha 4-2 victory over the Indians. Hey Five, are they still done?

With that, we come to today's media selection. Hey, instead of a media selection, let's do a poll. Since the NFC East seems to be imploding, I'd like to get your take on who will win that conference. Vote below!

Again, we all know the rules, but in case someone is new:

-No discussion of politics or religion
-No feeding of the trolls
-Keep the bad language to a minimum (using the spoiler tags, if you must)
-Speaking of which, if discussing a newer show or movie, please use spoiler tags
-No pictures that could potentially get someone fired or in serious trouble at their place of employment
-If you can't disagree in a civil manner, feel free to go away
-While navigating the open thread, just assume it's sarcasm

With that, the beer light is on and the bar is open. Belly up & tie one on. Don't forget to tip your waitress, & try the head cheese.
