Merry Tuesday, everyone!
Tuesday’s are normally slow, as far as football news goes, today is no different. The Vikings are getting ready for the Colts, as they try to win out and hope for the best.
Around the DN since our last open thread:

Listen to a radio interview with Adrian Peterson.
Vikings news from other sources:

From Vikings.com:

Around the rest of the NFL:
The Patriots defeated the Ravens last night, score from NFL.com.
From NFL.com, the Rams fired head coach Jeff Fisher, just weeks after signing him to an extension.
We come to today’s media selection.
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
-This isn't a male version of The View, so leave the gender hatred at the door
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 tiger meat.
