Good Morning!

It’s finally Friday the end of the work week for most of us. I’m looking forward to a weekend of working in the yard and getting caught up on Netflix series and stuff I have DVR’ed but haven’t had the time to watch. What are your Friday plans besides cutting out of work early?

Around the DN since our last thread:

From Chris, defensive tackle David Parry is currently visiting with the Minnesota Vikings.

Willie McGinest ranks Everson Griffen among NFL’s five best pass rushers.

I missed this yesterday, our very own 2018 Vikings Take Generator™ brought to you by Eric.

Vikings news from other sources and league news:

From Vikings.com and their lunch break series the Vikings could be are the most well rounded team in the NFC North. (FIFY)

RB Roc Thomas describes competitive fire, willingness to multitask.

Around the NFL’s Chris Wesseling ranks his top 10 offenses heading into the 2018 season.

Wobby talked to Rookie RB Mike Boone as he is in the mix for the 3rd running back spot.

NFL Network Willie McGinest grades the Minnesota Vikings’ 2018 draft class.

We come to today’s media selection: Pearl Jam - Corduroy

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

-No discussion of politics or religion
-No feeding of the trolls
-This isn’t a male version of The View, so leave the gender hatred at the door
-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 get someone fired or in serious trouble with their employer
-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 and tie one on. Don’t forget to tip your waitress, try the venison chili and as always, Welcome Aboard and Skol Vikings!
