Minnesota Vikings News and Links, 13 Jun 2022

Hey, everybody! It’s the start of another new week at your favorite Minnesota Vikings website, and we’re glad to see all of you back here with us as the offseason plods on.

Since the last time we brought you an Open Thread. . .

• The Vikings ended their kicking competition fairly early, waiving UDFA kicker Gabe Brkic on Friday afternoon.
• Colin Cowherd thinks the Vikings are going to double their win total this season. I’m. . .skeptical.
• Two Old Bloggers let us know that things are really muddy. The upcoming heat wave should help to dry things out.
• Could the Vikings trade for Baker Mayfield? Probably not.

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

• No discussion of politics or religion
• No feeding of the trolls
• 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.
