Minnesota Vikings News and Links, 4 April 2023

I am not arguing. I am simply explaining why I’m right.

COLLEGE FOOTBALL: SEP 10 Missouri at Kansas State

There is not much to “report” as there has been no activity as far as signings or trades. The Vikings still only have 1.45M in cap space. I have to believe a trade of Za’Darius Smith and/or Dalvin Cook will happen before the draft. Maybe during the draft? If not, then they’ll restructure a little and kick that can down the road again.

Since yore last open thread ...

Nothing, nada, zilch!

However, some members (er, true draft doofuses) here are doing a community mock and representing other teams.

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
