[klecker]

What about #34 H. walker?

[Scott K]

What about Gary Anderson, didnt he pretty much have a perfect season? He only Missed 1 field goal the entire year!

[Steve Foss]

Fifty? There are 50?

Who knew? Time to check the definition of "great."

[BRULEDRIFTER]

How can Butterfingers Culpepper be on that list but not Cash Cunningham?

And no Gary Anderson? What about Fuad Reveiz?

What about A.P ?

[creepworm]

A.P. is on the list

[BRULEDRIFTER]

Ah, good eye!

[Steve Foss]

C'mon now. LMIT starting this thread? HAS TO BE a troll!!!

[croixflats]

Lot of great players listed there and a few that make me scratch my head.

J.Allen ? took up a spot of a couple others that easily t contributed more to the team Like say Robert Griffith or even Jack Del Rio,in my opinion much under rated line backer .

Heck they hired Griffith back in 2008 for one day just so he could retire as a Viking, Doesn't that show a bit of importance.

[BRULEDRIFTER]

Del Rio is a head scratcher....

[croixflats]

Del Rio is a head scratcher....

Kevin Williams without Pat? That would be like Mylard without Doleman. Suppose there is only so many spots to fill in a 50 place bag.

[JBMasterAngler]

Where is Splurgeon Wynn?

[snoozebutton]

Fifty? There are 50?

Kind of what I was thinking and where's Brent Favre on that list?

[nonteepical]

moss

[mrklean]

no denny green and mike tice?

[SneakAttack]

No Jake Reed on the list? He had a very good career with the Queens in the mid 90's

[Dave S]

How about Donald Igwebwike (Sp?) Last seen in a Poppy field.

[Scott K]

How about Donald Igwebwike (Sp?) Last seen in a Poppy field.

With a bare foot

[Black_Bay]

No Benchwarmer Bob?

[FISHINGURU]

That list would be a disgrace if Jared wasn't on there.

[zamboni]

Back when players were very approachable in Mankato, I can tell you one thing- Steve Jordan and John Randle are about the absolute nicest guys on the planet. Keith Millard- not so much

[LMITOUT]

That list would be a disgrace if Jared wasn't on there.

You surely aren't talking about Jared Allen. That no-talent clown should in no way, shape, or form be on that list. Yeah, I get it...he's the goofy redneck that wears #69 and has a couple 13, 14 DUI's and everyone loves him, but in all reality he doesn't belong on the list....especially after this year.

I think that since the list came out about 24 hours ago, everyone has come to accept the fact that it's a total joke.

[zamboni]

Kevin Williams without Pat? That would be like Mylard without Doleman. Suppose there is only so many spots to fill in a 50 place bag.

Don't forget Noga. That was a line back in the day.

You heard me.

Not even 3 full seasons with the Vikings yet and he's got

156 tackles

39 sacks

2 ints

9 forced fumbles, and 3 safeties

He's one of the best DE's in the game he's easily one of the best the Vikings have had.

[Trainman]

The list was based on fan voting so its biased toward recent years. Culpepper was the in the pro bowl and threw for over 4700 yards the year before he stredded his knee. I agree Griffith should have made the list. Walker should have never worn purple. Where's Ricky Young? Terry Allen was better than Robert Smith.
