Crabs, maybe. grin.gif

In all seriousness, this latest incident in what has turned in to a train wreck of a season has actually made me embarassed to be a Vikings fan. I live in a town that is more of a Bears town than anything else (don't ask about college football!), but I don't have a problem wearing Vikings stuff out in public, even in a losing year. This though, is just embarassing. Losing on the field is one thing, as is cutting loose with some women and booze, but harassing a bunch of kids trying to make a living is quite another. If it was just one or two players getting in a brawl at a convenience store at three a.m. I could write it off,(oh wait...), but seventeen freaking players? This organization is a mess--I won't be wearing any Vikings gear out in public for a while. crazy.gif

Hold on here guys, life is rough being a professional athlete....Making multiple millions every year.....every little kid looks up to you...etc. Look at all the pressures they face, it must be really hard to stay out of trouble and not screw up or get arrested JUST ONCE!

I think I am going to watch golf and Nascar from now on. I am sick of watching the rest of these (Contact US Regarding This Word) jump and dance around!

Its obvious that the Minneapolis media absolutely hates Minnesota pro sports, with the exception of Sid Hartman (part of the time). They just wait for slip ups (minor or major) and then they let em have it. When you read the front page of the star trib sports section (opinion) its nothing but negativity...be it against the twins, vikes or wolves. Im suprised some of these guys still can walk. If I was one of the athletes they rip apart in the paper, id stomp a mudhole in their a$$. Living in other places around the nation... Ive YET to see a home town newspaper be so hateful toward their teams.

    • As a recovering machinist, I can appreciate that.  If the spec is 0.001 - 0.0015, then clearly the correct measurement is 0.00125, duh…
    • I just figured that it is easy enough to just get a 3 bank so when the boat is not in use I can keep all 3 batteries charged. I have not bough a charger yet, maybe I will give it some more thought. Edit: After thinking this over, with the size, weight, and heat output of the charger (as well as the cost) I think it makes sense to just buy a 2 bank charger, I have a smaller charger i can use on the starting battery when the boat is sitting at home. Forgive me, for i am a retired engineer and I have to obsess over everything...
    • Congrats on the motor!  I think you’ll like it.   I can’t say much on the charger location but I’ve seen them under the lid in back compartments and under center rod lockers.  160 degrees is more than I expected to hear.   Curious why you’re opting for a 3 bank charger with a 24V trolling motor.  Unless you don’t feel you be running you big motor enough to keep that battery up as well?
    • I did buy an Minnkota Ulterra, thanks for the recommendations. I had a bunch of Cabela"s bucks saved up, which helped. Now i need to get an onboard battery charger. Where do you guys mount these things in your boat? The manufacturer I am looking at {Noco genius) says tht their 3-bank charger will run at 160 degrees, seems like a lot of heat in an enclosed compartment? Thanks for any input on this.
    • You're very lucky a troop of Sea Monkey's didn't carry you away.   
    • Wasn't terrible at a state park beach. Antelope island maybe.  I wouldn't recommend it as a beach destination tho.  Figured I was there, I'm getting in it.
    • The water looked and smelled disgusting with hundreds of thousands of birds sh*tting in there.  About as gross as the Salton Sea. When I duck hunted there I didn't even want to touch the water.
    • It's kinda gross with the algae in the summer but I got in it anyway.  Wanted to see the increased bouyancy at work.  You can kinda tuck yourself into a ball and you'll just float with your head above water.  When dry off you look diamond encrusted with the salt.
    • We went to the flats too. I dipped a tire on the rental car onto it just to say I’ve been there,but it was still pretty soft from winter melt. After seeing some moron in a BMW suv get dragged out of the muck I had no intention of repeating his stupidity. 
    • I've been out on the flats. It's like being on a different planet
