NFL consults Vikings on how to pump in fake crowd noise for games with no fans.

Virtual Lambeau Leaps?
I'm sure Murphy has someone on that.
I'm surprised Murphy doesn't have an life-size "end zone" replica that tours Wisconsin and the country that folks and kids can leap in. It would 'visit' all the towns where we play on the road, would be a hit, and give all those kids waiting at TC for the bike rides something to do, before and after.
For a nominal charge, naturally....
The Vikings could have a traveling replica ship that visits different marinas , catches fire and sinks.
Only if they are in International Waters.

This brings back memories of the days when the vikings played in the Hump Dome. I'm wondering if the NFL consulted the vikings on how to get opposing teams' fans to buy tickets for the next home team's at home game to make up for lost revenue and to fill those empty seats, so the game could be televised? Back then, the vikings were the pandemic that kept their so called fans away.
Seattle too. Those bastards got busted for pumping in crowd noise.
They'd get boarded and busted the moment they sailed across the state line.
Here is the top 10 snake-bitten NFL franchises. You will have to watch most of it to find out where the Vikings are ranked. But it shouldn't come as a surprise.
Ruh Roh...Dalvin not happy...
Awwwww........😢
Couldn't happen to a nicer franchise.
Nothing like new posts in the Vikings Suck 2.0 thead to brighten a day during a global crisis!
And how much leverage does he have when the season itself is uncertain?
o leverage, he hasn't played a full season in 3 years.
In his three years playing, he has played in a total of 29 games and last year had four fumbles as well. He's comparing his $1.3 million to Cousins' $30 million and listening to Zimmer's "we want to be a running team." While Cook may have an argument, he's not arguing from a position of power. Management has him on this one.
He deserves Zeke Elliot money, 6 years - $90M. Hell, with inflation, make it $100M.
Don't settle for anything less Dalvin!
The thing is, the vikings suck...
As we roll towards a new season ( hopefully) , its always instructive to take a look back at the previous season for hints about how the next one will play out
The Mighty Green Bay Packers and the vikingsuck play a very similar schedule, including each other 2x
Note the massive difference between a winning franchise and the vikingsuck

Scroll down and:
Look at their anemic record vs Top 10 teams
Check out their lame record vs Top 16 teams
And then look at the Packers record vs that same Top competition
clearly the vikingsuck
In terms of production it’s obvious Cook is vastly underpaid but that’s the contract he signed. Aaron Jones is in the same boat.
The lifespan of running backs isn’t great but in the end that’s the position they chose to play.
In today's episode of "As the Stomach Turns..."
I think one of our " Friends" made a comment after that article!
Minnesota is the envy of the league with all that talent. While I’d hate to see the best running back in the league (sorry Cowboy fans – lol) go, they will do fine if he doesn’t play. With the talent they have at qb, wr and with the playmakers they picked up in the draft, who will no doubt make an immediate impact, they’re set on offense even without him. And the d will still be the best of the best. Getting Cook back would just be the “icing on the cake”.
Best RB in the league? Sorry, but where is AJ33 going?

Sounds like someone squeezed out a load of 'icing' in the comment section.
Cook is awfully good -- when he's on the field. Otherwise, he's usually icing.
Cook is realizing he is playing for the vikings. He wants to get his share of the money before he gets injured, again. I love this as Spielman had just restructured players salaries to come under the cap just prior to the draft and FA. Did the vikings draft any RBs? If not, they may have to pay Cook and do more restructuring of other players contracts. Yes folks, the vikings do suck!
Great Viking off-season so far.
Staaaaaacked!
Exceptional RBs who do not hold out during their rookie contracts are just fools.

yup, and the owners figgered that part out and changed the holdout rules in the new cba.
Fines are increased and if they don't report to TC on time, they lose a year of service towards Free Agency. In Cooks case, if he stays away from TC - he will be an RFA next year instead of an unrestricted FA. He has very little leverage

Well, now they are fucked. The NFL Players Union is chaired by Goodell, right? Wow!
If they really wanted to punish him they would trade him to the Vikings.
What's up with the link to the same thread?
That confused me too. I thought I was stuck in the Matrix.

Tragic story. Jaws squandered his movie fortune on his baby seal habit and later co-starred with Tommy Wiseau in "Super Viking Shark Rider Killer who may also be a Vampire".
Tommy Wiseau, talk about a guy making a career just by producing laughably bad product.
