Cousins said he has thought about surrounding himself with plexiglass in the QB room. He was asked why he would go to such lengths when a vaccine would be far more effective and efficient. He said the decision is personal and private.



He's been "doing research" on the vaccine. Yeah, sure he has.

...and OJ is still looking for Nicole's killer.

And Reusse never mentioned the Lynx. Of course, Wisconsin doesn't have a WNBA team. But if they did, and that team reached the WNBA Championship game, I can almost guarantee you that the Championship game would be aired, unlike the Lynx's WNBA Championship game, which was taken off the air so a Poker tournament could be broadcast! Maybe Minnesota's Soccer team can do something. Maybe the Wild can do something. Maybe. All I know is that I won't be watching them. I'll keep rooting for the Packers, The Brewers, The Bucks and all the Badgers' teams. On Wisconsin!

I casually follow the Wild--we usually do a couple college student trips to games each year.  I'm just not a huge hockey fan in general.

I will say that I really do like watching the MN United.  I know nothing about soccer, but we did a student trip to a couple of those games and I was hooked.  Pretty amazing to watch pro soccer players and what they can do with their feet live.  Even got myself a hat, jersey and scarf!

The loss if TE Irv Smith is a BIG loss for the Queens.

Not only is he essentially the 3rd WR and a pretty good player, but there is next to nothing behind him unless Spielman's latest desperation move of trading a pick for a player at a position of needs pays off with Herndon.

Starting to get an end is near for the GM and or coach vibe out of the land of 10,000 puddles.

Mike Zimmer’s Quote About Kirk Cousins Is Going Viral

It’s never a good sign if your starting quarterback and head coach have a contentious relationship, but that seems to be exactly what’s happening in Minnesota.

Just last month, Vikings head coach Mike Zimmer publicly expressed his frustrations with starting QB Kirk Cousins for his decision to refuse the COVID-19 vaccine. More recently, the Minnesota coach criticized his quarterback’s tendency to settle for check-downs instead of pushing the ball downfield.

At Cousins’ request, Zimmer reportedly watched film with the 10th-year QB on Thursday. During a press conference this afternoon, the coach was asked if he thinks Cousins wants more autonomy in the offense.

In his response, he seemed to take yet another shot at his veteran QB.

“I think he does, yeah. I think he’s got opinions on a lot of things,” Zimmer said, per Vikings insider Courtney Cronin.

This conflict doesn’t exactly bode well for the Minnesota offense or the Vikings locker room as a whole moving forward.

After failing to make the playoffs with a 7-9 record last season, Zimmer and Cousins’ futures with the organization are likely both on the line if they don’t enjoy some postseason success in 2021.

Kirk appears to be.....rather douchey.

Kark is the perfect QB for that organization because their fans appear to be....rather douchey!

The best thing about Kirk is that the Vikings are on the hook for 45 million in cap charges in 2022 whether he's on the team or not.

He would have cost the Vikings 76 million in cap charges to cut this year.

He is going to make 150 million over 5 years to play in Minnesota.
