I have no idea who Bobby Wade is endorsing for president in ‘08, but I do know who he’s supporting for the all-important job of Vikings quarterback: Tarvaris Jackson.
Wade said of Jackson after Sunday’s loss in Denver:
A guy that put that type of work in this year. Fight through injuries. New offense. New players. That’s [...]

The Vikings showed grit and determination late in their Week 17 match-up against the Denver Broncos. Down 19-3 in the 4th quarter and looking flatter than roadkill, the Vikes managed to mount a furious rally, highlighted by a pair of Tarvaris Jackson-to-Bobby Wade touchdown passes, and two runs for 2-point conversions by Jackson himself. [...]

I’ve seen all I ever want to see of Troy Williamson.  And I think Brad Childress agrees.
Well, we knew Chester Taylor had little fumble issues sometimes.  Those came up and bit us today didn’t they?
Tarvaris is missing those little short passes to open receivers again.  But, let’s give him time, right?
Not much from Adrian again.  [...]

Legendary Vikings coach Bud Grant says Tarvaris Jackson hasn’t had enough of a shot yet for anyone to know whether he’s NFL caliber.  The quote:
[Fans] are trying to evaluate him on the basis of very few games.  I don’t know that that’s fair to him, to try to put a tag on him at this [...]

Year almost over, season almost over.  Despite their best choking efforts the Vikings can still get in the playoffs. Just beat Denver and hope Brad Johnson and the Cowboys’ scrubs can bump off Washington.
Well, it was a nice run. Really, a hell of a time. But all good things must come to [...]

It’s time now to hand out The Viking Age’s year-end awards for excellence and not-excellence in professional football. Winners will receive a tiny gold statue of Ragnar and a certificate suitable for framing or making a paper airplane out of.

Pat Williams has missed practice all week with a bum elbow and knee but the big man says he’ll be good to go Sunday against the Broncos.  Ditto Sidney Rice, who’s missed the last couple of games with a high ankle sprain but did manage to practice this week.
Then there’s Antoine Winfield, who’s still nursing [...]

This is the sad reality we Vikings fans now face - having to count on Brad Johnson to beat the Redskins Sunday and give our team a chance to still make the playoffs.
Yes, Brad Johnson, the man we practically ran out of town last year.  He plays for the Cowboys now (in case you hadn’t [...]

A second Viking has been cited for marijuana possession this year.  This time it was Darrion Scott, who was nailed in his hometown of Charleston, West Virginia during some kind of drug sweep by local police.  From WSAZ.com:
Lieutenant Chuck Carpenter with the Metro Drug Unit tells WSAZ that officers were on proactive drug patrol in [...]
