Vikings

I'm not going to go into the recent situation with the Vikings, but after the fact I am for the first time questioning my loyalty to the team. For my entire life I have been unwavering in rooting for the Vikes and hating the Packers in any and all circumstances. Don't think I'm gonna turn into a cheesehead, I will always hate Green Bay, but the current state of the Vikings is embarrasing. If things are not turned around immediately and the players responsible for the incident don't come forward and apologize I don't know if I can continue to support the team.

At this point I think a complete overhaul of the franchise is necessary, dump Tice and anyone who is in any way a distraction to the team no matter how much talent they have, that includes Daunte. It may be time for this team to wipe the slate clean and start over. Before the start of this season I really believed that we would see a return to the glory of the Purple People Eater days, what we have seen is the complete opposite. The Vikings aren't just losing, they're embarrasing themselves on and off the field.

I'll say that I like what Wilf had to say about the situation, but I think we will need to see a lot of new faces for the franchise to live up to his vision. I really don't know what to think about the rest of the season but as for next year I want to see a completely different team and if that means a last place team I won't care as long as it is a rebuilding phase. I for one will accept a couple years of losing teams if it takes us back to being a respected, winning team.
