My Friends,

 

A report coming out of the Minnesota training facility states that Vikings starting defensive end Erasmus James tore the ACL in his left knee in yesterday's home opener and will be lost for the year. This comes after linebacker Chad Greenway, their highly touted first round draft pick this year, also tore his left ACL in their first preseason game, also at home.

Just in case anybody really believed that garbage about how the Field Turf in the Metrodome wouldn't be as dangerous once it was "broken in."

Here's hoping Tony Medlin brings the right kind of shoes. Or maybe they should just move the game out into the parking lot.
