They use there minor league systems properly, spend money in the right places and still have the lowest payrolls in the league(and are competitive). I hate the Yankees with a passion and love how they try to buy championships. Anyways the twins and a's do things the right way..............\
...............now back to the football talk.

Twins do just fine for the money they spend."If" I was a Twins fan and really cared how far they actually went each season... I would be pissed that they refuse to bring in someone that can hit.
For the money we as fans pay to goto the games, I sure as hell don't want to back a team that shoots to be a "just fine" team. -

Morneau, Mauer, Jones, Hunter, Stewart are each capable to hit 20 + home runs a year. ESPN had them picked to win the world series, it just didnt work out. Why waste millions of dollars on one player who can hit homeruns when they can get a couple of players that will help the team in other ways. You cant win it every year with the players that can HIT. Look at the Yankees..........So with the use of the payroll, there minor league system, and signing of free agents, I would say they are doing "Just Fine". They play the game right, hustle all the time, and are not overpayed whiny little bitches..........

I think we need at least one more great hitter that we can always depend on. Someone that we can count on to get 25-30 home runs/year without question.
And I don't think Stewart is ever going to be a 20+ home run a year hitter or even close for that matter. -
i thought this was a vikings thread!!!
Either way...the vikings suck ass this year...they need to get rid of culpepper fast!

Lets see what they do this offseason. Get rid of Hunter, Jones, and Lohse and perhaps get someone good in return.

color blind and has parkensons disease or something...fumbles all the time also.
Randy moss had a 60yd TD yesterday though!

Randy Moss can make big plays... no doubt about it. Our receiver group we have now can as well if the QB would throw them the ball.
We played 3 complete games without Moss last year and many more where he sat out the majority of the plays and our offense did not completely shut down and fall apart without him by any means.
Moss is not the reason for all of these turnovers and fumbles and the rest of the crap that's happening now. -
i know he's not the reason for the turnovers...culpepper just sucks balls!!!

His strongest suit is that he is big and can run the ball, but if he can't hold on to it, it doesn't matter too much.

Over Culpepper's career (76 games), he has thrown 82 interceptions and has 78 fumbles (lost 33). That's an average of over 1.5 turnovers a game and could have been well over 2 if some of those fumbles hadn't been recovered.
He's not very bright on top of that. He can't read the defense very well.
Brad Johnson isn't the answer... but we gotta find someone who is.
We don't need a damn perfect QB, but we need someone that won't get us beat with turnovers.As far as the running back situation, we better find someone in the near future and stick with him. NOBODY is going to get any confidence if we keep up this 3 man running back game.

But I thought last year, he was your savior? He was damn near as good as Peyton I was told. Best QB in the league I heard over and over and over. Had among the highest pass ratings in the league. Favre couldn't hold a candle to him. All those things I heard from Vikings fans, damn its funny to watch you guys jump ship....
