Mike Tice was fired after going 9-7 in 2005 after the Wilfs bought the team.

Well Tice was never Wilf's guy, and there was that whole love boat thing, and the Super Bowl ticket scalping thing Tice was involved in in 2005.

Brad Childress was fired one year after going 12-4, making the NFC Championship Game AND signing a contract extension.

Had it not been for Favre Childress would have been fired much sooner. It's hard for Wilf to ignore the booing at every home game in 2010. Being eliminated from playoff contention by week 11 and cutting Moss after 4 games probably didn't help. I mean when you have the next Tony Dungy waiting in the wings, why wait? Can't afford to let Frazier get away xD.

Zimmer is the fourth Head Coach of the Wild tenure. But yeah, the Wilfs never fire anyone.

Well 3rd, we can't put Tice on them, so they've only had to fire 2 of their own. Both were obvious mistakes. And Spielman wasn't even their first choice for de facto GM. We've been denied an opportunity to see a fire Fran Foley avatar as BosViking avatar haha. I mean the guy was fired 3 days after trading up to draft TJack in the 2nd round of the 2006 draft, after being on the job for only 5 months, so I guess it makes sense.

You do not understand the Vikings organization under Zygmunt. 9-7 means extensions for both. Pay attention! *woot*

Now you are a fellow who understands the Zygmunt! Don't let Chili "get away to Green Bay!" lol. Hire the first hand you shake every time. Who needs to interview more than one guy when you just fell in love... again! If they finally do shitcan RS and MZ I can't wait to see what dreck they hire as replacements. Get ready for 3-5 wins a year imho, but hey, the fans love them some "Ziggy". They believe in that guy cuz he builds buildings and "wants to win" (how unique among sports owners it truly is, oh my), woot!

Sharps on my gambling podcast roster are all over the Chargers. Best scoring defense in the last 6 weeks, offense reinvigorated, Vikes history is 4-14 ats on the west coast, line has moved from Minn -3 to -1, KC has a really bad record in games that are not 1pm EST start times, etc. And all the message boards are littered with guys telling me how scared they are to play this game. Maybe Viking fans should just retire and take up knitting, lol.

I personally will watch without fear, win or lose. If we go down well, that's on Mike Zimmer, again. Skol!

Pro tip: if you want to see the humorous side of VikingsBoss, just talk about how great Kyle Sloter is, or Teddy Bridgewater. Both have the same effect. *thumb_up*

It always feels like a bye week to see everyone else playing and not us.

I don't mind the 3 oclock start. Gives me a chance to get something done in the early afternoon.

But the Sun/Mon night games are too long to wait. Thurs night games just blow in general. Their usually not well played mainly due to not enough rest for the players.
