Listen don't make a post claiming there is a case for firing Zimmer/Spielman "building", and then reveal its just some journalists opinion. There are people here (me) who dream of the Vikings doing the right thing, eating the money loss and firing these two and are constantly in search of evidence that this might happen. So no more false advertising click baity headlines to open.

We don't need to HEAR a case for firing them, it's already quite obvious they should be fired and any ten of us could present completely different and unique cases as to why they should be fired and we'd all be 100% right. What we need to hear is that the Vikings brass wants to, or is getting impatient, etc, etc.

You need to pay attention. I'm the President of the Dark side and also a member of the CMC. Ask Funky about my stance. She's sick of my negativity which I call realistic views of how bad this team has been and how much I want complete change.

i'm not sure what president of the dark side means exactly, but i'm saying don't tease things in the headline that you can't deliver. its unbecoming...

I think the case for firing both Mike and Rick is equally strong and weak. Much like real court cases they do not always follow public opinion. This will not be a jury trial. The judges paid good money to preside over our fate. I guess I could be one of them losers that hangs out in a crowd outside the courthouse with a sign. Burn'em all. I just got better things to do.

How long are the owners gonna give these two to put a championship team on the field?

Seriously, hasn't it been long enough? Especially when you see basically the same team with the same weaknesses season after season.

Change is needed.

...but next year they will make the playoffs and not advance far but enough to keep trying 2 more years. This was the other year where we don't and fight for 8 wins. Odd vs even year thing. Next year we will almost make it to the big show.
You'll see...

Then I'm wrong. That's nothing new. My way feels more Zimmer like.

I agree with you but isn't that just one more reason to get rid of these guys? Its getting tiresome. If the team isn't going into a positive direction in consistently it should be time to move on.

I'm still on the fence with Rick, but honestly if it takes getting rid of Rick to get rid of Mike, then so be it.

With zimmers track record against teams with winning records, and the fact that he hasn't been to the playoffs in consecutive years shows me enough that he's had his chance to lead this team. I myself am sick of good year bad year trend. It clearly shows once he has to play better teams he and his team fold like a house of cards.
