Deflation, Demolition and finally Determination? 05.01.2011

Well the 2010 season has mercifully come to an end, as has the coaching search for our Minnesota Vikings. Leslie Frazier has been officially named head coach of the Vikings, Favre is done, and fans continue to crown Joe Webb the QB of the future prematurely!

Positivity Is The Name 06.12.2010

Leslie Frazier oozes positivity to his players, and we're seeing the results in a 38-14 blowout of the Buffalo Bills on Sunday. Sidney Rice much more resembled himself in 2009 in a dominant performance. Vikings 2010 MVP Adrian Peterson also did exactly what your host predicted: Peterson killed an already bad Buffalo run defense. Join the positivity here in episode 81!Call into our Phone Lines at 2...

Rare Feat By Vikings Coach In Debut Game 30.11.2010

Leslie Frazier's potential career as Viking's coach is off to a good start, beating the Redskins in Washington on Sunday. The game, as per usual in 2010 was as tedious as ever, but key stops, and a very key first down was made, that saved the day.

Special Edition: Childress Fired, Frazier Named Interim Coac 24.11.2010

Vikings fans got exactly what they wanted Monday, when Zygi Wilf fired Brad Childress as Vikings coach, and named Leslie Frazier interim coach for the rest of the season. Like the previous two Special Editions, in this ultra dramatic 2010 season, this episode is strictly about you the listener! Call into our Phone Lines at 209-736-7877 Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

The Need For Hope And Change 22.11.2010

The Childress regime is near it's end, and today's 31-3 home loss to arch rival Green Bay should be the final straw that broke the camel's back, not only for Childress but also for Brett Favre, the end has come. A very busy, crazy, and info driven show awaits your ears, here in episode 78. Call into our Phone Lines at 209-736-7877. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Bears Have Childress Seeing Red 15.11.2010

Now at 3-6, the Vikings chances of having that magical season that we've waited 50 years for, are all but completely over. Brad Childress' status as head coach remains in tact as I recorded the show, and write this now, but that could change at anytime. Call into our Phone Lines at 209-736-7877 Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Resurgence, Or Denial? 07.11.2010

Brett Favre reminded us what spreading the ball meant, Jared Allen and Ray Edwards reminded us what a pass rush looks like. The Vikings played the best 3:34 that we may ever see, the hope now is that this is only the beginning, is it? Call into our Phone Lines at 209-736-7877 Learn more about your ad choices.

Special Edition: Moss Waived, Fans Strike Back! 01.11.2010

We talk about the events that took place Monday, when Brad Childress alienated his fan base, hid his intentions from upper management, as he of course dumped one of the most talented and debated individuals in NFL history, after acquiring number 84 a mere four weeks ago. Call into our Phone Lines at 209-736-7877. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Road To Nowhere 01.11.2010

Yet another road loss, yet another lack of execution down the stretch. The most frustrating part of the lack of execution on this team was not at the QB on this day, it was defensively. Madieu Williams looks more fit for the USFL, if that. Call into our Phone Lines at 209-736-7877Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

World War 3: Coach vs QB 26.10.2010

Your host puts the notes aside and goes with pure emotion in this epic episode. Brad Childress calls out Brett Favre, has Favre lost his gift? Childress may be losing control and respect of his team. Refs do Vikings no favors, in fact, a 14 point difference isn't over estimating the mistakes made by officials in this game. Call into our Phone Lines: 209-736-7877. Learn more about your ad choices....

The Grind 18.10.2010

In yet another tedious effort by the offense, the Vikings were able to come out on top against the equally struggling Dallas Cowboys. Favre's accuracy has improved, but the big play ability is still lacking. Cedrick Griffen's absence was painfully obvious. Call into our Phone Lines at 209-736-7877. Learn more about your ad choices.

Special Edition: Oh My God!!! Moss Is Back!! 06.10.2010

In this special edition of PM, we talk about one subject, Randy Moss. The most exciting receiver maybe of all-time, has returned to Minnesota, there will be a more fitting owner of the number 84 yet again. Call Into Our Phone Lines at: 209-736-7877. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Finally Something Good 26.09.2010

Well sorta something good anyways, a win is a win. Brett Favre continues to struggle finding chemistry with his receivers, though Percy Harvin emerged nicely from an injured hip. Adrian Peterson reminded us of his dominance dating back to his truely remarkable 2007 season. Call into our Phone Lines at 209-736-7877. Learn more about your ad choices.

The Roller Coster 19.09.2010

Back and forth the Vikings and Miami Dolphins squandered offensive opportunities, and their defenses flexed their muscles. When the "ride" was over, the Vikings clearly have not improved an inch, since week one. We also talk more Vincent Jackson, and our host's desire for his services being brought north. We also get to your facebook posts, and twitter mentions, as always! Call into our Phone Line...

Let Down Or Title Town? 06.09.2010

With the strange decisions made this past week: First, yet again favoring Tarvaras Jackson over Sage Rosenfels. Second: Trading the most dependable kick returner we had, in Darius Reynaud WITH Sage to the hated New York Giants. Third: Passing on T.J. Houshmanzadeh, and cutting Javon Walker leaving us with only four active receivers. Call into our Phone Lines at: 209-736-7877 Learn more about your...

Enter Favre 2.0 30.08.2010

Yeah Brett's back, but Sidney Rice won't be for eight weeks, Percy Harvin collapses on the sidelines as migraines continue to plague this talented youth. As a result, the Vikings sign former Favre co-hourt Javon Walker, and trade Benny Sapp to Miami for Greg Camarillo who can catch with two parts of his body. Call into our Phone Lines at: 209-736-7877 Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaph...

Training Camp/Preseason Special 2010 16.08.2010

Well we finally get into our second annual positional breakdown, while we simultaneously review the St. Louis Rams preseason game, which further helps the breakdown. Rosenfels raises his potential trade value, and Chris Cook could be the next great Rick Spielman draft pick. Call into our TSS Phone Lines at: 209-736-7877. Learn more about your ad choices.

Time to Get Back to Work 01.08.2010

Catch Up Time! 06.06.2010

Paladino Joey is finally back, and it's time to get caught up! We discuss the April draft, including a call in from Anthony from L.A. Second, we hear some good news regarding E.J Henderson's recovery from the broken femur. Then, we get into the twitter war between Viscante Shancoe and Darren Sharper, and finally as usual some Favre banter. Call into our phone lines at 209-736-7877. Learn more abou...

McNabb Option Gone, For Now 05.04.2010

Donovan McNabb is now a Redskin, in a fairly surprising in division trade. McNabb is no longer a plan 1A for the Vikings at QB, for this year anyway, this does not end any chance he'll sign here after the final year of his contract ends this coming season. We also get more into the draft on possible scenarios that could arise, as we also get to your comments on the PM Facebook group! Call into our...
