What a big loss this would be! Who else would we blame for all of the whiff blocks. I sure hope Chilly has another plan for replacement.

Replacement!? I hope Chilly has plans for retirement.
Unless you mean by replacement, he replaces himself?

"Tahi played in 10 games for the Vikings in 2007 and all 16 games in 2008. He has caught six passes for 15 yards, and he sprung Adrian Peterson on several of his longest runs"

Wasn't Dugan supposed to be more of a fullback/TE for the Vikings offense? Are they finally going to see if he is up to the challenge?
Tahi never impressed me, but of course, according to some, it's Childress' system that stunts all the talent from manifestation on this team.

Let's report on some other news.

This Tahi guy is a thug. I was at a hotel in Minneapolis and I watched this guy kill three people with a sledgehammer.

I have to say that I do really enjoy Thai food.

None of that is true - I'm sure he is a great guy, a wonderful family man and a true rock n' roll 100%!

Norm Coleman to the rescue!

He is our savior..........without him our economy
will be forever in a recession state of mind!

[James Kasal Jr]

This James Kasal is a thug. I was at a hotel in
St. paul and I watched this guy kiss three pigs with
lipstick.

I have to say I do really enjoy being a racist.

All of this is true - I'm sure James is a bald guy, a troll and a true polka 100%!

If my comment came across as racist I apologize. It was supposed to be a joke about posts like that on other stories - serious stories. There is that story about the guy who was aquitted of killing his friend with a baseball bat - the forum is full of comments like: I know this guy, he is a murderer, etc.

I was just making a joke - sorry that it was offensive, that was not my intent. The Thai thing was just a joke about a person who cannot read...Tahi - Thai...bad jokes...worse delivery...sorry.

I am bald. I am not a troll. My past comments are public - you can see that 90% of the time I post comments that are constructive and related to the story, the other 10% of the time I make stupid, poorly executed jokes.

Anonymous, you definitely caught me off guard with your reply - but let me be clear, I believe that judging someone by the color of their skin, or their nationality, is the height of ignorance.

Thanks for the heads up regarding my original comment - I will try to be more careful in the future!

[Fire Childress]

Please Cincinnati - take this complete waste of a roster position off of our hands!

davery henderson and benett from the rams are young wrs with talent

You talk to f**king much. Worse than a chick for Christ's sake.

You are an anonymous coward. A chick? Is this 1959?

I rest my case.

You know, I was thinking about what you said - about talking too much. Perhaps you are right. That is an issue that I wrestle with in my daily life. As I am talking I even think to myself, "Am I talking too much?". Maybe I need professional help. I can see now that CT Viking Fan is not an anonymous coward, but instead a true humanitarian. Thank you for your kindness and charity.

Do you really think I talk to much?

[fernarten]

Let Tahi go to Cincy and have him take Dugan and Mills with him!

[Danny Boy]

who??????????or is it who cares???????

[Kris]

Tahi si a great person no dought. He has thrown Youth Golf tournment's here in UT, he's gives back to the community here in UT and in MN. He a great guy as i met last year as him and his wife had there baby. As a fullback he plays like he's a nice guy, i don't see that fire you need to have to blow people up in the hole to spring A.P. Him leaving MN should be a necessary move if we want to see A.P. show us more of his moves out of the back-field; he's better off out of the single wing formation anyway

[IAVikefan]

The REAL STORY that they SHOULD be reporting on is Minnesota's 100% F-ing up of this years free agency. We still have no starting quality quarterback, which turns out to be the deciding factor in the one starting quality receiver we pursued going elsewhere... we may not be able to retain Birk and Farwell... and we've sat on our a-holes and done nothing while the first tier ( considered starting material) of free agents has come and gone.

I don't see myself buying any tickets this year. If i'm paying $79/ticket, i want to see something more than the squad we had last year that went 1 and done in the playoffs.

This is Bull Shit.

Matt Birk just signed with Baltimore. I hope Childress is happy with this stupid decision to let Birk test FA. Way to go, bonehead. The only bright side of this is that at least now, you'll be coaching your last season with this team, thank God.

Nice going Vikings. Way to let your only option at Center walk out the door, and get nothing in return. Real smart organization you guys are running. Idiots!
