[Music] what’s going on jeromes uh it’s a beautiful Saturday morning birds are tripping and stuff and it’s time for another Vikings news dump uh yesterday was a top 10 weather day in the great state of Minnesota it was like 7980 Sunny no humidity no bugs gorgeous out so uh my my kids enjoy playing uh water fights like when against warm out uh so set up the sprinkler system set up the slip and slide and also we we got these we got these like Dollar Store Super Soakers but they’re actually pretty good actually not bad at all also like the little like foam pump things was turned into like a water cannon those are pretty good too now when I play I I I don’t play right so I built a elevated fortified position complete with a water source uh so unlimited ammunition and then like like my stupid kid uh my my stupid kids just like charging the position with like their little pistol please child please come on man anyways uh so the Vikings uh potentially could finally add a interesting new uniform uh because of the new third helmet rule in the NFL uh and W design buy or sell the CT ESPN rumors on the Vikings white out jerseys are true uh so far CT ESPN has been like seven on seven Leakes now CT ESPN Antonio Brown loose Loosely is still associated with Antonio Brown now a lot of his a lot of his reports not so much where it’s like oh Justin Jefferson getting traded to the Chargers no but Jersey leaks they’ve actually been pretty good and like they called the uh the the Giants Jersey leak about a month ahead of time so a little bit of credence there now looking at these what are those now initially we just saw the the Unis on the right all right so it just like all right so white and silver and purple it kind of looks like Northwestern adjacent so uh Sports illustrator will ragit will be super excited Thomasson will be super excited uh our our guy AO Deno super excited but nah nah nah nah but once you see it modeled uh W design did a phenomenal job here also I feel like something that the usfl gets right is the aesthetic everyone’s wearing visors the NFL the no fun League you have a deal with Oakley everyone should be wearing dark visors it’s so stupid because there’s a couple things are very stupid about the league still number one that there’s still outside of my cause my cleats there’s still cleat uh you know color rules right so all these awesome custom cleats uh that are gu mosh makes like you only see them in pregame in warm-ups that’s where all the pictures come from you can’t wear them in games it’s so stupid uh but also the dark visors not John Cena like actually dark visor because they’ve loosened things up respect but I mean it used to be like you had to have like a medical reason to wear a dark visor so Gilbert Brown’s like I got glaucoma or something like that I don’t know but uh I mean that act this actually looks pretty good not going to lie so yeah the white out which the Vikings have done over the last two years still had that purple helmet but with the new third helmet uh rule going all white it looks kind of nice man and yeah the Vikings haven’t really deviated much from their uh o OG uniforms it’s been kind of the same so uh shaking things up a little bit also the teas of dark mode love to see that man also something I love to see is the Vikings adding a six offensive rookie of the year uh and you know everyone says it’s going to be JJ McCarthy but what if it’s uh what if it’s Rouse Walter Rouse one time uh most offensive Rookie of the Year winners Thursday Night Football put this up Vikings with five uh bunch of teams with four Cowboys Rams allons blah blah blah blah blah blah so so thinking back can you name the five so the obvious ones Randy MOS 98 uh Adrien Peterson 2007 uh but there’s a couple from par of the day all so 1973 Chuck Foreman that’s just you being the U uh spin doctor uh getting it on 1976 Sammy white or I mean the Vikings have been a franchise of amazing wide receivers yeah Randy Moss Chris Carter Justin Jefferson uh Jake Reed Anthony Carter Sammy white Ahmad Rashad I mean come on come on man it’s fantastic uh 98 random M of course 2007 Adrien Peterson actually that doesn’t make sense also 2009 offensive weapon Percy Harvin which running back wide receiver I mean if Percy Harvin played in today’s NFL number one he would be able to talk about his his his issues he’d be able to talk about his anxiety he would be a to talk about him not sleeping before games all that stuff and everything will be out in the open and he’d be fine cuz I feel like the NFL and Society RIT large have made big strides with mental health issues right Percy Harvin could have got the help that he needed Percy Harvin was special man I mean Percy Harvin was just an absolute monster just it’s unfortunate uh next so also a monster so cam Acres the pride of Florida State uh came over via trade last year as the Vikings were looking to get something going on the ground now Acres of course had a lot of cross over Kevin mconnell with the Rams uh and you know last year he looked pretty good like he he didn’t put up monster black and white stats uh 138 yards on the ground 3.6 yards B carry and touchdown but he he had uh he had one more rushing touchdown than Alexander Madison last year and he he just looked more explosive just looked a little bit better now the Vikings Run game especially interior Run game had a lot of issues last year but Acres unfortunately popped his other Achilles he had just gotten over uh you know popping the other one uh in 2021 uh but he’s looking to make a comeback training at uh the training house at TCO Performance Center Bar and Grill now what’s interesting is that training house is right next to the Vikings facility and there’s a lot of nonv KS who train there it’s a world renowned worldclass facility and also uh cam Acres the picture on the right I didn’t know that they got the aggro crack from Nickelodeon guts that’s pretty damn awesome man love to see it but akr’s been putting out a lot of videos he is a free agent uh he did have an expiring deal with the Vikings and I think it is a spot where they’re going to let cam Acres get to 100% And it might be a spot where he’s unsigned throughout OTAs which are coming up and mandatory mini camp which is also coming up as well as the you know the six we interum break before the start out training camp uh and the Vikings so besides adding Aaron Jones who basically just swapped out with Madison they didn’t really do anything right so they didn’t sign any other running backs uh they didn’t draft running back they didn’t bring in any udfa running backs either so Jones Chandler CJ ham as the fullback the Capone uh King K Dwayne McBride last year seventh round pick from UAB Blazer I I feel like in preseason that might have been his first pass block in rep ever because that’s just how the UAB offense was man uh and then miles gasin you know the do it all veteran so it could be a spot too where you know they’re monitoring Acres obviously he’s in house which is super interesting cuz he he doesn’t live here uh but the Vikings are having him close they’re keeping an eye on him and it could be a spot where he gets 100% one year Pro a deal minimum nothing guaranteed and compete and go from there but I I I like cam Acres a lot and if the Vikings did resign him he’d be an easy guy to rooe for also rooe for is whoever the hell is going to start a quarterback whether it’s darnold you theet finally surrounded with Talent around him and and good coaching or JJ McCarthy the Rookie of the franchise do they Kickstart My Heart and just go from there but vik fan page Sam darnold is betting favor to start week one for the Vikings per uh draftking Sportsbook uh here are the odds couple jelly beans uh sling and slam darnold minus 155 so you got about 155 jelly beans to win 100 or JJ McCarthy plus 120 uh so if you bet 100 jelly beans you get 120 back so eh I don’t know I don’t know like it it’s close so starting week one specifically I I’d like to see the odds who starts the most games overall in the season because it could be a spot where you know darnold starts the season but maybe things go pair shape maybe things go wonky the first five games and some of it could be on darnold’s May maybe some not but also you know McCarthy getting his feet wet still getting a practice an extra five weeks maybe he gets some run in those first five games and looks good and then all of a sudden after the buy woo woo he’s in he’s in man and then starts the rest of the season so uh it will be 12 games to five something like that I don’t know but week one I I would shy away from it yeah because I mean obviously we haven’t had full team practice OTAs uh there’s no leaks there there’s no uh information coming out uh publicly available that’s going to sway the betting markets uh as people put in their jelly beans but nah shy away speaking of quarterbacks so bikes famp page put this together uh this is cool former Vikings quarterback in current Miami Northwestern High School which was his Al modder took over as head coach Ted brdar came in to play quarterback uh for his team in a practice you don’t have to create all these massive plays just get the ball to your guys and you teddy saying that line is going to piss off a lot of Vikings fans because I mean that was Teddy’s game at at Louisville I I mean he he wasn’t a guy with the strongest arm in the world he wasn’t the biggest guy he wasn’t the fastest guy but he would beat you with his mind and I I just remember like 20133 Louisville just every Thursday night it seemed like Louisville was always playing like Florida State or other ACC schools and it’s just like he would he would just be dialed in he would just lead comebacks and just like Teddy two gloves two gloves more love just chucking up to Devonte Parker did you know Teddy play with Devonte Parker uh but yeah it’s unfortunate because I I like the way he progressed his first two seasons and he was PR he was primed to make a a big leap in your three he added some good weight he had some more velocity on his deep ball uh and then it just his leg fell off it’s just really unfortunate man yeah but what’s amazing is that so Teddy’s career should have been done just over fenito and I I know people say like well he was never a starter again and blah blah blah blah blah that was a career altering injury you know much like the louisan injury actually even worse so Teddy basically tore every ligament that he had and he had struck damage that that is a massive massive injury so the fact that he even came back to be a backup and be a saw after veteran backup for a number of years I mean that’s pretty damn amazing it’s pretty damn amazing so I also Teddy is probably one of the most cerebral High football IQ players out there he was always going to beat you with his mind he wasn’t going to beat you with his arm Talent like he doesn’t have an Anthony Richardson arm uh but he’s going to impart a lot of wisdom so I’m glad that he’s getting into the coaching game and I think it’s just a matter of time I I mean eventually I I feel like Teddy does have the temperament and he has the offensive Acumen that he will be like just a offensive Guru in college football or or maybe slide up to the NFL we’ll see but rooting for five getting it done man there you go uh Al he was slicing dicing those high school kids by the way woooo hey Teddy hey Teddy got better work in that defense man that’s all uh speaking of Defense so the Wolves tomorrow better put the clamps on jokic game seven and Denver for all the marbles and an uh in his uh say he puts out like one tweet per series nine more locked in number five and nine more wins uh and the wolves do hoist that that Larry O’Brien Trophy and so ant putting up the seven could be the best or the worst thing uh depending on what happens on Sunday but I got faith man and the fact that I I know that it’s Minnesota and we’re all into moral victories whatever but they they did have a great showing in game six whooping some ass making sure that hey last three games were ass thank you it happens but we’re not we don’t have any quit us and we’re going to take it to him and we’re going to win game seven just like we’ won in Denver games one and two that atmosphere is going to be electric I can’t wait to see what happens also it’s been a weird ass series every single game has been an ass whooping like there hasn’t been like a close competitive game we’ll see what happens in game seven uh speaking of Wolves game so Jordan Addison uh among a bunch of other Vikings sitting Courtside sitting in sweets uh so show him the love and it’s good to see man and also with otaa is a mandatory mini camp coming up so a lot of guys are going to be in town so some Western Conference Finals some NBA Finals Courtside like I would love to see Justin fraking Jefferson and Jordan Addison and Kevin Garnett sitting Courtside alog together Legends also so I’m not a golf fan and I’m not even sure uh with all the details but the Scotty sheffler being arrested in Louisville thing now it now the context is that’s it’s a really unfortunate story because uh I believe a pedestrian was killed uh and then there was a big police backup getting into the golf course uh you know Scotty sheffler was detained you know trying to get onto the course and so Twitter was made for moments like this because the jokes around Scotty sheffler were just amazing like it was an absolute Master Class people are so funny people are so damn creative and it’s just it’s just amazed man again I don’t even follow golf uh before yesterday I couldn’t even pick out Scotty Sheffer from from a lineup like the only golfers I know are dialon oh Tiger Woods John Daly because he’s my spirit animal uh Arnold Palmer who who has that cocktail uh or the alcoholic cocktail as well as uh Ben Hogan nailed it uh who else oh Rory mroy sucks or no is he is he good I don’t know oh oh an inside Trader uh Phil Phil Mickelson he been Billy Walters doing some business I don’t know man but uh yeah the whole thing about this is like ah I don’t know like the jokes like uh Scotty Sheffer prism Mike also his mug shot was already automatically on t-shirts I I feel like that’s that’s the business you got to be in where if you can have the manufacturing process where you can get very quick turnarounds and fast shipping if you can get a a t-shirt in the hands of someone the next day after some Touchstone cultural event that’s going to make dough because I I feel like I I feel like screen printers like it it takes a while but I don’t know maybe we’ll start a business so there you go anyways that’s it uh Vikings news dump on this beautiful Saturday you guys know the best you what to do skull production value
