#41, #73 and #83 for Clay Matthews? Dude...just...dude...while Rey was still there no less...

It's like Teddy T just wants to prove how clever he can be more than he wants to win.

I like Matthews, but is he the pass rush specialist we need? Is he worth mortgaging the meat of our draft picks for? I don't think so.

Also, I got a spliff, wanna smoke with BJ Raji and I? rawr...

at least the Vikings continued their tradition of solid character guys with Percy Harvin.

The Minnesota Vikings...they are who we thought they were

Hey Eric,

Decided to have some fun with this. It's a humor piece about Survivor for athletes. I had a blast writing it, and I hope you get a good laugh out of it :)

If you get the time, I'd love to hear what you think. If not, no worries.

You don't know anything about Super Mario, but that's one hell of a good answer to the Gretzky/Orr debate :D

Good articles man, honestly really good. Beware the pitfalls of the homer, but I'm always saying things like that right? Glad I came and read your stuff!

Hey Eric,

I think the best part of sports is the passion involved, so I wrote an opinionated piece on why I think a perfect athlete is capable of crying, both win or lose. I’d love for you to check it out and let me know what you think. If you’re too busy, no worries.

Thanks, as always, for the support! It’s much appreciated ☺
