Childress breaks into song for enlightened reporters 

INDIANAPOLIS At some point during Vikings coach Brad Childress media session Friday at the combine the details are slightly fuzzy things took a strange, hard turn. Id be remiss if I didnt pass this along.

Either he forgot to give an update on the injury, or he's a freakin' genius. I know how much VR loves Chilly, so I'm gonna assume he's an idiot that forgot.

Personally, I think he wanted to avoid the whole scenario and distracted the media with the song. Either way, it was hilarious.

BTW, I have no freakin' clue who/what/where Bat Masterson is/was.

The man isn't crazy. He knows what he's doing.

He essentially silences the media here. They don't have the slightest clue what to think. He avoids the question and it's pretty funny.

Same with the stewardess stuff. All the media attention goes right towards him. Not his players. They can focus on the more important things at that point.

Then again, he might just be totally cuckoo.

Formo-

Bat Masterson was a flamer when there was still something wrong with that.


lol


sorry.


I think he wore a derby, and the bat was a cane.

In a friggin' western series, for cripes sake.

12 o'clock high was on at the same time as that girly-man's re-runs.

Gregory Peck introduces himself to the group by explaining that they should all consider themselves already dead...this is guy shit, if you ask me.

Maybe some womenfolk might have watched Bat, but I assure you that every red-blooded American male wouldn't be caught dead watching it, especially with 12 o'clock high on the tube. You had all of three choices back then. We would all walk uphill in the snow (both directions) to the TV to change the channel, with a DIAL...can you imagine? :thumbleft:

In other words, if you don't know who Bat Masterson is, you ain't missed much, and if you want to find out who Chilly SHOULD have referenced instead...

"Have gun, will travel".

Now THAT was the shit!

That's my stance. He knows exactly what he's doing. Which is why I'm starting to REALLY warm up to him. Then you add the fact that every year under Chilly, the Vikings have improved their record by 2 wins each year. 6-10, 8-8, 10-6, 12-4. I'm not going to say the Vikes are gonna be 14-2 next year (if that happens, I'll freak), but anytime you have improvements like that on a consistent basis.. You'll get some fans.

Being an anti-fan of the media, I love how Chilly seems to treat them.

My dad (Army Air Corps "for the duration") hated TV. And he hated almost all war movies, especially the WWII ones. (He also hated the Red Cross, but that's another thread.) And he wasn't much for Gregory Peck generally.

But he really liked 12 O'Clock High. Movie and TV show.

That *was* seriously good shit.

Why the heck it doesn't get shown more nowadays, I have no effin clue. Do people really like to *rewatch* Jim Carrey movies *that* much?

Formo - I enjoyed watching EJ Henderson last year and it was really a shame when he went down. He may have been the difference in that Saints game.

Maybe Chilly is really smarter than we give him credit for. He may have played some psychological tricks with Favre, making him believe he's in control, just to get him on the team. You guys came so close last year.

Oh, and yes, the media should be toyed with. They tend to be self-righteous and are generally pretty annoying as people. Some of the most self-centered people you'll ever meet.

I also agree that there is probably more to Childress than first meets the eye. I live in MN and get inundated with Vikings info. There was one press conference last season (and I can't for the life of me remember what it was about) but Childress was asked a question by the media and gave a long, rambling answer that would have made a politician proud - because he spoke forever and didn't once answer the question. After that there was only silence because nobody had the guts to try to rephrase the question.

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Getting Carter and Nolan Smith in the first round in 2023 was pretty darn good

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : oh fuck me i messed that up
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Jordan Davis was 13th overall
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Carter was 9th overall
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Eagles had 15th and 10th selections, moved to 13 and 9 to get Davis and Carter back to back
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Eagles traded up for Carter, didn't they?
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Obviously he was a huge risk but getting a top 5 talent on the dline in the mid 20s is fortuitous
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Jalen Carter falling into their lap certainly helps
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : And we could only wish to have this type of D
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : It's not like Philly has had low draft picks, but has managed to get themselves a top notch pass rush. We spend so much draft capital of D
packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : another crap halftime show
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : I think it is over, but then I think of Atlanta and want Philly to go in with the same intensity in the second half
