never understood people's preoccupation with keeping things on topic, myself...of course that's probably because I was born off on a tangent and have been jumping from one to another ever since.

If God had wanted us to be linear thinkers, he would have made flat abs and not rounded buttocks the seat of our character.

But when you have MODS specifically telling people to put it back on topic and then turn around and contribute to it, I like to rub it in their face every chance I get

Off Topic Posting:
[ul]It has always been my belief that a successful discussion board is primarily based on its members willingness and desire to make it succeed.

If members choose to respond to off topic posts, the discussion board will fail.

If members choose to look past off topic posts and re-focus the direction of said thread back on topic, the discussion board will succeed and be a pleasant place for everyone.

Something else I've learned through my experience is people who like to flame others, make repeated off topic posts and simply cause chaos; there goal is to get everyones attention. If everyone ignores their posts and carries on like they do not exist, I assure you, the thread will get back on topic and your experience here will be splendid.

There are times when the moderating team will step in and remedy the issue. However, we as a community can not expect that team to babysit the entire website. That is a unreasonable and selfish request.

If Member A makes an off topic post and Member B responds to it instead of the threads topic. BOTH members are at fault. [/ul]

If the Vikings would have just lost the two games they should have, everyone could put their sanitary napkins away. Nice show of emotions lately Zero, I didn't know you had those abilities.

Vikings players use sanitary napkins on the field? Kinky! When do they change them? On 30-second timeouts?

Are you picking on me? We are the one using sanitary napkins! We're a bunch of cry baby pussies sometimes. But had the Vikings lost those games everything would be better.

For the love of ... well whatever you love. I don't care if Barry Sanders, in his prime was our RB. We'd still suck at running the ball. Until we can keep defenders OUT OF THE BACKFIELD, it isn't going to matter who the RB is.

Yes, Grant could be better, but he is CERTAINLY not the problem here. I think the middle of our O line sucks at run blocking AND our play calling doesn't mistify anyone. We need to run block successfully and mix up the formations from which we run. When the blocking is on, Grant does well. Could Jackson be any better? I dont know? He's getting knocked on his butt in the backfield as well.

Natural surfaces slowed Sanders down. Especially in December and January.

What was his average on dome? Where are you finding this?

Edit, you take too long and unlikely to do it :)
57 games, open stadium = 78.5
102 games, closed stadium = 102

76 100 yard games, dayum!

3	19-Sep	@ DAL 	W   20-17 	1	1	40	194	4.9	28
7	12-Oct	@ TB 	W   27-9 	1	1	24	215	9	82T 	
13	23-Nov	IND 	W   32-10 	1	1	24	216	9	80T 	
13	24-Nov	@ MIN 	W   34-14 	1	1	23	220	9.6	45T 	
11	13-Nov	TB 	W   14-9 	1	1	26	237	9.1	69

His 5 biggest games ... I think four were in domes.

I'm not sure how accurate this is because he only played 57 games on grass and a whopping 102 on turf. He had a lot more opportunity to rack up yards on turf than grass.

lol...
10 games at Lambeau Field (or one or two County Stadium) - 1,089 for 108.9 per game average.
9 games at the Pontiac Silverdome - 970 for 107.7778 per game average.

I'd take the 100+ plus a game at Lambeau. 🙂
