It has been a trying couple of weeks for the Henderson brothers.

The Vikings announced Tuesday that backup linebacker Erin Henderson has been suspended for the next four games for violating the league's policy on performance enhancing substances.

The news comes just six days after Erin's brother E.J. was placed on injured reserve following a gruesome leg injury suffered on Sunday Night Football.

Erin was active against the Bengals Sunday, recording his first two tackles since Week Eight. He will be eligible to return to the team after Minnesota's first playoff game.

LOL I love PFT's comments. I tend to read them, no matter how unfactual they may be (like how some Vikings fans claim they are going to the Super Bowl, and how Packer fans misread an anti-Viking blog that Florio slapped up).. And here are two gems:

Somewhere in a bar in Kenosha...a few Packer fans are wiping the sauce off their bowling shirts and looking at this story...

"Those dirty, cheating Vikings! Suspend them all and move the team to LA as punishment! ...Love Boat...Childress sucks...Favre! Blah blah blah"

Watch the PFT Packer fans try and project this suspension on the entire team.

Ready? GO!

I laugh because I've seen some serious asshattery from a few specific Packer fans on PFT (Bob Nelson, Jimmy Smith). I'm not saying there aren't Viking fans that are asshats (most of them are random posters, though, and not trolls, like the two mentioned above), though.

I watched his interview after his brother got hurt. He really seems like a good fella.

Another link, more details. (link to the link in the link :thumbright: )

I know.. But it gets annoying to hear alot of people, joking or otherwise, say how the Williams' Wall has been loading up on steroids. I may have misinterpreted your statement altogether, though.

Funny thing is, I always thought "Erin" was the name of various cute Irish girls.

If I were a "boy named Sue," I'd probably have some substance abuse/social adjustment problems. And if I had to wear purple on a daily basis, who knows what I would do.
