What?

I have no dog in this race, but that is two straight posts you made that were less than clear.


As for the topic at hand, it's good to know the team and Peterson can at least communicate and moves can be made. Honestly, that's good enough for now.

I'm more confused now about whats going on between AD, the NFL, and the Vikings. I really hope the Vikings have enough time to have AD test the market. Not because I really want to get rid of him (even though it wouldn't brake my heart), but to see what the market will pay him, and that he may have to take drop in pay with us, since he is still under contract. But by the next time i check this post AD could be the starting RB for the Packers. How much would that suck lol.

You shut your mouth. :evil: That's just blasphemy. There's no way Rick would trade him within the division unless whatever GM offered a trade for insane value. Even then I can't imagine it would ever happen.

AD in a Packer uniform? :spank:

It's the stuff of acid-tripping night terrors.

I don't know I would trade AD for Lacey right now at this point in their careers :)

I wouldn't. If both play all 16 games the next three years I'll bet dollars to donuts Peterson has better stats at season's end.

Somebody stop this madness.

Well there is no way in hell that they would ever do that but also consider the difference in salary/cap room and 6 years younger with none of the BS. I would definately make that trade.

Can you please share some of what you are smoking? There is no way in hell I would even consider that trade. AD>>>>Lacy. The biggest reason Lacy is as productive as he has been last season is because of Rodgers, without the best QB in the league he is not nearly as good as AP.
