Good luck to him though.
Really, I would love to read that quote

Booing on these occasions is a gesture all in fun. Now, if they threw beer or cups at him or something, that would be classless.
Well, I certainly wouldn't call it classy.

Ha! I hope they give him a participation trophy at halftime, gosh darnit!

you know people are going to boo.. many Fans believe he wasted a lot of A.P.'s career
I think Frazier has more blame in that area, personally...

I hope he doesn't get booed but wouldn't be surprised if he does. He's a good guy but just a bad QB.

QB's are like Coaches, they get too much credit and blame for the team. Hey, you give me twenty million dollars
and you can boo me, all day long. Open the flood gates of irrational hatred and malice. I will smile and go buy
a decent sized home on a golf course with all my needs met, and struggle to deal with the suffering; while the interest
compounds.

Frazier didn't build those deep, mighty rosters.
If someone's dealt a pair of twos, they aren't going to beat a full house and there's no bluffing your way to victory in pro football (although, to the extent that's possible, the 2012 Vikes probably did it).

Considering he was booed mercilessly while he was a Viking, I see no reason why it would be different now. It probably won't last long though, he's a 2nd stringer and it's preseason.

Laughs my youngest does a great impersonation of Frazier, "Christan Ponder is our Quaterback!"
