It's not local. I've seen it several times here in TX. It reminded me of just how unique his speech patterns are. West Virginia put it's stamp on him.

And Texas apparently has put "it's" stamp on your punctuation.
Anyone interested in seeing (and hearing) more Randy should watch the 30 for 30 entitled "Rand University." Good stuff. Really brings home the old adage “before you criticize a man, walk a mile in his shoes."

@christomasson Teddy bridgewater wants to get mike Wallace more involved he did hit him for a deep ball today in practice. Mike Wallace has just one catch for two yards in the preseason but teddy bridgewater said the Vikings are holding back some stuff
@christomasson Teddy bridgewater says he can give some advice to the rookies on the team such as Waynes and Kendricks

Hrm.
@Andrew_Krammer Is Trae Waynes ready to start Week 1? DC George Edwards: "That's what we're aiming for." #Vikings

I can think of a few different ways to interpret that answer. I wonder how George Edwards meant it.

That's funny. You're right, my typos skyrocketed when I moved to TX!
My comment was not meant to criticize Randy, or West Virginia for that matter, at all. On the contrary.
There was quite a lot of discussion here on the board about the "Rand University" show back when it originally aired.

I think so far we all have the best of intentions, but the way this board has went this week I would really hate to throw a Randy Moss discussion on top of it...

Wow, you hate Randy Moss, don't you?

I think it would be silly for any team to sign Moss. His last few years in the league he was pretty darn terrible. Now he is a few years older, slower, and if things don't go his way he had always been known to throw a tantrum. Also, he is eligible for the HOF in a couple years and is a sure fire first ballot guy. He should just stay retired. In my opinion.

Thanks for posting this. I was wondering how Diggs was comparing to others. Dude from SF is getting all of the attention.

Sherels is one of those guys I really like, and think he a good player. If Digg takes his job, Sherels may be in trouble. But you also have to play your bext guy and Diggs is killing it.

Sherels is also the best gunner on the team. Can return kicks or punts. And plays a different position than Sherels. There are a few receivers on the roster that should get the boot before Sherels.

I agree... I will be upset if Sherels is cut. He can do a lot more than return punts, and he is one of the best gunners in the league, not just on the team.
