Then maybe he should retire.

Dogra is a #### boy.

Peterson can retire. Would that in better interests of his client?

Dogra is a #### boy, but it's pretty clear he's doing what Adrian asks of him. So by extension, Adrian sure seems like a #### boy too.

Probably because the Vikings aren't likely to restructure his contract to give him more guaranteed money.

Go ahead. I dare you.

#Vikings owner Mark Wilf on AP: "He's an important part of the Minnesota Vikings and we look forward to him being part of our team in 2015."
Seems like they're just trolling Peterson and Dogra now. :lol:

Haha. You are not wrong on that end Frosted.


I am tired of all this nonsense. I hope Peterson retires. He deserves it.

Or i hope he starts getting better advice. There has to be someone in his camp who thinks differently than his agent. The thing is, no matter where he goes, there will always be people who wont be supportive of him. Any team would have done the same i imagine.

I just have very little respect for AP or his agent anymore. What do we owe this guy? If anything he owes us a season and possibly a playoff trip for being an idiot. As I said before, it's just not a healthy situation to have him around here. He clearly doesn't want to be here. Just like Harvin didn't. Give them what they want, move on and continue to build this team.

That Harvin trade essentially gave us Xavier Rhodes and more. By giving up a good player doesn't mean we're destined to fail or can't replace the guy to some extent. Take a hike Adrian

I would call Peterson a putz, but I don't think that shows enough respect for putzes.

Can we trade him to Antarctica? Do they have a team there?

If it wasn't clear enough already, now on the record:
Adrian Peterson's agent spent an hour holding court Monday in the lobby of the swanky hotel where NFL owners are gathered this week, but Ben Dogra would allow just one comment for the record.

"We want out of Minnesota," Dogra told USA TODAY Sports.

If he wanted a ring then maybe he shouldn't have fumbled his chance away against the saints.
