  $200 to watch a game on TV
Posted by: MaroonBells - 07-21-2025, 01:24 PM - Forum: The Longship - Replies (4)

At $200 a pop this is not something most could afford to do very often. But damn, after seeing U2 at the Sphere a couple years ago, I'm a little intrigued about watching live football in a similar setting. There are currently locations in Dallas and LA and more coming. Anyone been to one? Click the video in the link.

1. Minnesota Vikings
The biggest mover across our entire rankings was the Minnesota front seven, which jumped 24 spots to No. 1 this year. The Vikings added both Jonathan Allen and Javon Hargrave to a defensive front that finished sixth in pressure rate and fourth in sacks last season.

Has some pain in his throwing shoulder that won't go away. KOC University candidate in 2026?

#Titans QB Will Levis will undergo surgery on his throwing shoulder, sources say, ending his 2025 season. Surgery is July 29.

Levis has elected to have the procedure to ensure long-term health, based on medical opinions, one that should help him be ready for the 2026 season.

A blow for Detroit, but they did draft Tyleik Williams so it won't be as bad as it could have been.

  Purple Insider: Its QB whispering time

https://www.purpleinsider.football/p/cam...whispering

Interesting article contrasting the book 'The Quarterback Whisperer' by Bruce Arians and how it relates to what KOC is doing with JJM and JJM's innate/tangible abilities as it related to success and the position.

  How's everyone feeling with TC swiftly approaching?
Posted by: StickierBuns - 07-17-2025, 08:49 AM - Forum: The Longship - Replies (43)

Personally, very excited and yet so much is riding on McCarthy. We've all discussed what appear to be improvements in areas of weakness this offseason and in the Draft. O'Connell was named Coach of the Year, extensions for both the HC and GM. Nobody is going to out-strategize KOC or BFlo. Ownership continues to be very solid and consistently so. We know how the players feel about the organization, culture, staff and the facilities, top notch. Brez continues to be incredible with navigating contracts and the cap. U.S. Bank is an amazing game-day atmosphere and the Skol Chant is the best thing going in the NFL IMO. It seems to be all aligning for something big. 

If there ever was a time to rip off the scar tissue and expose that vulnerable purple heart to the harsh elements of real hope, its right now. We've never been able to have nice things....but that's only true until it isn't. I've been thru hell and back like any long time Minnesota Vikings fan, but change is in the air IMO. Buckle in for the good times.
