This comes from the article on Gedeon
https://purpleptsd.com/ben-gedeon-is-def...ectations/

Obviously
the article focuses on Gedeon and how he has exceeded expectations in
the run game.  But to me, the two gfycat images are more about the
unselfish play of the defense.  And more surprisingly at the willingness
of Trae Waynes to stick his nose in there.  He said to have a lack of
toughness, not a willing tackler from what I remember of his draft
report.

But look at the two images. 

Is he at the facility working/rehabbing?   Is he in meetings?  At practice?  Games?

Does anyone in the know - know?

This came up on another Forum so I thought connected folks like Tom Moore would know.

Thx

We had these two the last time I posted.






The blond one went to Canada with a single lady. She’s doing
great.
 





That left us with Sammy.








My wife had tried to drop him off for transport to Pennsylvania
in October but he freaked out and she brought him back home. We went out of
town for a week so we had him stay with another foster lady and he did really
well.
 
Fast forward to Thanksgiving week. Sammy is scheduled to
transport on that Friday. On Wednesday I take him to the vet so he can get
clearance for transport. I get there at 9:30 and find out the vet won’t be in
until 10:00. I had a few errands to knock out so I leave him there. I barely
get out of the parking lot when they call me and tell me that Sammy got loose
and he’s hiding under a sink and won’t let anyone near him. I go back and he
comes right out, tail wagging and happy as a clam.
 
I stayed with him until the vet comes and he’s given the
green light. I tell the vet that I don’t see any way possible he transports
Friday. Me and my wife talk about it. She wants to at least try and I’m like “good
luck”.
 
She takes him Friday. They try a few trial runs loading him
in the van and then give it a shot. He seems to be alright. She comes home. We’re
both a bundle of nerves. We really got attached to him.
 

















My wife keeps in contact with the van driver. He keeps
reporting back that Sammy’s doing really well. They get to Pennsylvania and his
new foster family falls in love with him. They‘re sending pictures of him
getting belly rubs and treats. So, everything’s cool. Eases our mind. They’re
gonna take him to see his sister (who we fostered before him) and we’re looking
forward to hear about that.


While we had Sammy, we got this guy. He’s about 7 months old
and was just dropped off at a shelter.














He’s gonna be a GREAT dog for someone. He transported to
Vermont about 2 weeks ago. Very sweet, good-looking dog.

Getting the vikings on TV for the 5th straight week.  It is good to be relevant

In the second half of the Minnesota Vikings’ 14-9 win over the Atlanta Falcons, they dominated possession of the ball, at one point killing more than eight minutes of the clock on a single drive. At the center of their success was Pat Shurmur’s play calling and Case Keenum’s ability to make reads both pre and post snap.http://www.1500espn.com/vikings-2/2017/12/film-review-keenums-called-gunslinger-quick-reads-keyed-success/

At the end of our chat, I asked Randle about the 2017 Vikings. He still lives in Minnesota and knows plenty about the current team, so I was curious if he had any specific thoughts about a 10-2 team that is doing a lot of things well right now.
Randle singled out one player — not surprisingly a defensive player — for the target of much of his specific praise.
“Everson Griffen reminds me of myself, but he has Linval Joseph next to him. Guys like Linval Joseph, you don’t just find guys like that on every team,” Randle said. “Those are the kinds of players who come to work and maybe don’t get the thrills and satisfaction Griffen gets, but you need a guy like that on your team. He’s a guy that does it day in, day out. For guys who played in the National Football League like me, I know that when you talk about the Minnesota Vikings you have to talk about Linval Joseph. He is not a man, he is men. That dude is a load.”
He’s not a man, he is men.
I’ll be thinking about that one for a long time. Nicely done, John Randle.

Peterson's worth was undeniable five years ago when he won NFL Most Valuable Player award while carrying the Vikings into the playoffs. Sadly, his value today is equally unmistakable.
