This site rocks.
I mentioned on MB’s thread that I had an operation yesterday. So, I’m not feeling any too good physically today. But I AM feeling a lot of gratitude for this site. Thank you Vikesrock, for reminding me of the Viking Update days! I even remember its precursor the Viking Report. I think it was called Tommy Kramer’s Viking Report which morphed into the old Update. I loved those. And Purple Thoughts and now Vikefans. Vikefans has combined all that came before it—up-to-the-minute news, humor, and truly knowledgeable fans who teach me a lot. I love the back and forth on current topics and the effort to do it without bringing politics into it. That’s a tall order in these divided times.
This site brightens my day. I always look forward to reading the latest from
VikeFans. Thanks for all who post, and a special shout out the the Mods!

Wish u the best Ivar...Healing and successful recovering
I've had a couple major surgeries myself this calendar year, so feel free to pm me. We can commiserate if that'll help out.
Hurry-up Vikings, we ain't getting any younger!
Here's hoping for some quick, thorough recovery...and I'll be watching some of your MANY TV appearances this weekend!
KOC, JJM, Flores...make a good plan, or you'll be following Kwesi....

Noted.
I'll see if I can rectify that.
They seemed to kinda get ignored after I'd done 'em for a few years, but I'd known you were still reading...I'd have kept it up. Big fan, it's kinda great seeing a fellow Vikings fan on any given show at any given time. That's seriously fun, as a viewer...!
KOC, JJM, Flores...make a good plan, or you'll be following Kwesi....
I hope you get well soon.
I remember Bob Lurtsema's Viking Update in the late 80s. Had to pay extra to get it before the game. I got Anthony Carter's autograph on the cover with his picture on it after we invaded Tampa Bay.

Well wishes and stay strong. Sometimes indulging what you enjoy mentally can alleviate the physical. I enjoy this site as well when there's no
politics and immature barbs thrown back and forth. Primarily it's all football which is a good escape.
Stay strong and heal up soon. SKOL
Ivar, I missed this in the other thread, but here's to a speedy and full recovery! Prayers and well wishes headed your way.
Why isn't Chuck Foreman in the Hall of Fame?
Oh man, surgery sucks. I hope you’re feeling a little better today and a little better every day after that. Every time I see you in a movie, Ivar, I still say “I know that guy! That guy's a friend of mine!” Always proud to say that. Hoping for a speedy recovery and a return to full health, my friend…not to mention a return to routine and a bit of normalcy for you and your family.

Get better soon my friend...

The bad news is that he has a doctor that doesn't appear to know anything about medicine.
