To much sport is never enough. Its true. I once watched 27 hours straight and wasn't even sore the next day! I play a bit. On the playstation. When the wife lets me. And I babble on twitter almost constantly. Follow me: bendunn43

I am passionate about sports. Oh yes. That needed emphasis. I'll try to explain this a little bit further. In the NRL I support…
It is truly scary to think of the sheer athletisiscm on this team! The fact that they can potentially have a line up of Russel Westbrook, Lebron James, Kevin Durant, Blake Griffin and Tyson Chandler should be illegal. No one under 6’5. All can run the floor like gazelles and they can jump out of the gym!
I love Australia and the Boomers, but the US has this Gold Medal sown up!
Dream Team, but not as you know it
As a Minnesota fan, I’m torn. For the sake of the team’s success I want him to stay. But for the drama and circus that he has created, I want him gone!
I definitely agree that having him in the backfield would aid Teddy dramatically. A two pronged attack of ground and air, with Mike Wallace now in the mix, would be amazing and great to watch. But to what end? To have AP constantly voicing his ‘concerns’ about not trusting the organisation etc? To say that he doesn’t see his future there, and that his wife already wants to be somewhere else?
The thing that sits the worst with me is that he said the organisation turned their back on him. When? When they continued to pay him? When they assisted with his counselling? When they DIDN’T fire him? I think he has to realise that every single team in the league would have done the same thing while the judicial process took its course. To think otherwise is naive at best. Just ask Ray Rice – it could be worse!
Moving forward I find it hard to see how he would fit back into the locker room. He has already disrespected the organisation in my opinion by taking these matters to the media rather than handling them professionally, behind closed doors. How does Teddy comfortably hand off the ball to someone who clearly doesn’t want to be there?
That being said, I fail to see where the Vikes will get the value for him? There is no comparable RB available to do a swap with. There is no RB depth in the draft. But it’s clearly the position that would be of greatest need if management decide to move on. And to be clear, I don’t think the GM is silly enough to release him. It will be a trade if he does leave. You don’t give up a future HOF’er for nothing in return.
Personally I only want people in purple who want to be there. So in that case – see you later AP! Thanks for the memories and please keep your hands (Sticks) off your children!
For Adrian Peterson and the Vikings, breaking up is hard to do
