Could Adrian Peterson be the best RB of all time?
Joe replied to DaveW's topic in Minnesota Vikings Talk
I genuinely think you're a staunchy d-bag...... So yeah, I'm okay with it. I'm sorry I don't think Adrian Peterson at age 27 is the best running back in NFL history. He is an absolutely amazing runner. What he is doing this year is absolutely ridiculous, especially considering his knee injury the previous year. But considering what backs like Ladanian Tomlinson and Marshall Faulk have done recently in both the running and passing games, I don't think he is quite as good as them. Adrian rarely sees the field on 3rd and longs because of his inefficiencies as a pass catcher and pass blocker - if you watched the game today, you should have seen both of these. -
Pot calling the kettle black much? Yeah.......

ohhhh I get it..... haha so clever

for cutting Ryan Longwell and drafting Blair Walsh.

hahahahahahahaahahahahahahahahahahaha Tebow can't beat out Mark Sanchez, what the **** would make you think he is better than Christian Ponder? Holy ****, Tim Tebow is not a QB in the NFL. Get the **** over it. Seriously, why not just direct snap to Adrian Peterson at that point?

Joe replied to DaveW's topic in Minnesota Vikings Talk
Riiiiiiiiiiiiight....... Peterson is a bad pass blocker. He is a terrible receiver as well. Correct, he has fixed his fumbling problems. I'm just saying, you trying to say he is already, the best running back in NFL history, is ridiculous - to which I brought up the point of would you call Calvin Johnson the best receiver in NFL history already??? Peterson is ridiculously good, but his lack of talent in the aforementioned areas, I personally can't say he will be as good as LT or Faulk - the two gold standards in modern day running backs. Ray Rice I think is the most complete package in the NFL right now, and really look forward to seeing what C.J. Spiller and Trent Richardson can do in the upcoming years. Spiller runs like Peterson. Just a beast. -

Joe replied to DaveW's topic in Minnesota Vikings Talk
He can't block worth a ****, he used to fumble a ton, and he is almost non existent in the passing game. This is what I meant by not holding a torch to other halfbacks in the league. He is undoubtedly the best runner in the league. I'm youngish, but in my years, I'd take Ladainian Tomlinson, Marcus Allen, and Marshall Faulk over Peterson. And none of those over Sanders. -

Joe replied to DaveW's topic in Minnesota Vikings Talk
Is Calvin Johnson the best wide receiver of all time? I think that puts this thread into context. ****, Peterson can't hold a torch to a lot of RB's currently because of his early fumblitis and his inability to block/ineffectiveness in the passing game. It's debatable if he will even be the best running back in tomorrow's game, let alone of all time. The thread should be, is Adrian Peterson the best pure runner in NFL history? -
Hypothetical...... Would you trade Justin Morneau for Brian Matusz and PTBNL - Kevin Gausmann? I think I would.

Here's An Idea - Twins acquire Santana and R.A. Dickey

Haha. I'm assuming this is complete snark. Seriously, I miss BYTO. -
after being part of the 70s oil boom and working it till joining the military and returning after my hitch there were some stupid people not all worked in the boom , where money is sh*t will follow,dealers hoes thiefs republicans ,but besides these most of the oil trash people were pretty good people, last may i sold my farmstead rather then continue to deal with the inflation and rebuilding of minot ...if you dont walk around chasing hoes or asking for drugs and being a little respectful you should have no problem in the basin , my nephew who i took out to my rig when he was 5 years old is now nieghbors youngest tool push and keeps asking uncle john to come run a rig for him , i loved growing up in the patch , starting to sismographing at age 16 and moving to rigs as a 17 year old ..save your money have some fun give ,em 8 hours of work for 8 hours of pay ,and be careful sh*t happens ,good luck I have a college degree..... I don't rig or frac. I don't mean that in a snotty way, but it takes a special individual to live that life. I've been out there plenty too. Enough in 09' to claim residency. you know how many college degrees i had working for me?, there every kind in the boom , but no matter what have fun , if your a hunter thats great country for birds and deer some nice muletails out there Well, in my experiences out there, High School diplomas are few and far between. We work 7 days a week. Pretty much only time we get is to drink at night.

I was supposed to be leaving tomorrow to head to the western Williston Basin for a couple weeks for work. It would have been my fifth time in the last four years. However, for the second time, I was called and told I would not be leaving because there was a murder at the hotel I would be going to. The first time this happened, it was two Halliburton workers who had a knife fight in the hotel lobby. This time apparently a pimp killed a non paying Mexican. I'm curious if there are any western NoDak residents on the board. How do you like living with idiot drillers/fraccers/welders? How has your life changed in the last 5 years? I've gotten to see some pretty cool stuff in my run ins in Minot, Williston, New Town, Stanley, and Tioga..... But ****, the only reason anyone must live in that area is to get away from people. Has to be awful.

Just this, is an great example for the reasons I do not care about BA. You cannot rank the same guy 6th best in a AA league and 7th best in a high A league. Just ridiculous... Since you obviously couldn't figure it out, let me give you a scenario. Jurickson Profar, the #1 prospect in baseball plays in the Eastern League and is ranked #1 in the Eastern League with Dylan Bundy #2. Profar skips to the majors, or goes to the PCL. Dylan is then gets promoted to the International League where he is now the #1 prospect in the International League, while being the #2 prospect in the Eastern League. This is just a scenario, but it is how it works.

Pretty similar to Rise Against. Not my thing, but your production is pretty good man!

Brendon Ayanbadejo tackles the subject of gay marriage
Joe replied to Brock Beauchamp's topic in The Sports Bar
It already got 1.2 million reads on Deadspin within the first 20 hours and MSNBC interviewed him last night as well. I'm pretty sure this is the largest story deadspin has had since the Favre Scandal. Kluwe is awesome, after his career I hope he writes somewhere. His live chat on deadspin a month or two ago was golden. I have no doubt he will become some sort of writer. While I don't think he has been on much lately, Kluwe is/was a fixture on the Half-Assed morning show sports segment since becoming a Viking. His wit is uncanny for sure. You can tell the guy is pretty sharp as well. -
I haven't really heard anything good lately outside of Childish Gambino's ROYALTY. Anyone have any suggestions? Muse's new song is pretty good. I need a new workout mix too. I know this is bad, but does anyone listen to dubstep? I need some dubstep tracks too.

If I remember right, he should know better....

I think the Twin's have the top end hitting talent to be in the top 10, but obviously there really isn't any pitching. If Berrios is excellent at Elizabethon, he'll crack the top 100, but he'll be at the back end for sure. I also think a lot of you are discrediting Aaron Hicks. He's putting up the same numbers he did coming off his top 20 ranking by b.a. I'd guess he is top 40 again. Then Buxton and Sano will both be top 15. Gibson could also sneek into the 90's

SEAN BERGMAN This would have never happened at BYTO.....

How the **** does Sean Bergman go unnamed in this thread?!? You all should be ashamed.

http://www.milb.com/milb/stats/stats.jsp?pos=SS&sid=milb&t=p_pbp&pid=593871 Can someone give me a reason why he isn't being talked about heavily in the forums? I know everyone hits in Elizabethon, but still, if I remember right, he was the highest rated short stop to come out of the Sano international signing class and got a nice chunk of money! He's putting up some very good numbers!
-
Yeah.... That's still not going to happen.
-
Nope. Kinda like the 8 page thread on BJ Hermsen when he got drafted - all Verve's starting.
