Calling Chris Cook a failure would be insulting to failure.
Untalented pariah is more fitting.

Meltin’ for Melton
Henry Melton to visit Vikings on Thursday. Story at http://t.co/yCcX4sISAG

Bears DT Henry Melton is scheduled to visit the Vikings on Thurdsay.
If we added Melton, that would likely mark the end of the Kevin Williams era in Minnesota.
Is it September 7th yet?
I’m a fully admitted Vikings homer.
But I also consider myself a realist. A person who can be both subjective while being objective about our favorite football team. And even if I was a full on Vikings pessimist (you know who you are), it’d be hard NOT to be excited about the 2014 season.
The 5-10-1 left a bad taste in our mouths. Mostly because a handful of those games were a play here or there away from us coming out with a W instead of a soul crushing defeat (CHI, CLE, DAL, BAL) or a freakin’ tie to the worst people imaginable (GB).
I didn’t think a full reboot was necessary, I actually thought Leslie had a chance to stay for a 4th year if the defensive staff was overhauled. But looking back now, a factory restore was the better option.
To quote Anthony Anderson’s character from “Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle”, “POOKIE! LET”S BURN THIS MOTHER F*CKA DOWN!”
Linval Joseph. Pat Williams 2.0?
The Vikings signed former Giants defensive tackle Linval Joseph on Tuesday, about an hour and a half into the official opening of free agency (4pm EST). Per ESPN, the contract is a 5-year deal worth $31.5 million.
Joseph (or LJ as we’ll affectionately call him from now on) will be going into his 5th NFL season after spending his first four with the Giants as a 2nd Round pick (46th overall) in the 2010 Draft out of East Carolina.
