oh my god, they blew it again. the vikings just signed emmanuel the same cfl wr we were SUPPOSED to be signing. i mean for gods sake stupid dumb ass people, you cant sign anyone here cuz of the stupid cba but yet you let the freaking best wr in the cfl slip through your stupid non football skilled hands. way to go!!!

The guy has a choice. We couldnt *MAKE* him come here. If he didnt want to come here, then screw him.

Not totally true. It has to do with selling an organization, its direction and how an FA fits in and is a key piece to getting us where we need to go. Just like recruiting in college

WHat if he grew up a Vikings fan? There are many factors. Plus, it is not like this guy is a Reggie White Free Agent.

He is a CFL WR, who wasnt even the best CFL WR. He is no garauntee.

besides that if hes on the vikings reciever squad they'll likely be cutting one of there receivers, probably camarillo

"It's been fun to get the reaction of visiting coaches to the color of their locker room. Most don't notice it, but those that do are in trouble. . . . When I talk to an opposing coach before a game and he mentions the pink walls, I know I've got him. I can't recall a coach who has stirred up a fuss about the color and then beat us.” Hayden Fry

They might cut him. Cammarillo is garaunteed. This guy is not. Most CFL players do not make it in the NFL.

never even heard of the guy.

yeah i know all the reasons blah blah blah, they didnt even make a run at him, 1.8 mill for 3yrs with 75k signing bonus??? seriously couldnt they handle paying abit more for him??? i just have completely lost all trust and faith in this organization. as a fan i will continue to watch and root, but i just dont think this management has a freakin clue on who to get, how to get them, or anything. its retread after retread.. im talking fa here except for dansby they suck. Draft wasnt bad with misi and odrick. I just dont think this team will put together any deals to bring in a good fast wr or a qb. i dont know maybe hopefully i will be wrong, but they just seem to be very disorganized and half hearted.

Kind of makes you wish for the days of Jay Fielder, huh? Ohhh...maybe not.

I can think of alot of reasons for your thread title.......not signing some obscure CFL WR is not one of em.

This is an outrageous tragedy.

We are not in a position to let ALL-PRO’s go like this.

Someone call Ross and let him know.

Just ridiculous.
