  Colts tell season ticket holders stop reselling your tickets

Guess the Seahawks did the same thing. Problem is that season tickets are usually the better seats and you can make thousands of dollars selling your tickets over a season. NFL fans are nuts, they'll pay anything to see a game. I get it, you want your home stadium full of home fans for an atmosphere....but when they are such a hot commodity, good luck.

Excellent article. Proved himself so much they cut two 3rd round draft picks.

  Danielle Hunter...dodged that cap bullet?
Posted by: Montana Tom - Yesterday, 05:40 PM - Forum: The Longship - Replies (2)

A quick look at the highest paid NFL players...#21 jumped out at me.
Kwesi dodged that cap hit bullet...how else might one deploy $35.6 million in roster depth?  I believe he did.
Does Hunter deserve a higher salary than JJetta?
I started at #10 below...we all pretty much know who the top ten are.
I highlighted current and former Vikings for comparison reasons...what they signed for elsewhere means a bullet dodged.
In 2025, we basically have both Greenard and Van Ginkel for the same cap hit as Hunter.

Another interesting cap space structure I noticed.
Last year, Greenard's cap hit was $5.7mm.  This season (2025), it's $22.3mm.  In Brez we trust.

  My "look back at" signing to applaud

Lots of upgrades on both lines of scrimmage to get excited about. 

I think this guy is going to have a huge impact:

  Owners to vote on changing NFL playoff seeding
Posted by: MaroonBells - 05-17-2025, 10:48 AM - Forum: The Longship - Replies (4)

Probably won't pass, but it's shocking to me how many people oppose this, most of whom don't seem to understand that division winners are still division winners and automatically get a playoff spot.

  NFL.com: Biggest wildcard in 2025 is JJ McCarthy
Posted by: StickierBuns - 05-17-2025, 04:30 AM - Forum: The Longship - Replies (4)

https://www.nfl.com/news/is-j-j-mccarthy...le-release

"Standing 6-foot-3 and 219 pounds with plus arm talent and athleticism, McCarthy expands the playbook with his skills as a mobile playmaker. He can operate within the pocket or on the move, allowing the Vikings to mix traditional dropbacks with bootlegs and movement-based passes to keep defenders guessing on the launch point. In addition, McCarthy's ability as a runner could enable Minnesota to dial up read-option plays in goal-line and short-yardage situations."

Sums it up at this point: he's got the talent and mindset, just needs to do it. The Summer of JJ starts as all eyes will be on him.

  Kinda OT: Vikings Colors for Brad Keselowski Sunday Night
Posted by: Zanary - 05-16-2025, 09:01 PM - Forum: The Longship - No Replies

So...auto racing is one of the ways I survive between football seasons, and I follow several series.
The NASCAR All-Star Race is this weekend, and some special paint (wrap) schemes have resulted...including the one for Brad Keselowski's Mustang (#6):

I know it's for sponsor "Solomon Plumbing", but it almost couldn't look more like a Vikings tribute car.
