This site rocks. - Caactorvike - 11-08-2025
I mentioned on MB’s thread that I had an operation yesterday. So, I’m not feeling any too good physically today. But I AM feeling a lot of gratitude for this site. Thank you Vikesrock, for reminding me of the Viking Update days! I even remember its precursor the Viking Report. I think it was called Tommy Kramer’s Viking Report which morphed into the old Update. I loved those. And Purple Thoughts and now Vikefans. Vikefans has combined all that came before it—up-to-the-minute news, humor, and truly knowledgeable fans who teach me a lot. I love the back and forth on current topics and the effort to do it without bringing politics into it. That’s a tall order in these divided times.
This site brightens my day. I always look forward to reading the latest from
VikeFans. Thanks for all who post, and a special shout out the the Mods!

Wish u the best Ivar...Healing and successful recovering
I've had a couple major surgeries myself this calendar year, so feel free to pm me. We can commiserate if that'll help out.

Hope you're coming off IR and that the Dr has you in your 21 day designated for return window....

Noted.
I'll see if I can rectify that.
They seemed to kinda get ignored after I'd done 'em for a few years, but I'd known you were still reading...I'd have kept it up. Big fan, it's kinda great seeing a fellow Vikings fan on any given show at any given time. That's seriously fun, as a viewer...!

Heal up, Ivar!
BOOM

There's a blast from the past......good to see you, man!
Quick recovery, Ivar! Not sure my wife believes me after all this time when I show her your commercials/shows and that you post on the board

I hope you get well soon.
I remember Bob Lurtsema's Viking Update in the late 80s. Had to pay extra to get it before the game. I got Anthony Carter's autograph on the cover with his picture on it after we invaded Tampa Bay.
