Day one: "Repeat after me... 'I'm open, Dawg!'"

Great player does not mean great coach, but I do not see how you can not give him a chance.

Everyone said he was a really smart receiver. But, that being said, it's one thing to know something... it's another to be able to teach it to others. Plus, he wasn't all that coachable himself, was he?

Coach Randy Moss would probably stand as the 3rd best WR on this roster...

Not sure how I feel about this one...

Cultural Fit? Plays to his inherent strengths as a person vs an athlete?

Proceed with caution I say...

I don't think Zim would approve of his "I coach when I want to coach" attitude. I couldn't imagine Moss having the attention span for something like coaching.

If nothing else, caterers all over the state are on notice.

Et tu Brute? I understand this coming from outsiders, but from a Viking fan? The question posed to Randy was "Does Cris Carter motivate you to play." Randy was the world's worst communicator. He responded "I play when I want to play." Obviously, what he meant was that he didn't need anyone to motivate him; he motivated himself. But the way it came out made him sound like a total POS.

The most gifted receiver to ever play the game. And one of the smartest, too. But can he coach? That's a whole 'nother thing.

Sorry if my comments doesn't sit well with you (or anyone else), but I grew tired of Randy's antics. He was a superstar WR, but his attitude really bothered me. He lost me when he walked off the field during that Skins game.

Unlike many Viking fans, I wasn't sorry to see him leave (both times). I just wish they could've gotten more in return.

I enjoy listening to him as a commentator; he seems to have matured, but no way could I ever envision him back coaching the Vikings.

More like "Short notice". Let the food fly...
