Brian Robison: Up North, But Always Down to Earth
#1
Here’s an awesome read, shows why BRob is so beloved:

Minnesota stretches 79,610 square miles and features 11,842 lakes.
The lure of bass fishing prompted Brian Robison to explore the far reaches of Minnesota on land and water.
Everywhere he went, whether it was up north, out west or in the southeast corner, he was welcomed by the people of the state.
He hugged them right back, smiled for pictures, inked autographs and gladly talked football and life, becoming a folksy hero.
Strangers quickly and easily became friends, professional guides became brothers and hosts became extended family members. His time was their time, a shared experience often in scenic environments.
“My 11 years here and many journeys have taken me all over this great state and allowed me to meet some amazing people,” Brian hand-wrote in a letter to announce his retirement from football.
B-Rob gave plenty of thanks in the letter, mentioning several friends around the state by name.
His letter prompted Vikings.com to reach out and gather stories of their journeys together.

Wow...  Heck of a read.  I don't think we'll ever have a guy like Brian on the team again.  One of a kind.
