No releases from Mark or Zygi on diddly squat - the entire season. 

My $ is on they let Mike go (respectfully and at season end) and RS stays. 

Hurry-up Vikings, we ain't getting any younger!

You're probably right. I think the Wilfs and Spielman are tight.

I think the Wilfs are too afraid of change to ever do anything to put this team over the top. Sound familiar?

I am about spitting mad that I come back on the board at 10AM and I dont find one damn thread or anything on changes being made with the coaching staff or front office.  Damn glad right now that I didnt buy up those season tickets again.

well then that shows a failure on them as an owner then.  with the new rules regarding being able to interview candidates starting last week,  there is no reason to delay,  not to mention the damage that he could still do in his time here,  remember what a meaningless win did to our draft position last year,  and the potential players that it may have cost us.  there are zero good reasons for him to be calling the shots next week and plenty of reasons he shouldnt be.   They just need to fucking do it already,  they have drug their feet to long on this decision as it is.

How do we know they're not already taking to candidates - or at least The Big Tuna?  :p

Zim would have to have been notified, and the media has their ways of knowing shit like this and you know that story would be broke immediately by somebody.

Not sure what they're supposed to say...until they actually have something to say.

For those of you who want Zim gone (I'm one too), this is probably good news. They're certainly aware of the fan and media buzz. So if they were going to keep him, we probably would've heard a comment of endorsement by now.

Yea, so far only the Jags have taken advantage of the earlier HC vetting process.  

It appears to me that we are in no hurry and will wait until our season is complete next week.

Step 1 - GM position - Spelly or no Spelly
Step 2 - let GM decide on HC

reading comprehension has always been a weakness of yours hasnt it.  I said I am glad i didnt,  as in the past,  so i am not stuck with tickets to watch a shit team now.  especially if the rumors of them staying with Zimmer are true and the stench is likely to carry on at least one more season.

I asked Zimmer we can guess how you’re feeling right now - but can you put into words how you’re feeling? His eyes seemed to water a bit and he said “we’ll talk about it next week”

Maybe there's hope?

That makes me sad...And I dont think they should bring Mike back either. 

Writing is on the wall.

Pull the plug Zygi. Personally I would dump them both but Zimmer definitely needs to go
