The Minnesota Vikings will reportedly sign practice squad quarterback Kyle Sloter to the active roster.

The move might be a precaution or it could be a sign that starting quarterback Sam Bradford won’t be available to start for the Vikings on Sunday against the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Bradford has been limited all week in practice with a knee injury. ESPN reported that the Vikings’ starter had an MRI on the knee this week because of swelling and discomfort.
To open the season, Bradford posted 346 yards and three touchdowns in one of the league’s best Week 1 performances.
If Bradford can’t start, the Vikings will turn to backup Case Keenum.

The Minnesota Vikings believe quarterback Sam Bradford will be a game-time decision for Sunday's game at Pittsburgh due to an injured left knee, a source told ESPN's Adam Schefter.
The team plans to work out the veteran quarterback pregame and make a decision then, the source said

Why would that be?  Why would any viking fan be pleased with this news?
Because Teddy fan boys are fans of Teddy first and the team a distant second with Sam far down the list...
makes me wonder what you are a fan of?  No, this shouldn't make any Viking fan happy, but keep picking at that scab.

You took your shot ( you rarely miss an opportunity)  it just gets old,  as old as their posts were getting.  

If you truly have been a fan for 50 years you should be old enough to move past the petty shit by now.  You know what was said,  those who said it now what they said (even though many will deny the context on which they said it ) but you don't get bonus point or get to be king of the Internet for picking fights with other longtime fans of the team.

Hell, the Vikings have to know by now if he's playing today or not. Bigger question is will this be a lingering issue or something worse? Some thing that would impact an entire season?
