Good listen and conversation by Judd and Chip (25:45) on the Wilfs, the "Competitive Rebuild," Ryan Poles, and what will and will not win you playoff games. It's what I've been echoing on here for years about the Wilfs and their failed philosophy of thinking we are a playoff team every year.

If you’re consistently on the same page as Judd, you may have Viking Derangement Syndrone… :P

Lol no, we just both have "Tired of the Vikings Going Nowhere" Sydrome while others teams collect second, third and fourth Super Bowl titles. Tired of the dysfunction of ownership and the nonsensical decisions made by Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dumb. Judd just sees through the BS and I'm glad he calls it as it is

I don't know why Judd gets so much hate? Is he a bit negative some times? Yeah, but that dude has been around the game for a long time. As well as worked with some of the Minnesota greats. Call me biased, but I really enjoy Purple Daily with him, Mackey and Declin. Throw Thor in there and you got a pretty entertaining hour.

Anyways, I think Judd has been spot on especially with some of the predictions on KOC and Kwesi. I mean they are a bit of a homer group, but aren't we all?

I literally can't listen to them without feeling like their whole existence is just to agitate people.

Obviously, different things work for different people

They are decidedly on the "clicks>truth" side of the aisle. There is some good, smart, insightful Viking commentary out there on social media (Dustin Baker, Luke Braun, Arif Hasan, Siefert, Forness)...Judd is not among them.

I've always liked Judd but I know lots of people don't.  Usually journalists get hate because they don't cheer for the team but he's no longer strictly a journalist, and Purple Daily whatever you may think of it is still very much a site that roots for the team, something which is really verboten in the world of big J reporting.

As for the thread title, the Competitive Rebuild never ends.  You can check out any time you like, but you can never leave.  ;)
