Sad day none the less.

Was hoping we could win a Super Bowl with him. Actually, I've been hoping we would win a Super Bowl period.

Damn, one of my favorite players of all time.  Hard worker, real productive and most importantly a great guy.  Best of luck BRob.

Sad day for Pops and Brian too. Sigh. Wasn't completely unexpected, too much young D-line talent to not protect with a roster spot.

A sad day ... One of my son's childhood favorites.  Probably tied more to his father interacting with us throughout the ride.

A great Viking.

I guess this is goodbye everyone. Thank you all for the way we were treated here. Thanks for all your support. I'll be in and out on here still keeping up with you all. You took us in as a member of the family. For 11 years it's been a helluva ride. I can't tell you if he's done and will retire or go somewhere else. But, Minnesota has been good to him and us. Thank you all.

Wow.  Ugh.  Brian is better than some of the guys we are keeping.  But the team is obviously thinking long-term.  We'll miss you Pops... almost as much as we'll miss Brian.  You're both fine men and it was honor to have you on our "team".  God bless.

Short of retiring after a SB victory, there really is no good way for players' careers to end. Whether BRob gives it a go with another team or hangs up the cleats now, he will always be a Viking. I hope he comes back to the team in some capacity.
He was the Last of the Mohicans - the last remaining player from the 2009 NFC Championship game.  He will be missed on the field and in the locker room.  But he will always be a Viking.

Hey Pops,
You might want to check purple thoughts.  Quite a few well wishes over there too.

I hope the Vikings can fill the leadership void with Brian no longer part of the team.

Pops, thank you for joining our family. I am glad to have met you and spoken with you several times. I hope we get to share a couple more Crown & Cokes together some day.

I am Bummed.  

BRob is a class act and an outstanding football player that did everything... EVERYTHING for this org.  

Thank you BRob for your play on(and off) the field.  Pops, you done did good raising the boy into a man.  His leadship will be missed and your family and friends will be missed at the tailgates and your posts will be missed as well.

Thanks for everything the Robison family has done for the Purple and Gold family.  

You guys Rock!
