It was great to read about B-Rob being back with the team, even just as a visitor.  I hope that he is able to become a permanent part of the team, just like Studwell did.

We always have known his name. 

But I did notice that while noting that  BRob chatted with Speilman, the article fails to mention Pops was trying to maneuver behind him for the old kneel down behind Spielman so Brian could push him over and run away laughing.

As hard as that probably was, I figured that you would. As parents, we want to fight battles for our kids even when they are grown. But you raised him right so I knew that you knew he could handle it. He handled himself with class. It's damn hard to watch it happen though. I am super happy for his newest chapter.

Yeah, but that was fun to envision, at least for me.

and to echo Vikergirl, we are very happy he is continuing to stay involved with the Vikings.  Rarely do you find such a great player that is equally as great a person and as engaging off the field as intense he was on the field.

I didn't say it didn't cross my mind! However, what I was thinking was a little bit different than what I was saying. VG, I had promised I would keep my mouth shut. Brian wants to stay welcomed there and I'm glad to see that is the case. He and, hopefully myself, plan on coming back to Minnesota as often as we can.
It was good to see the guys and even good to see some of them still asking for his coaching......and him happy to give the instruction.
