7. Moss is the anti-Raider
When you think of the silver and black, you think of smash-mouth football.

You think of players who played with broken bones.


You don't think of a prima-donna who wouldn't play because of a bruised thigh.

3. No way Norv Turner can handle him...
He's just going to get worse!!!

Vikings should try and pick up Plexico Burris or Laverniuos COles to replace him...

12. I think (I hate to say this) Wahhhndy Moss needs to have a
strong black coach (such as Herm Edwards). Norv had better strap himself in, he is in for a wild ride.

Randy Moss can be brilliant one moment, then absolutely dreadful the next, depending upon his "mood". I am less moody during PMS than Randy Moss is all the time.

4. This is just Randy talking - Nothing official until March 2nd
"Nothing is official until March 2," Moss' agent, Dante DiTrapano, told the Pioneer Press. "But don't be surprised if Randy is wearing the Silver and Black this upcoming season."

"We've had some discussions with them (the Raiders), but there is nothing to announce," Vikings vice president of football operations Rob Brzezinski told the Pioneer Press.

11. It's probably a done deal, but a lot can change in 7 days
Especially when you're dealing with a flake like Moss.

13. I meant that in response to the line:
"It's just Randy talking..." The more things change, the more they stay the same.

:hi:

5. Woo hoo......he's been a pain in the Packers arse forever!!
Glad he's gone, and I'm hoping the new guy they get won't be as good. One of the best receivers in the NFL, if you can handle all his baggage.

6. Good riddance
as a Packers fan living in Minneapolis I love to see this kind of thing.

They got a 3rd year linebacker and 7th pick overall for Randy "take a play or two off" Moss.

Good riddance... I'm sure the traffic cops in Mpls will be happy to see you leave.

8. The team is not confirming it at this time.
The date will be March 2nd. The start of the trading season in the NFL.

9.  say it ain't so joe
that would be great,being from minnesota I never thought anyone would want the spoiled brat, and never thought he was as good as claimed anyway, so if its true, great and good luck Randy you won't find another team willing to put up with your crap, you might actually have to play every down.

16. There are so many players that are worse.
I have no idea why they bitch so about Randy while players who commit murder still play. Terrell Owens does a lot of stupid things but I don't see the Eagles getting rid of him.

15. Idiots
Vikings will never win another playoff game if they keep giving away their best players. Personally I have given up hope onthis team altogether.

18. He fits with the Raiders.
And their "bad boy" image. Plus Al Davis loves the long ball, this is a decent fit provided it goes through.
