Links of the Week
May 13th, 2010 Adam Warwas Posted in Features, Injuries, Main, News, NFL Draft, Offseason, Opinions, Roster Moves, Rumors, Stadium Well, I am not going to lie… this is a sllllllllow week.

Introducing Laylah Figuera – Our Official Gab Sportscaster

Is Ray Edwards Worth It?
Much attention has been given to the reports that Vikings starting left end Ray Edwards will not be signing his RFA tender until the last second, and thus will be skipping a number of offseason activities including the mandatory minicamp. It is fully his right to skip these events hardly anybody blames him. As everybody [...]
