Randy Moss comes back to play for the Minnesota Vikings!


If you're like me, you've missed Randy Moss playing for the Vikings the past six years and must be STOKED that the New England Patriots traded Randy Moss to the Minnesota Vikings! I'm sure there are lots of you out there that didn't miss him either....

But I'm speaking to the ones that have MISSED Randy Moss! The guy that made Culpepper look good! The guy that can stick an impossible catch. I have always thought that the Vikings made a huge mistake in trading Moss after the 2004 season.

I am a huge Minnesota Vikings fan, and I love Randy Moss. I still sport my Randy Moss number 84 jersey, although I had hung my jersey up for this season, since I am 6.5 months pregnant. However, this morning, I took my Randy Moss Vikings Jersey out of the pregnancy retirement, and fit it over my growing belly! It still fits! Barely, but it fits! (and with the Twins playoff game today against the Yankees, I have my Minnesota Twins shirt on underneath! Vikings come first, but I still love my Minnesota Twins!)

My husband woke me up at 6:45 am this morning to let me know that Randy Moss was coming back to my beloved Minnesota Vikings. He had to assure me a few times that he was not joking, and I was not dreaming. Now, since you probably don't know me, you don' t know that I could sleep through a tornado, or maybe hear it, but then fall right back asleep without a problem. I love to sleep and can always fall back asleep...after he told me this news, I was UP FOR THE DAY! I hopped onto the internet to read it for myself and to update my Facebook status that it was Christmas in October, or even better, since my birthday is in October, that it was the best birthday gift EVER! This is gift enough, I don't need birthday gift this year, unless, possibly, it was a new Randy Moss jersey! :-)

With all that said, I won't pretend to know a ton about sports. Especially when it comes to non-Minnesota teams, I know very little about other teams, but I do know that Randy Moss is an awesome player, and I think the media makes him look worse than he is. Yes, he might cop an attitude sometimes, but when you're constantly scrutinized for things that don't matter, I'm willing to bet it would piss you off too.

I'm still bitter about Moss getting so much negativity from the FAKE MOONING! Look people, it's not like he actually took his pants down and mooned for real. He FAKE MOONED! I would let my son watch that any day of the week! Moss was CELEBRATING! *I don't have a son yet, but I will in January, and I will be proud to let him be a Randy Moss fan!*

Look, I hold a grudge, and I still have not forgotten how bitter I was about this dumb press making that fake mooning into such a big deal. I'm glad that Randy is willing to forget how Minnesota treated him and is willing to come back to us. Not that he had a final say in the outcome, per say, but I believe he has always wanted to play with Brett Favre, and that is probably the main or maybe the only reason he would want to play for Minnesota again. Hopefully it will end up being a joyous reunion!

I wonder what those people are thinking that had changed their Randy Moss jersey into a "Favre" jersey by crossing off the "8" in the 84....I bet they are kicking themselves now! Any guesses as to what jersey number Moss will have? Will he keep the 81 he's had for a few years now, or will Vikings number 84 let Moss have his Vikings number back!? A new number altogether?

I am SO excited to see what Randy Moss and Brett Favre, along with the rest of the amazing 2010 Minnesota Vikings offense and defense, can accomplish together! Let's get Rice healthy and really get this team going!

I'll be tuned in for Monday Night Football to watch the return of Randy Moss to the Minnesota Vikings, wearing purple and gold, will you? (If you need Minnesota Vikings tickets for the Monday Night Football game against the New York Jets, or any Minnesota Vikings tickets for any game, contact Ticket King today at 612-341-4131!)

I hope the state of Minnesota, and Vikings fans all across the board, will welcome Randy Moss back!

Let's look forward to what is hopefully a Super Bowl season for the Minnesota Vikings!

Skol Vikings!!

  2. I'm glad I have a fellow companion that enjoyed the fake mooning! :-)

    Also, I am so happy that Randy got his Vikings number 84 jersey back! Woo hoo! (I kind of feel bad for the former 84, who I heard isn't even on the team anymore, but I don't feel too bad, I hope he felt privileged to even wear it in the first place!)

    The Vikings had a rocky game last night, to be sure, but I'm still looking forward to the rest of the season! Heal that elbow, Favre! You guys have more milestones to make!
