Harvin or Allen, no less!

I hate the way athletes leave Boston. This has shades of Manny Ramirez to it.

I prefer Allen out of the 2 of them.

The Patriots better get more than a 3rd rounder if they are to deal Moss. You are right though...it feels like Manny all over again, only I'm not expecting us to get the football equilavent of Jason Bay in a deal.

No lie, I can't think of a team I've ever seen in my lifetime that had that many white guys playing on offense at once. Between the lineman, Brady, Welker, Edleman, and Woodhead it's got to be a first in the modern era NFL. That'll be the next Patriots scandal. They collect small white guys.

Well it's definitely working...maybe more teams should try it then?

I don't see how Pat's fans could be pleased with this move. Seems quite dumb to me.

It's all but official and i couldn't be happier. Time to break out the ol' 84 jersey. Man the Vikes need this. 3rd round pick, i wouldn't be too happy if i was a Pats fan.

Randy Moss' improbable return to Minnesota is about to become reality.
The Vikings and the Patriots are planning to complete the blockbuster trade that will send the Pro Bowl wide receiver back to Minnesota on Wednesday, multiple league sources told ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter.
The Vikings will send the Patriots their third-round pick in the 2011 draft in return for Moss, a league source told Schefter.

How do you read that as official? If it was official shouldn't it say completed?

Nevermind, I'm leaving my stupid post up. Just read the all but part.

If it does happen, vikes will be stacked when Rice gets back.

Moss, Rice, Harvin, Berrian, Shiancoe.


(Berrian Blah, but like Rice, Moss will make him better)

Too bad #4 will throw the ball to the other team all the time.

LOL! This is true. That's what happens when you consider yourself above everyone else and don't go to training camp.

No thats what happens the when the back of jersey says "Farve" (well expect last year, no one can explain that one)

Really. Then the underneath wouldn't be nearly as open for Welker ... and the other white guys

[mfoga]

Well its a done deal.

 

[OSCORP]

I never thought i'd wear my old 84 jersey again!

Unreal!

 

[NASEDO]

For a 3rd Round Pick... thats crazy....Pats are dumb. Welkers numbers should drop.

 

[Natrix]

Actually the back of the jersey says "Favre"

No wonder why that other guy is throwing all the interceptions..

 

[Darth Cruel]

LOL...this actually takes a little away from my excitement ove rthe Pats/Steelers game.

 

[karamazov80]

In the past, Belichick et al. were pretty good at finding the right time to get rid of players that, based on gameplay, outside observers probably wouldn't cut/trade. But I'm not sure if this is still the case. Surely, the Patriots don't seem like a team where troublemakers and whiners are allowed. Maybe Moss's wacky rant a few weeks ago was enough for the Pats to decide to get rid of him.

No, it's shades of Patriot football. They always do this with their veterans in a contract year.

 

[Natrix]

Rumor is that the Vikings will also get a 7th round pick from the Patriots according to the play by play radio announcer Paul Allen who got confirmation from a team source.

 

[Darth Cruel]

News says it is a don e deal now. And it appears that it is just for the third round pick.

Bargain basement price for a great receiver.
