Vikings waive Randy Moss
Fox Sports ^ | 11-1-10 | Ale Marvez

Randy Moss sounded Sunday night like he would much rather still be a New England Patriot than Minnesota Viking.

Should the Vikings have waived Randy Moss? Yes, he disrespected the team No, Belichick strikes again! He may now actually get his wish.

The Vikings shockingly waived Moss on Monday, less than one month after acquiring him in a trade with New England. Coach Brad Childress informed the team early Monday afternoon.

Moss’ release comes less than 24 hours after a controversial news conference following a 28-18 road loss to New England. Moss praised the Patriots repeatedly while taking a swipe at Vikings coaches and players for allegedly not heeding his pregame advice on how to best his former team.

Moss also specifically knocked head coach Brad Childress for unsuccessfully attempting to score a fourth-down touchdown from the Patriots 1-yard line rather than kicking a field goal at the end of the first half.

“No disrespect to the Minnesota Vikings and their organization ... but I miss (the Patriots),” said Moss, who refused to answer questions from the media during his five-minute speech.

They probably did it because he wouldn’t use the search function.

Did you search on Keyword or Titles? I just did it on Titles and got 13 Moss hits 5 of which are about the VikingKitties cutting him.

I hear that there may be an opening with Washington. On Pennsylvania Avenue, not on ‘Skins.

Quarterback??? You mean Tony Romo isn’t getting the job done? But I thought it was Jessica Simpson’s fault. Now that Romo dumped her, he should be leading America’s Team (caugh caugh) to the Super Bowl.

Maybe, just maybe, she was not the problem.

A team needing a deep threat will grab him.

You shouldn’t search by full title. You should pick a word in the title that is likely to NOT be misspelled, and is likely to be used if someone shortens the title, and that is somewhat unique. Like “Moss” in this case.

Using the search function is only helpful if you use it wisely.

Look out Cinci! Here he comes. T.O., Ocho Stinko, and Randy the Dandy. They would still have a crappy team, but the T.O.cho Show would be better.

When is Plaxico getting out?

Moss and Kraft looked like all was forgiven at the end of the Pat’s win.

Well, since the Vikings season is down the crapper anyway, why not? Favre must be cursing the day he decided to come back for one more season.

The Pats are too smart to take him back AND they get last shot.

Bet my wife would like to have him on her team. She tells her friends I’m no deep threat. Can’t handle the long ball. Straight from the warmups to the 2 minute warning. :-))
