I still can't believe it. I have read the article several times and still am speechless. His maternal grandmother who helped raise him dies. He helps plan the funeral and travel arrangements. As a result he misses a game and then gets docked one game check. Yes the NFL is a business. Still it is a cheap, gutless move on the Vikings part. Minnesota is 4 games out of first with a 3-5 record. It is not like his missing one game would really matter. What kind of organization are they? This is the message they want to send to their players and fans? I hope they NEVER win another game. I only wish they were my home team so I could protest in person...
Post script...
It looks like my scathing commentary had an effect! So maybe others had something to do with it. Either way the Vikings have had a change in mind and decided to pay him after all. Justice is served...
