5 Free Agents I Want the Vikings to Sign Feb 11, 2016

Show notes

Winning free agency is NOT the key to success (i.e. Washington in the 2000s, Tampa Bay two years ago), but it's still a lot of fun to see your favorite team pick up pieces that could help them next season. I take a dip into the free agent pool and come up with 5 names Vikings fans should keep and eye on as March 9th approaches. All of the guys I picked are for positions of need and will not necessarily break the bank or be household names, but will help this team (ala Linval Joseph and Captain Munnerlyn two season ago). Also I run through the current list of Vikings free agents and definitively say if they'll be back or yee gon.All that and other "BYE, ROBERT BLANTON" nonsense on this edition of the Purple FTW!

Vikings Non-Sense with New Producer Daniel Paluch Feb 04, 2016

Show notes

As listeners of Purple FTW! know, Andy is pretty lazy. Therefore I've passed the buck along and we have a new producer in the fold by the name of Daniel Paluch (@DanielPaluch). During the show we talk about what the hell a podcast producer does (I still have no idea), suss out how he did prepping for his first show, fill you guys in about the first time I met Daniel in Mankato (#BackSweat) and even talk a little Minnesota Fightin' Vikings.

All that and other "Get My Coffee" nonsense on this edition of the Purple FTW! Podcast.

Vikings Season Recap with Di Murphy Jan 13, 2016

Show notes

The season ended abruptly for the Minnesota Fightin' Vikings in (sadly) typical Minnesota Fightin' Viking fashion as Blair Walsh shanked the game-winning field goal out of bounds on the 18th tee. However, a few days removed we can appreciate the 2015 season for what it was: a solid step forward for a young and hungry team under a coach we completely trust. That's a lot more than most fanbases have to hang their hats on as our offseason begins. Di Murphy (@DiMurphyMN) of The Daily Norseman joins the show to put a bow on the Purple's 2015 campaign.We talk about why it wasn't ALL on Blair Walsh, Adrian Peterson's fumbling history rears its ugly head once again, what Teddy Bridgewater needs to do to become a bigger redzone threat, how the Vikings beat Seattle in every aspect of the game Sunday, and what our priorities are in free agency and the draft.All that and other "Bye, Jeff Davidson" nonsense on this edition of the Purple FTW!
