- Interview with Alan Roach PA Announcer of the Minnesota VikingsAlan Roach, the thunderous Public Address Announcer of the Minnesota Vikings, joined us to talk about his new gig, growing up as a Minnesota Vikings fan, and what it's like having the pipes of Zeus. We also dove into how he got his start in radio and eventually becoming the voice of the Denver Broncos for almost two decades, what US Bank Stadium was like for opening night versus Green Bay>, what all goes into the production of an NFL stadium experience (a lot), if he every got nervous announcing a Super Bowl, and how he thinks a Super Bowl between the 1998 Vikings and Broncos would have shook out.I also make him relive Tebow Time and get a "Bradford to Pruitt for 27" call out of him. Because that's how I roll.All that and other "Nasal Drip?" chatter on this edition of the Purple FTW! Podcast!An Andy Carlson Joint0 min
- Play It Again, Sam: Vikings-Packers RecapThe Minnesota Fightin' Vikings opened the gates to historic US Bank Stadium Sunday night in rousing fashion defeating the Green Bay Packers 17-14. The Purple were led by a strong effort by the Zimmer Hellfire Defense, an other-worldly performance by Stefon Diggs, and a completely surprising/electric outing from newly acquired quarterback Sam Bradford. We recap the game that was and even do it without "sampling" other teams' & sports' traditions.Today's Border Battle Talkers Include:? Sam Bradford Played Better Than Anyone Could Have Expected? The Defense Owned Aaron Rodgers? Stefon Diggs is Already Antonio Brown? Why Adrian Peterson's Injury Could Be a Positive? The Ballad of Trae Waynes? The Good and Bad Coaching Calls?

- Brand New House: Vikings-Packers Preview with Alex GelharSo are you gonna Love US Bank Stadium or you gonna List It?The Minnesota Fightin' Vikings kick the tires and lights the fires to our new home for the first time (that counts) Sunday night against arch-nemesis Green Bay. The Packers are 1-0 after coming in and stealing the show at Jacksonville last Sunday, and the winner of this Sunday Night Football match will have a leg up in the NFC North race as the 2016 campaign chugs along.Alex Gelhar (NFL.com, NFL Fantasy Live Podcast, Packers Apologist) rejoins the show to give us some insight about that team from the wrong side of the Mississippi, how the Purple matches up against #TeamAlJazeera, and a little fantasy talk at the end (pick up Kyle Rudolph off the free agent scrap heap).All that and other "Build a wall for THIS border, imo" chatter on this edition of the Purple FTW! Podcast!An Andy Carlson Joint0 min
- The Vikings Scoop with Darren Wolfson aka DOOOOOOOOGIEDarren Wolfson (KSTP/1500 ESPN) joined the show at Blue Door Pub Como to talk some Minnesota Fightin' Vikings and life as an insider breaking stories and developing sources. We touched on the news surrounding the Teddy Bridgewater injury, what he heard prior to the Sam Bradford blockbuster trade, how long Xavier Rhodes could be out, and when/if certain players will be moved on from this season. *Cough Jarius Wright, Blair Walsh, Jeff Locke*And oh yeah the Green Bay Packers are coming in for Sunday Night Football and the regular season opening of US Bank Stadium. Lil chatter about that minor thing too.Get the lowdown from Doogie on The Scoop available on iTunes and PodcastOne.All that and other "Andy is Deep Throat" chatter on this edition of the Purple FTW!

- D's Get Degrees: Vikings-Titans RecapThe Minnesota Fightin' Vikings recovered from a slow start (too much BBQ?) to dismantle the Tennessee Titans 25-16 Sunday in Nashville. The Zimmer Hellfire Defense lead the way generating two defensive touchdowns and three takeaways (really four, but whatevs.) The defensive scoring was key as the Purple generated zero touchdowns on offense, despite a better-than-expected(?) outing from elder statesman Shaun Hill. We recap the game that was and also try to not freak out about Blair Walsh.Today's Hot Chicken Talking Points? The Zimmer Hellfire Defense Leads the Way? Eric Kendricks Has a Chance to be Special? Everson Griffen Already is Special? Harrison Smith is Earning Every Penny? Mike Zimmer's Halftime Adjustments? We Need to Talk About Blair Walsh? Shaun Hill Was Good Shaun Hill?

- The Week Of: Vikings-Titans PreviewActual football football starts this Sunday for the Minnesota Fightin' Vikings as they head down to the Country Music and BBQ Capital o' the World to take on the Tennessee Titans. To help us preview the opposition, Sharona (Inside the Pylon, NFL Female) joins us for a segment to talk about her Titans and how they look to matchup against the Zimmer Hellfire Defense and the two-headed monster of Sam Bradford and Shaun Hill.Even though who's actually going to play quarterback is still a question mark, later on in the show I look at the laundry list of strengths the Vikings bring to the table (defense, running game) that could carry the day on Sunday. ...And also a few weaknesses that could start the season off with an L for the Skoldiers of Fortune (SOMEONE PLEASE COVER DELANIE WALKER.)All that and other "Exotic Smash Mouth is soooooo 2003" chatter on this edition of the Purple FTW! Podcast!An Andy Carlson Joint0 min
- Carlson and Coller Talk Vikings and Stuff (Episode 302)I sat down with Matthew Coller, the new Minnesota Fightin' Vikings analyst here at 1500 ESPN, at the Blue Door Pub Como to talk about his new gig and how he sees the always dramatic Purple playing out in 2016. We talked about how the Teddy Bridgewater injury and Sam Bradford trade changes the outlook (and the offense?) for the Vikings, and a look forward to Week 1's tougher-than-people-think matchup vs the Tennessee Titans.Matthew and I also hit on his previous gig at WGR 550 in Buffalo, why he's so hardcore into analytics (he's got a new podcast on 1500 and first guest was fellow nerd Arif Hasan), why Percy Harvin was way more delightful in Buffalo than here, and I christen Matthew with a nickname.All that and other "Minnesota Winters >>> Buffalo Winters" chatter on this edition of the Purple FTW! Podcast!An Andy Carlson Joint0 min
- Plan B: Sam Bradford Plus 53 Man Roster & Practice Squad Tidbits (Episode 301)Rick Spielman and the Minnesota Fightin' Vikings pulled the equivalent of Robert California closing down the Binghampton branch as the general manager traded a 2017 1st round pick and a 2018 conditional 4th rounder to Philadelphia for Matt Flynn-like financial magician Sam Bradford. Was it desperate? Yes. Was it a smart move? We've got 16 games to find out. We talk about the Bradford heist trade, what it means for Teddy Bridgewater's 2017, and take a look at the final 53-man roster and practice squad.SWAG! Order up your own Purple FTW!

- Vikings-Rams Recap: The Toby Johnson Show Starring Toby Johnson (Episode 300)The Minnesota Fightin' Vikings mercifully put an end to the preseason Thursday night against the St. Louis Los Angeles Rams of Anaheim. A few story lines emerged as many 4th preseason game participants did their best to scrape together a roster spot (OMG TOBY JOHNSON!), but the main story still hovering over the Purple is the quarterback void left by Teddy Bridgewater and his freak practice injury.SWAG!

- Teddy Bridgewater Injury Instant Reaction
It's a dark day for Minnesota Vikings fans as Teddy Bridgewater suffered what appeared to be a serious non-contact knee injury Tuesday at practice. Serious enough that an ambulance was called in and practice was cancelled after only 25 minutes. Sam Ekstrom (@SamEkstrom) phoned in from Winter Park to give us the details on the the ground and I examine what the Vikings quarterback position (Shaun Hill, Taylor Heinicke, Free Agent TBD), the offense, and overall season outlook shifts with Teddy out. All that and other "Dammit" chatter on this edition of the Purple FTW! Podcast!
