Pretty In Purple? » Brats & Beer

First, a confession: For the past several weeks my mind has been distracted by “real life” away from the Packers and football in general, as you can see by the large time gap between posts here at Brats & Beer. I have taken appropriate steps, though, by admitting I have a problem and seeking professional help. Now I am back, eagerly consuming any all news about the Green & Gold and spewing forth scatter-brained thoughts on the Interweb.

My condition was so sever, in fact, that I completely missed the news that the Vikings have redesigned their uniforms. It looks like Minnesota has finally completed its transformation from the Purple People Eaters of the NFL to the Lavender Lovelies of the Arena League. I hope Ryan Longwell feels good about himself wearing one of these girlie outfits when the Vikes come to Lambeau Field in December. (Brad Johnson, though, looks right at home in his new jersey.) Way to make you mark on the franchise, Ziggy: Bring in one of Andy Reid’s clipboard holders as coach, chase off your franchise quarterback, and then dress the whole thing up in pretty, new unis.
