And the Hello, welcome to another episode of Purple Insider Matthew Collar here and joining me from the

Athletic is Alec Lewis who has just put out his off-season blueprint of all the things that he desperately wants the Vikings to do.

That's kind of sarcasm because that's not really the article.

But it is called a 10-step plan to set up the franchise for the present and future and people in the comments

they don't love it Alec I got to say they don't love it it's the first article written on the internet where people in the comments are not totally happy

Yeah, you know I I I really was hopeful that it was going to be my stepping stone to general manager position. I mean I was going to send out my resume to as many people as possible and ultimately I think just reading through the feedback it just might not be that time yet. I might need a little more schooling in this thing we call the NFL so it's

okay you you got to learn in this business and so I'm I'm I'm willing and

able and ready.

Actually the best part of football and the reason why it's so popular aside from many factors,

like gambling and stuff, is that everyone can play along at home.

Like I think that that's why the off season is what it is and why there's always so much

excitement over the next coming weeks that I know that you know us going to the

combine there's going to be so much to try to gather and glean and speculate

about there and to learn more about these prospects and see where they kind of fall after and listen to Daniel

Jeremiah and everything else to just try to get that whole landscape.

But that's why it's so exciting is because every one of us can imagine what we would do if we were in

Quaysee Adafel mens's shoes. So what you've done here is kind of laid out. I

think a plan that is most

unhappy about in the comments.

Yeah, I think first you're exactly right with football

and its interest.

I think fantasy football seems to have caught on a little bit.
