and Oh, Hey everybody welcome to another episode of Purple Insider a couple of

years ago I got together with Brian Murphy and talked about the Vikings Hall of Very Good. Who would we nominate

players that will not make the Hall of Fame or are not currently in the Hall of

Fame but are very much deserving of all-time recognition within Viking Land and so we each made

teams and nominations of Hall of very good teams and I wanted to bring you that

conversation again because it's really fun, you know, off season discussion,

but also I wanted to wait a couple of days if you heard the podcast from the last few days.

I wanted to wait a little bit before we got right back into the hardcore training camp previews. I felt that it just it wasn't there for this week considering

Kyrie Jackson and the tragedy that happened to the

Minnesota Vikings. So I want to bring you some from the archives discussions. I

know a lot of you

something to work and things like that so I still wanted to bring you something for this week but later in the week we'll start to get into those discussions and

how the Vikings organization is impacted and so forth by what's happened and

what's going to come in training camp but wanted to give that a few days just felt

it was appropriate before we dive into all that. So thanks everybody for listening as always and we'll talk to you soon.

For Purple Insider, the website version, I created a Vikings Hall of Very Good because I was having a

conversation with another journalist about just how many Vikings players are

borderline Hall of Famer or actually belong in the Hall of Fame and have not gotten in.

Jim Marshall is the best example and of course he is on our Hall of very good team,

but at almost every position there's somebody who either has a case or whose career was cut a little bit short and they never got to really make that case

So I showed you the list if you want to see the entire hall of very good it is on Purple Insider.com, but Brian, I gave you the homework assignment

to pick out a couple of players that stuck out to you on the Hall of Very Good for the Vikings
