as you guys get truly older, you'll find it amazing when 28 and 30 year old players are considered "old."

I'd be considered slightly on the young side. It's funny though that in football 30 is considered old, but then hockey players play well into they are almost 40 in some cases. Same with baseball. Sometimes I don't think it's the bodies that necessarily fail for football players, but that once they get in their 30's they get families and don't dedicate as much time to working out like they did in their 20's, despite still being fully capable of doing so. _________________

Looks like a pretty bright future with that many contributors being under 25 years old. Spielman has done an outstanding job in the last couple of drafts |

Old? VD? .. nahhhh. Some of us could be on the roster ... as coaches ... lol.
For perspective, I watched the second Viking Superbowl on a 13" black and white TV.
Makes one appreciate big flat screen HDTVs today. |
