Paul Krause for me this round.

Poor Paul Krause, all he did is lead the NFL in INT all times playing mostly 14 game seasons and at a time when they ran 1st, 2nd and 3rd if possible.
Still amazes me that a player from that time period still leads in INTs all time.
Of course, WRs weren't running down the field unmolested. There were reasons teams didn't pass as much. There were 3 things that could happen when you threw it, two of them were bad, and those bad things were MUCH more likely outcomes of a passing play than they are today.

I really don't want to look at AD every time I come to this forum. Don't think he represents the Vikings well.

The voters have spoken. People who don't like it can leave the board in protest or do the duct tape solution.

Actually, I think I will leave Peterson off. I was on the fence to begin with but with people coming forward and specifically asking I think I'll leave him off.

Every other player is just as deserving and nobody has any issues with any of them. I'll start one more poll soon.

That is disappointing since Peterson is the greatest running back in franchise history in my book, oh well

He is. It's a shame it has to be considered at all.

I get it on one hand, but you let the fans vote and he got the votes. It's a lose/lose proposition whatever you decide to do.

Meh, I don't see what anyone is losing. The board will still pick the players, Peterson is just off the table. It's the website banner, not the hall of fame or anything.

When Peterson gets in the Hall of Fame, put him on the banner :thumbsup:

It's lose/lose because putting him on the banner would bother some people and not putting him on the banner would bother others. Either way you are alienating Vikings fans.

I wouldn't have put him on, but that's my opinion. I get the attraction, he was an incredible RB for the Vikings. While I wouldn't have put him on, if he was on and the rest of the members votes him on, this would be the last you'd hear from me about it. I'm sorry I came across as if I'd be mad or upset, or leave if he was on. Just wouldn't be my choice ever. Again, if you want him on Cliff, he was voted on by other members here so don't let my complaints stop you. This thread is the only time you'll hear my opinion on the matter. :thumbsup:

Honestly, I don't want him on either. The board was divided and ultimately shut down for a while over the issue he had. I should have never made him an option in retrospect.

13 votes for yes, 3 complaints, what ever happened to majority rules? If social media was around back in the day 90% of these guys would of ended up offending someone.
