Vikings Message Board.Com

Just a little different subject thread here.
I am a pretty avid reader. I know a few other members here have posted in the past about enjoying reading also. Kapp , you and had talked by PM when Joe Kapps memoir was published and we both bought it and read it.
I am just about 3/4 of the way through the Scott Studwell "Viking for Life" memoir book right now. It's pretty good so far. Really cool as an old long time fan to read his thoughts about his relationships with Bud and the old time players that I loved as a youngster. Blair, Siemon, Hilgenberg, Browner, Tinglelhoff, the Purple People Eaters, etc etc.
And now I'm into then scouting years of just career. It's funny to read his thought on JJ , how he sees him as a potential superstar... lol... he got that right!!
Anyhow I was wondering about other books that maybe others have read that are good about Vikings players , coaches or anything pertaining to Vikes.
Like I said I have Joe Kapps nook and kow Studwell's. I've seen things about a Bud Grant book but have never been able to find it.
I am old school and not into the Kindles or on line reading. I still like to have a good old fashioned hold it in my hands book.
So if anyone has any suggestions please share them.

Did you read Denny Green's book, "No room for Crybabies"? I can barely remember most of it since it's been 25 years, but it wasn't bad

Bud Grant does have a book. It’s entitled “I Did it My Way.” Unfortunately it’s no longer in print, so if you’re going to read it, you’ll either have to find it used or do the electronic reader thing (it is available for Nook, Kindle, etc.).

Another one that interests me is “ The Good, the Bad, & the Ugly: Minnesota Vikings: Heart-Pounding, Jaw-Dropping, and Gut-Wrenching Moments from Minnesota Vikings History.”

Here are a few more …

Guess I’ve got my reading list for awhile!

Glad this thread was posted. I'm not much of a reader unless it's something that really interests me and clearly the Vikings do so I will 100% look into reading some of these.

I would also recommend this book. My mother bought it for me for Christmas. It's like 10+ chapters of multiple choice Vikings trivia. Will definitely put you to the test. I'm onto chapter 3 now.
