Going Going, Back Back, To Minne-sota??

Back To 'Sota?
One inadvertent tweet by Sports Guy Bill Simmons and the football portion of the sports world was set on fire with the possibility of Randy Moss being trade back to the team that drafted him in 1998, the Minnesota Vikings. As Kanye West would say, "No one man should have all that power!"

In case you missed it earlier, the would-be direct message simply read "Moss Vikings." Now "sources" are coming out of the woodwork confirming that the Pats and Vikes are indeed talking about a possible trade involving Moss. And really, why wouldn't they be after that offensive onslaught they put on Monday night?? Who needs a #1 receiver when Tom Brady utilized all his other weapons to the tune of 153 yards and 1 touchdown??

In all seriousness though, if this trade really hinges on Randy signing a new deal with Minnesota, he might as well stay his ass in New England. I mean, would 13 games with Brett Favre be worth spending the following 2 or 3 years with Travaris Jackson at QB??

Now, if the Vikes are trying to re-acquire the services of Randy without a new deal, then I say go for it. I'd hope the Vikings would be that dumb though, because he'd definitely bolt as soon as the last second ticked off the clock January 2nd in Detroit.

Welp, Adam Schefter and Jay Glazer are reporting that if a deal does get done, it will happen Wednesday, so obviously more on this later.
