On Tuesday night in NYC, Purple Daily was awarded a national Marconi for podcast of the year! Eight years ago, @SKORNorth was an idea on a whiteboard. How could we build a series of shows for Minnesota sports fans that would be sustainable in a digital world? Pretty cool to see how much you all, the fiercely passionate audience and fans, have supported this. Thanks to everyone who is part of our Purple Daily and SKOR North communities. We appreciate you to no end. Shout out to our incredible and relentless SKOR North & Hubbard team. Innovators and great humans. To @jzulgad and @DexsTweets specifically, I love being in the trenches with you both every day on Purple Daily. Now — or someday, before we die — it’s the Vikings’ turn… 👀

Imagine tweeting about a show you’ve apparently never watched or listened to before? 😂😵‍💫

LaMelo!

The team that has allowed 74 total points on the season headed into November?

The 2000 Ravens allowed 10.3 PPG

The Vikings defense is allowing 10.3 points per game over this 11-game win streak dating back to last season 10.3! (I stripped out opposing team defensive TDs)

There are two categories of people in the JJ McCarthy discourse: 1 - The almighty ball-knowers who ALREADY drew a conclusion about JJ McCarthy’s career before his 24th birthday. Many of these people clowned and dunked on anyone who remained curious. 2 - REASONABLE people who saw some major flashes in Minnesota and just wanted to see more games before rushing to judgment. The amount of people -- AND MEDIA! -- who fell into Category 1 above is pretty astonishing.

Harrison Smith calls game.

Vikings Vent Line on the Purple Daily YouTube channel right after this one goes final...

This is actually exactly how McCarthy was playing over his final four games of last season. And in the 2nd half against Chicago + Detroit last year. The gap between how people view McCarthy -- and his actual talent level on the football field = a hilariously wide gap.

We keep hearing, "The Vikings offense is close!" Is it?

Or even a 14-6 lead... 😈

Imagine if Brian Flores' defense could ever play with a 17-0 lead...

Jauan Jennings is alive!

Absolute waste of another long Myles Price kick return
