Nothing matters until regular season time so there is NO need to talk about what this guy looks like in practice because we heard the SAME things about T-Jack EVERY single preseason for five stinkin' years!!!

If he pans out and stays healthy he will show everyone he would have been a 1st rounder no matter what if he could have stayed healthy in college. Hopefully Ponder and Harvin are our White and Ryan dual or Rice if he he stays. All though if Rice leaves which I hope he doesnt I hope we draft either Alshon Jeffery who is Andre Johnson 2.0 or Justin Blackmon.

@juliojones18 - wish in one hand spit in the other and see which fills up quicker. Ponder to Harvin will be no better than Favre to Hank Baskett. Hang it up while you are still behind purple dreamer!!!

Does anyone work harder on his game than Jaymar Johnson? No

Jaymar Johnson is still on the team? Wow, I totally forgot about him.

i'd feel good about this if fitzgerald was giving the compliments... not a scrub who is having a hard time making a team thin at WR

purplegod. I believe what juliojones was trying to do was be optimistic and upbeat about his football team. I think you root for the Vikes. Could you please stop urinating all over your fellow homers parades. If Ponder is any good there's no reason why we couldn't have a combo as good as Ryan to White. I'm guessing that that combo was picked because our OC came over from Atlanta.

Can he get up off his back well? Can he tackle?

Even if little else was accomplished yesterday, Ponder getting a lesson on life as a professional athlete from Fitzgerald made the day a success.

@bruisedup I really doubt Purplegod is a Viking fan
