Taco Tuesday Open Thread
Good Morning!
OTA’s are completed, mandatory minicamp will go on today through Thursday, hopefully we’ll be able to get insight and news of our favorite team during this time. After that, it becomes the desert of Vikings news until training camp. Events that are probably important only to me, the USWNT kickoff their World Cup play today against Thailand at 11am Central; yes I’ll be watching and posting throughout the match, yes you can complain about it, gif form is preferred. Meanwhile we’ll carry on with our news and links open thread full of beer recommendations, nap strategies, crock pot and smoker recipes. Drop by for some fan wisdom, snark and go ahead and have a second coffee, it’s Tuesday.

Again, we all know the rules, but in case someone is new:
-No discussion of politics or religion
-No feeding of the trolls
-This isn’t a male version of The View, so leave the gender hatred at the door
-Keep the bad language to a minimum (using the spoiler tags, if you must)
-Speaking of which, if discussing a newer show or movie, please use spoiler tags
-No pictures that could get someone fired or in serious trouble with their employer
-If you can’t disagree in a civil manner, feel free to go away
-While navigating the open thread, just assume it’s sarcasm.
With that, the beer light is on and the bar is open. Belly up & tie one on. Don’t forget to tip your waiter, try the tap water and Welcome Aboard!
