Madieu Williams doubtful for Sunday
November 14th, 2008 – 2:02 PM by Chip ScogginsVikings coach Brad Childress said he is listing safety Madieu Williams as doubtful for Sunday’s game because of a left shoulder injury.
Williams said he injured his shoulder when he fell down during the special-teams portion of practice on Wednesday. He called it a “freak” injury.
“I was just kind of going for the ball and took a nasty fall,” Williams said. “It’s kind of unfortunate but there are worse things that could happen. I just have to bounce back.”
Williams has played in two games after missing the first seven games because of a neck injury. He said he is not frustrated by this latest injury.
“You know what, there is a lot of things that have happened in my life where this is nothing to me,” he said. “I’m very resilient. I’m going to just keep fighting. Whatever happens I’m just going to take it as it comes.”
Rookie Tyrell Johnson would start in Williams’ place if he can’t play. Johnson filled in for him the first seven games.
– Childress said the team still has not made a roster move to fill Charles Gordon’s spot. Childress said he was planning to meet with vice president of player personnel Rick Spielman later this afternoon about it. Childress said the team has until Saturday afternoon to make a move, but he said it’s not unusual for teams to carry less than 53 on the active roster because only 45 players can be up on game day.
Update: Tampa Bay’s injury report for Friday: Safety Jermaine Phillips (forearm), out; right end Alex Smith (ankle), doubtful; linebacker Derrick Brooks (knee), probable; running back Earnest Graham (knee), questionable; quarterback Brian Griese (right elbow), doubtful; defensive lineman Jimmy Wilkerson (illness), practiced today and should play; fullback B.J. Askew (hamstring), questionable; running back Warrick Dunn (back), questionable; wide receiver Ike Hilliard (shoulder), questionable; and defensive tackle Jovan Haye (foot), probable.

Look at any clock or watch with Roman numerals.
Why do they display the 4 as IIII, instead of IV?
I’ve always wanted to know this.

That tells us absolutely nothing about Mad’s status, Chili always things he can be sly about injuries.
PFT also lists the Vikes as one of the possible suitors for Matt Cassell when he becomes a FA at the end of the season. They’re guessing he gets $60 million over 6 years though.
Mad says he’s “very resilient”. Wow.
sign someone who doesn’t fall down during practice
He should have come stamped “Breakable, handle with care.”
Careful Mad, next time you sneeze, you may break a rib…
ugh.
Players hate to admit they’re injury prone.
Does anyone think if the Vikes finish 9-7 Zygi will have the balls to fire Chili?
Vikes 20
Buc - 14
This is gamesmanship. Allen was doubtful and had a beast of a game with the Packers. Williams will do the same.
jay, firing a coach is like trying to find a girlfriend you want to make a wife…in a forest with trees falling…naked trees, crowned but they have no clothes…y’know?
Because I don’t. That’s what sukz about this season, I can’t not hope for the Vikes to win but the idea of another year with Chili makes me nauseous.
Yeah Tomb and something about finding treasure in your house too.
I don’t think I can make it any more clear…
I bet when Chili finally is fired he snaps and takes his clothes off and starts running around with a crown on his head but instead of babbling incoherently he’ll actually start babbling coherently.
What if Chili picked up a new O.C. who was creative, and called a good game, would Bradley be more palatable then?
Firing a coach is kind of like asparagus. You can look it up if you want.
At this point I wouldn’t care if Chili named Chubs as his new OC.
The gravy-boat offense?
Except Chubs would probably put gravy in their IVs in case of dehydration.
He might also try to switch the mascot to a sheep.
Your old Pal Freds predicts an option play down by the goals line with Tarvarius this weeks. Kind of like the “wild cat”, but Vikes will dub it the “Bald Bat offense”.
No one would feel comfortable showering after the game with Chubs checking them out…
Thanks for that insight, Freddy! Now, your thoughts about life on Mars?
Brett Favre was lined up last night in the Wildcat formation. He was a receiver and stuck his hand up like Randy Moss as he was sprinting downfield.
That was kind of funny.
I think I speak for all of us in expressing our appreciation to Madieu for playing in a game this year. That was nice of him.
Don’t be an dumb bell Buds. Everyone knows there are no womens are Mars. Uranus, maybe….
There once was a lady named Alice
Used a dynamite stick as a phallis.
They found her vagina
In North Carolina,
And part of her anus in Dallas.
Dammit tomb why did you have to ask for limerics, I can’t stop now!
Jays,
You make your old Pal Fragiles look likes a genius. Thank you Richard.
Said a woman with open delight,
My pubic hairs perfectly white.
I admit there’s a glare,
But the fellows don’t care
They locate it more quickly at night.
LOL and LMAO Jay
There once was a whore from St. Paul
who took anyone, wide, short, or tall.
She said to her clients,
“It’s not really science —
It’s just that one size will fit all.”
I guess this explains why Busters hasn’t been around for a while…
Sorry to hear of your loss Busters my old homosexual friends.

I just heard Maddie pulled a muscle while reaching for the remote. This guy has been a complete waste of money, but then again he is resilient in collecting a check.
This one’s my favorite so far though:
There once was a vampire named Mable,
whose periods were really quite stable.
And every full moon,
she’d get out a spoon
and drink herself under the table.

Yeah Orlando isn’t it great how resilient Mad is? And wouldn’t it be awesome if Chili bothered to look into his FAs injury history a little bit?
If Fred could reach through his IBM 8088 computer, he would fist fights Jays.
What’s your f’n problem today fred? You’re starting to sound like Buster.
Come on Freds, it is Friday. Don’t be so upset, it is almost beer thirty.
Go Vikes
Get the meds situation under control and calm down.
ok, it was FREDS dog that died…sheesh. FRED needs a Colt 45.
Jay, nobody can be like Buster. Nobody.
Go Vikes
Agreed John.
Freds, Gus was one pitiful looking dog. He died at only 9 years old. I don’t know how old that is in dog years. Well it’d be nine dog years, I guess. The Swimming coach looked pitiful also. The purple/gold coat and hair reminded me of Chili.
Thank you Kennys
Trade deadline is tonight AVFF players.
Tomlinsons is on the trading blocks.
Who wants to trades???
Go Vikes
Freddy: I just sent you a proposal.
For a guy who can’t catch and a guy who is always hurt….
Who’s winning the Fantasy league?
Fred, from your description, sounds like the offer includes Rice and Shiancoe, eh?
LET THE WEEKEND BEGIN!
Got a big weekend laid out Coach?
Fred has them players already.
Go Vikes
