if this ends up being serious (i hope its not) ,for all you OU guys, this is great news for Peterson and his playing time opportunity

It's an early report and we hope to have more information later but wanted to pass
this along to you regarding Vikings RB Chester Taylor.
He was carted off the field this morning after a shoulder / arm injury.

Clipped from the Star Tribune article by Judd Zulgad:
Chester Taylor left Blakeslee Stadium on a cart this morning with a right shoulder
or right arm injury. Taylor, who rushed for more than 1,000 yards last season, was
hit after catching a pass and, after a short period of time, appeared to be in a
lot of pain.

Obviously, it's way too early to go wild here but we'll keep a very close eye on
this for you. Adrian Peterson is a guy we absolutely love but Chester Taylor poses
an obstacle for him with regard to playing time. If Taylor were limited, that would
boost Peterson in a big way. Stay tuned.

What? There is joy in Mooseville because a guy gets hurt and that promotes a fantasy pick player?
How ghoulish......

I'm not an OU guy or even an Adrian Peterson fan...i actually think Taylor got the raw end of the deal because he was playing in Lewis' shadow in baltimore, got his one season in Minnesota and they decided to draft a stud RB
That blurb is from a fantasy site though so that is why there is a slant to how it reads

I don't see any joy in this, nor celebrating. But it is what it is, AP will now get more playing time.

Chester Taylor didnt propose a threat to AD anyhow.
Get out of the way, because there's a new #1 back on the horizon.

Chester, Adrian, Fason and Moore was probably the best backfield in the NFL. Hopefully Chester the Molestor is okay!

My under 7 Vikings wins I placed in Vegas this weekend is looking good. How can this be good for the rookie who now has more pressure on him to go with the add. pounding to his knee on the polish turf in the dome? Their QB is a joke so AP better rest up since everyone will be keying their D towards him.
