Hail to Purple; Hail to White...

Hail to Minnie-Ha-Ha (the Vikings, that is). Ofeadi Odenigbo, the Vikings 7th round draft pick in 2017, is making the most of what pre-season playing opportunities he has been given by that Purple & White pro team up North. The lightly-regarded 2017 rookie, for whom every interviewed player, veteran and journeyman alike, couldn't spell his name correctly (see YouTube linkie below), led the Vikes in tackles last evening against their grapple against Seahawks: 6 total - 4 solo, 2 assists; a sack & a forced fumble. True he didn't start, which meant that his competition was "watered-down" somewhat, but he did whatever he could with what playing time was afforded him by the Vikings defensive brain trust. Bottom line: he made an impactful contribution in what otherwise was a throughly putrid performance by the overmatched VIkings facing the playoffs-motivated Seahawks.

Congrats Ifeadi...

This is the only spelling competition in which the gentleman from Turkmenistan would not finish last. (I think.)

Had to listen to the end to get a winner. Not sure how he even got the silent "G". Cool that the winner had won the spelling bee in 4th grade.
