Tiki Barber is in disagreement on this.
There are so precious few believable FACTS on this one that it is hard to come down with a firm opinion. That said, my thinking is Adrian was apparently a good and committed dad who just wanted to mete out some discipline to his kid . So far, so good.
But, did he go too far? If so, by what degree did he go too far? My gut tells me that the Vikings PC department is staying up too late each night!
