“Yeah, I don’t feel good about it,” said Dayton when asked about the Minnesota Vikings decision to release outspoken punter Chris Kluwe.
“I’m not in a position to evaluate the relative punting abilities, but it seems to me the general manager said, right after the draft, they were going to have competition,” Dayton recalled. “Well, they bring the one guy in, he kicks for a weekend and that’s competition?
“I just think sports officials ought to be honest about what the heck is going on, same way I think public officials should be honest about what’s going on, so that bothers me probably as much, if not more, than the actual decision,” Dayton said.

I feel that I have some reason to comment here, having lived thirty years of my life in Minnesota. Mark Dayton is without a doubt one of the least able of the Dayton spawn ... lots of money, because of his smart, hard-working forebears, and little common sense. The family bought him a governorship. Now, he spends his hours trying to figure out what he is supposed to be doing. Sad.
Mark, you are not a member of Vikings’ management. You do your job (to the best - cringe - of your ability). Let the Vikings do theirs.
Lil Mark is off his Meds again.
DFL: Dumb F*cking Liberals
‘Put some ice on it!’, Dayton! jerk. he knows about as much about football as he does politics
Affirmative action for liberal thought. Don’t laugh, it’s coming.....
They may be doing him a favor by releasing him early if they have made up their minds to switch.
As far as I’ve ever known, this punter is basically a mediocre no-load.
I’ve followed the NFL for years, I had to go look this dummy up.
If this kind of thing is going on here regarding homosexuality, just imagine, IMAGINE what is going to happen (or is currently happening) in the military with advancement boards.
If I were a fringe player in any pro sport, about to lose my millions per year salary because I’m not as good or as cheap as the young kids coming along, I would declare myself queer to protect my job. What a brilliant idea - wait, too late.
Released for his viewpoint. I hope he sues the Vikings and the NFL for viewpoint discrimination.
“Released for his viewpoint.”
According to the stats he is the worst punter in the NFL. I do not believe it has anything to do with viewpoints. I think it has everything to do with ability.
He would if he had been buried alive.
So... Is this punter a turd poker?
Is Dayton?
What’s with all the chippy anus lovers these days?
It’s gotten way out of hand.
In Liberal LaLa Land, yes
No pro sports team needs locker room distractions.
