And if he does, Todd Pinkston could become the owner of the slimmest, most attractive pair of legs on anyone, male or female, in the state of Minnesota. Here's what ESPN.com's Len Pasquarelli had to say about the Vikings' reported interest: One of those teams could be the Minnesota Vikings, who could use a veteran wide receiver to augment their current corps of pass-catchers. First-year Vikings coach Brad Childress is the former offensive coordinator of the Eagles and is familiar with Pinkston's history.Hm. I'd have thought that the only teams that were interested in Pinkston would be the ones that weren't familiar with his history. I mean, I hate to pile on the guy after he was recently cut, but he did do this (link courtesy of ProFootballTalk.com).
If Pinkston ends up moving to Minnesota, I can't help but be concerned about the strain that's going to put on his relationship with Len Pasquarelli. Long-distance relationships can be so difficult. Best of luck, you guys.

Good article and create link to the video. It kind of made me sad, not because he chickened out on the catch, but because ESPN broke up Theisman and Patrick, who I've always thought were the best two-man announcing crew in the business.

Childress has to know that Pinkston nickname is alligator arms. I guess it beats having a drunk catch balls for you.

I've heard Paquarelli has a *very* close relationship with Pinky's agent. That's how the whole story of how the Eagles "gave permission" for Pinky to seek a trade when in reality they cut him less than a day later. That was complete bull shit on the part of Pinky's agent and Len P. trying to make people think Pinky was worth anything. It's kind of sad really because if he was truly healthy he is a decent player.
