VIKINGS FIRE BRAD CHILDRESS

[law3001]

The Minnesota Vikings have relieved Brad Childress of his coaching duties and promoted defensive coordinator Leslie Frazier to interim coach for the rest of the season, the team said.

Frazier and Vikings owner Zygi Wilf are scheduled to hold a news conference at 4 p.m. ET at the team's facility.

The Vikings, tabbed as a preseason Super Bowl pick, struggled to a 3-7 record amid dysfunction. Wilf had said he would stick with Childress, but the last straw was apparently the team's humbling 31-3 loss to the archrival Green Bay Packers on Sunday.

The 31-3 loss was his most-lopsided home defeat in Childress' five years as Vikings coach, dropping his overall record to 40-37, including 1-2 in the playoffs.

Next they need to bench Farves ancient %%+

So I wonder if Frazier will have the guts to bench Favre?  Their season is done so now is the time to make a decision on Jackson or the 3rd string.

First good thing to happen to the Vikes this year.

Now just put Favre out to pasture for good and pray that the Eagles don't resign MV7

and they'll be right back decent next season.
