It’s hard to believe that it’s been eight years since the National Football League and their Players’ Association were engaged in their most recent labor battle. Fans of the Minnesota Vikings will certainly remember it. . .because of the lockout, new head coach Leslie Frazier didn’t get the extra time to prepare his team that most new coaches are afforded. Then again, I’m not sure how much it would have helped, given that the ensuing season gave rise to the Donovan McNabb “era” in Minnesota en route to the purple finishing with a 3-13 record, tied for the worst mark in team history since the advent of the 16-game schedule.
