Favre4Ever+ 4,476 Posted July 28, 2011 Leave it to Minnesota Vikings punter Chris Kluwe to insert some humor into what has been a tense day for his organization. Kluwe has worn No. 5 for the Vikings since his 2005 arrival. Upon the news that quarterback Donovan McNabb had agreed to a trade that would send him to the Vikings, Kluwe immediately placed a price (via Twitter) on the number McNabb has worn for his entire career. So here's the deal. If McNabb comes and wants 5, it's his, BUT he has to promise to mention Tripping Icarus in at least 5 press conferences. Who (or what) is Tripping Icarus? Naturally, it's a Minneapolis-based alternative rock band. Kluwe is the bassist. ESPN NFC N Blog Lmao... I had a good laugh. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DonovanMcnabb for H.O.F 2,241 Posted July 30, 2011 You still a Dmac fan no that he wears the enemies colors, Dmac? Outside of the Sundays where we'll possibly be losing to the Packers, the two Sundays where we play the Vikings will be the hardest for me to watch. >_> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
