This week's podcast is back to actually talking Vikings football. Back in 1997, I had conducted a series of interviews with Vikings coaches and front office personnel. Back then, I had used an old micro-cassette recorder to conduct the interview and then set to transcriping it for the ol' Viking Underground. You see, there were no such things as digital recorders or podcasts in those dark days of yore.
I recently located those old tapes and have set to making them available via VU podcasts. While they are dated, they make good listening. For example, this week's podcast is from min-camp (circa April) 1997 when I sat down with Brian Billick, then offensive coordinator for the Vikings. It is interesting to hear Billick speak to such players as Robert Smith, Brad Johnson, and Randall McDaniel knowing what we know now.
So sit back and listen to the good ol' days. I think you'll like this one. Next week, we'll look back at my interview with Foge Fazio, the defensive coordinator in 1997.
