Check out what Minneapolis mayor R.T. Rybak had to say when he appeared alongside Green Bay mayor James T. Schmitt during yesterday's "The Ed Show" on MSNBC. Rybak should be flagged for unsportsmanlike mayoring when he launches into a 22-second unprovoked attack on former Viking Randy Moss. In trying to describe as how sometimes players just don't fit the teams they play for, Rybak said: "I think there are some times when a fit just doesn't work with the team anymore. Like Randy Moss may be the greatest receiver anywhere around, but I don't want that guy to ever come back into the city of Minneapolis again. He was a jerk when he was here, and, uh, Brett wasn't a jerk when he was over there. There's a different deal, but sometimes fits don't work in football, so, hey, he fits beautifully here and we are happy to take him." Moss wasn't an angel, but let's not go overboard in making him out to be Public Enemy No. 1 and also not forget that because of Moss, the Vikings became relevent in Minneapolis again, because of Moss, the city's Metrodump started selling out again in fact, it's no accident that the current streak of sellouts began when Moss was drafted in 1998.

He called him a jerk - hardly what I'd call an inflamatory and news worthy slur... Come to think of it Randy Moss is a jerk and thats what I like about him.
"I don't want that guy to ever come back into the city of Minneapolis again" save those feelings for troy williamson.
Hilarious that all the mayor had was to bash Randy Moss for putting asses in the seats at the Metrodome yet they were talking about Favre yet again, swallow the cum already you've sucked enough of his junk.
Wont be loving Favre so much when he throws 4 picks in the playoff game this year. And when he takes his time to decide whether or not to retire or not.... Funny too because Brett loves Randy Moss and wanted to play with him badly.
He's a captain on our team. Go figure? We love the guy. Works his butt off, and keeps out of trouble.
eh, it's just hard feelings ............ Moss is a fine teammate when he's happy and he's happy in NE.
Prolly Green Bays major had a other opinion on this, but to shut up is sometimes smarter... I aslways saw Moss as a cocky butt when he was at Minnesota and I expected to be this at NE too. He proved me wrong...
