    Vikings special teams coordinator Mike Priefer fired a brushback pitch at his activist punter after Chris Kluwe was fined for violating the NFL's uniform policy by taping "Vote Ray Guy" over the Pro Football Hall of Fame emblem on his jersey against Chicago, Brian Murphy of the St. Paul Pioneer-Press.

    Kluwe was fined $5,250 for the public shout-out to Guy, the former Oakland Raiders great whom he is advocating to be the first punter enshrined.

    Priefer casually was asked at the end of his weekly news conference whether he would hide the Post-It notes from Kluwe this week to prevent a repeat of the stunt, and he used the question to take his punter to task.

    "Those distractions are getting old for me to be quite honest with you," Priefer said Thursday, Dec. 13. "Do I think Ray Guy deserves to be in the Hall of Fame? Absolutely. But there's other ways of going about it, in my opinion."

    "To me it's getting old. He's got to focus on punting and holding," Priefer said.

    He was asked whether he shared that with Kluwe.

    "Nah," Priefer said. "He don't listen."

    The same team who put up with Brett Favre's 24/7 attention whoring is mad with a guy who writes the odd letter on the internet and violating the uniform policy. Meanwhile, Percy Harvin is smoking out his last remaining brain cells.

    Priorities Minnesota, Priorities...
