I felt the little Diddy on AD (http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,303257,00.html) warranted mention.

Not sure I like the "Purple Jesus" nickname--think I'll stick with AD.

It would be good on the back of his vikings jersey, though....

I agree, it's kinda funny in an irreverent sort of of way. Looks like he's walking on water right now around MN anyway.

Everyone knows that Jesus was black, not purple. I mean, the middle east was not exactly lilly white in 00 BC.

That's just wrong. Really wrong.
AD - God bless him - is a just a really great football player.
He hasn't healed anyone or taught anyone or been crucified. Whoever thought up that purple Jesus stuff up is lame and shallow.

Bad taste, very bad taste.

What they outta do is call him the Purple Mohammed and see what happens.

I've even seen places call him "AP". When will people get it right? You know... what if he still played at OU? Do yo think OU would be better or worse? Hmmm... I think AD needs to come up with some kind of TD dance. Maybe like using his two hands and making his fingers look like Viking horns on his head.... that would be cool. Oh... and run across the end field like the two peasants off of MP Holy Grail with the coconuts. Then everyone will know he's for real!

for christ sakes, can you not just read a harmless football thread as what it is....a harmless football thread? leave your faux religious persecution complex/made up secret liberal agenda crap in the south oval. at this point, your responses are so predictable. :rolleyes:

I never really thought it was particularly offensive when people referred to Larry Bird as Basketball Jesus.

I've been hearing "Purple Jesus" for a few weeks now, particularly from Bears fans.

Just said it was in bad taste, didn't say it was harmful or anything.

Sounds like you need to relax and take it easy or something. :rolleyes:

Maybe Purple Moses would have been more appropriate. After all, they're hoping AD will lead them out of..................

LOL. I love it. No matter what anyone says, Adrian Peterson is AMAZING! A work buddy of mine, back in the summer, said he thought AD was overrated. I talked to him the other day and, he humbly conceded that he was wrong.

He's breaking records as a rookie, he's fun to watch, and he makes me enjoy the NFL.

Sunday's aren't so boring anymore, and I wonder what he is going to do next game.
