Welcome to the Wednesday edition of The Cooler, where the more things change … let’s get to it:
*I’d like to see Blair Walsh succeed. I believe there should be a limit to human suffering, to the prison of one’s own mind, and that somewhere within Walsh there lives the kicker who was dominant as a Vikings rookie in 2012 — absolutely an underrated reason that Christian Ponder-led team went 10-6 and made the playoffs — but has fought the yips periodically since then and particularly after missing wide left in the playoffs after the 2015 season.
Walsh is the subject of one of the funniest and most sincere moments I’ve ever witnessed at Vikings training camp, and he did not run away from his lowest professional moment.
