[QUOTE="FrankRizzo, post: 412054, member: 2232"] One of my best friend's is friends with Jared Allen, even was invited to Jared's wedding I think 2 summers ago(he's in a famous country music band and that's how he's gotten to know a lot of pro athletes -Cutler, Scheffler, Hutchinson), and I've heard all kinds of things about Jared, good and bad. But he just said this about the Vikings, and the hellhole cities of Detroit and New Orleans, so I now have some more respect for Allen! [B]"I don't like going to Detroit," Allen said. "I'll be honest, it's gloomy, it sucks. Everything is brown and then there is snow on the ground. There's like Brownstones everywhere and I'm like, 'Awesome.' I don't know, I couldn't do it. If I had to live in Detroit, I think I'd just drown myself in the river that was across the way. [/B] [B]"I'm not trying to be mean, but it's just depressing when I go there," he continued. "There's two cities like I don't go out to eat or don't do anything. It's Detroit and New Orleans. New Orleans looks like I'm driving through a third-world country every time I get off the plane, I'm like, 'Oh, flak jacket.' I'm trying to get down. I'm like, 'Ah, crap, I can't carry my gun here. This sucks.'"[/B] [B]Harsh words.[/B] [B]Allen expressed frustration over the Vikings' struggles this season, but said the team still has a significant motivator to go out and play hard each week. [/B] [B]"Our goal right now is not to be the worst team in Vikings history," Allen said. "We need to win two games -- one win to tie it, two and two to beat it. That's our motivation."[/B] [/QUOTE]
