With former Minnesota receiver Troy Williamson, who now plays for the team’s next opponent in Jacksonville, popping off about wanting to “duke it out” with Vikings coach Brad Childress, the third-year head coach initially declined to respond.
But when pressed on his height and weight so that reporters could properly piece together the “tale of the tape” for the possible brawl, Childress couldn’t resist.
“Do you need my reach? I’m not like a woman; I’ll give you my weight. It’s 190 pounds of twisted steel and rompin’, stompin’ dynamite. Is that enough humor for you?”
Though Williamson is taller and heavier than Childress, Vikings defensive end Jared Allen would put his money on Chilly.
“Coach Childress is a tough-minded guy,” Allen said. “And he has a bad . . . mustache.”
We know one thing for sure. If a fought broke out, Childress would try to keep it close and hope that Williamson steps on a rake in the last round.

haha, as a Vikings fan, I hope for a dual knockout, but I agree Chilly ball will probably apply here too

There will be a bit of humor if Tice and Williamson beat Childress this weekend.
UNfortunately, I have to root against them, because no matter how much I dislike the coach, I still love my team.

Brad Childress is the dumbest most immature childish head coach there is. Wasn’t he saying how last week reporters were like people who shot wounded soldiers?

If I was Childress, my strategy would be to yell “Catch” then throw something to Williamson….and then, when he bent down to pick it up after it hit him right in the hands, I’d kick him in the head and then run like a girl.

troy couldnt see good enough to land a good shot
either that or
his hands are as useless as the tits on a male hog,
based on his performance id have to gauge its the latter
of the 2.
troy wants to hit coach because he will probably be inactive
again this week and wont be hitting anything except his right
hand agst his groin

A Childress vs. Williamson cage match? I don’t know if I’m more surprised by Williamson, spouting off nasty about his former coach when he will be wearing zubaza sweats on the sidelines or by Childress, coming up with an off the cuff, humorous remark.
Troy, you had your shot, you flopped. Get over it.
Childress, you’ve had your shot, finish off this season with at least a playoff win and you can continue.

If a fight broke out, Chilly would have Bryant McKinnie step in.

I’m confused. Did he say, “Do you need my reach?” or “Do you need a reach-around?”
Both of them will be out of football soon enough. Maybe this could be a real matchup on some celebrity boxing show. Here’s a nice visual (Screech kicks the “horshack” out of… Horshack): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j1ZkdGJj2s8
I wonder if Urkel called dibs on the winner.
On topic: Isn’t a head coach in the NFL supposed to be above childish bickering with ex-players? Not that Williamson is a well-adjusted, fully functional adult human. But geez.

lol Troy m’boy. Just keep your mouth shut. Remember that Chicago game when you caught the 60 yard bomb for a TD? That had been your first TD since 2005. That’s just terrible. Shut up and ride that pine, would you?

How about J Allen sticking up for his boy! You gotta appreciate the moustache. Although Allens is more of a porn stache, and Chillys is a child molester stache.

“I’m not like a woman; I’ll give you my weight. ”
Don’t stop there Childress, a woman would have the Vikings prepared for situational football. A woman would understand basic concepts like clock management, timeouts, and math.
