Moss Sprouts New Roots

There’s joy in Packerville. In a deal to be made official this week, Green Bay’s NFL archrival, the Minnesota Vikings, will trade Randy Moss, the greatest and arguably most troublesome wide receiver in team history, to the Oakland Raiders. Minnesota gets linebacker Napoleon Harris plus two draft picks in return for Moss, whose teammates have grown weary of his rock-star antics–in January during a play-off win against the Packers, Moss pretended to drop his pants and moon the Green Bay crowd (the fans are known for mooning the buses of opposing teams). Maybe he was just trying to turn the other cheek?
