Nah, from what I've gathered, he went on a twitter tirade about how Trump needs to get the wall up, otherwise Mexicans are gonna rape his children, and or force them to take drugs at gun point.
does anyone have a link to that twitter rant?
It was earlier this year and he deleted it.
I doubt he's just now getting fired over that

I'm assuming that's your interpretation of what was said and not what was actually said. What did he actually say?

I wouldn't be surprised if it factored in heavily.. on his last legs sort of deal. Say what you want about free country and all that.. companies don't want that sort of stuff associated with them.

Yeah I dunno....

He was just in KC Sunday to cover the game and it'd make no sense just to up and fire him from comments on Twitter a month ago unless he did it again and/or it was a collection of things he's said/done/acted and something broke the camels back

But yeah, if you're a team representative like he was, leave politics/religion/other stuff out of your internet rants.

You sure he was there covering for the team? They had Cove and Sauce working in the booth with PA.. no mention of Wobby.

I would assume so unless he flew there on his own dime and hung out with P.A. and the Vikings P.R. guy and everybody was all smiles. I doubt the Vikes would be pleased with their PxP and head P.R. guy hanging out with someone they just shit canned.

If that’s all he said, I don’t think he should have been canned. But I a thread like that, it’s easy to imagine that more was said.

But saying things like “Dems only interest is obstructionism and chaos” when you work for a very public company (that got a massive public handout for a stadium) in a blue state just isn’t smart.

There was more than that. He was responding to people for most of an afternoon.

But yeah, I'm guessing things have happened behind the scenes.

Possibilities:
-pulled a Ragnar and axed for more money.
-sexual assault settlement for PA touching him in the genitalia.
-Mad cuz Hawkey stole his TV show.
-got a lil too touchy feely with erin andrew
-fire for drug use because long hours caused him to do drugs so he could work longer, make more money, buy more drugs so he can work longer.

He was a poor man’s John Clayton anyway.



Whatever happened to him? Is he still in the game? His Slayer ESPN promo was great!

Wobby had ZERO original thoughts and sounded like a doofus.

However by parroting what he heard around the new Winter Park he indirectly provided some insights into the team's thinking.

You could tell which players were in the team's plans and which ones were not based upon Wobby's cheerleading or lack thereof.

That is the only reason I'll miss him.

Sounds like a framejob to me.

I'll bet said turd belonged to Marney, Sal Spice, or maybe even Falen but was so enormous Ziggy assumed it could only have been left by a grown man.

I'm guessing the 24th or the 25th was his last day. Thats when he stopped tweeting numerous times every day. Kind of part of his job to do that.

So here's what we know...

24th or 25th was last day on social media.

A mysterious tweet about "Dems"

Took a picture of a turd at Vikings HQ and we have yet to identify who laid said turd.
