His Name Is Not Adrian Peterson. His Name Is Purple Jesus.
Learn it. Live it. Love it. Purple Jesus is here to unite all people in the name of treating oncoming linebackers like foster children.
It is a new day.

Glaring omission of “homerism” tag.
August 18th, 2007 at 8:24 am
yea, and lets not forget just how highly ranked the jets D was last year. let alone their fifth stringer preseason players…. though he did look good, i just hope he stays healthy - i drafted him in my FFBall league too.
August 18th, 2007 at 8:58 am
and yea he shall lead us to the promised land of 5-11. Just kidding…6-10.
August 18th, 2007 at 9:36 am
Drew’s right. This guy could be the next Mewelde Moore.
August 18th, 2007 at 9:46 am
I, too, noticed that the other team seemed to be wearing Jets’ uniforms. But I’m sure that didn’t matter, and there’s no reason to think it should keep you from bearing Purple Jesus babies.

dont be hating on the jets, chad pennington has enough super laser 5 yard screen passes to lead us to the super bowl!

The Vikes are the Bizarro Broncos. Instead of being able to take a new running back each year, plug them into the system and have success…

I, too, enjoyed watching Adrian Peterson deliver punishing blows to unknowing defensive backs as he head out of bounds, but how long can that last for an injury prone player?
It was like watching a new version of Emmitt Smith.
But you, better believe Peterson is the running back on my Madden franchise, injuries off.

Postings at 8:11 AM on weekends, what the hell is wrong with you BDD? Please get drunk or something tonight. If Peterson is Purple Jesus, Pat Williams must be all 12 Apostles.

Foster children should be loved, not smashed by mutants from Oklahoma.
August 18th, 2007 at 4:59 pm
I for one hope he is at least the Purple John the Baptist, because I own him in three different fantasy leagues.
August 18th, 2007 at 6:26 pm
Even as a Bears fan, I thought Adrian Peterson looked real good. OUR Adrian Peterson that is, HAHA! Adrian Peterson couldn’t hold Adrian Peterson’s jockstrap. Which Adrian Peterson am I talking about? I don’t even know!!

Having a kid means I wake at 7 every morning. It’ll happen to YOU.
Please get drunk or something tonight.
Just because I get up early doesn’t mean I’m not hungover.
If Peterson is Purple Jesus, Pat Williams must be all 12 Apostles.
That’s disciples, but well played nonetheless.

Oddly enough, “Purple Jesus” is the nickname I’ve given my penis. Even more odd, it looks much like Adrian Peterson.
No, wait, Mewelde Moore. It definately looks like Mewelde Moore.
August 18th, 2007 at 7:38 pm
No, he’s right, it’s the 12 Apostles, all of whom were disciples.
Holy shit, this religious high school education comes into play at the oddest moments…
August 18th, 2007 at 7:45 pm
13 apostles, 12 disciples…
They lost one disciple and added two apostles in the switch.
August 18th, 2007 at 8:19 pm
Peterson might be Purple Jesus, but despite Jackson’s roots in Alabama, he could be purple Judas.
August 18th, 2007 at 8:33 pm
As a Clevelander and by default browns fan…i think i died more today than i did yesterday…can’t wait to see my franchise left tackle ‘thomas’ wiff and let ‘brady quinn’ get decapitated…fun times.
August 18th, 2007 at 10:01 pm
Hey, I’ve got 2 kids and I didn’t get up till 8. Of course I also had nothing else too do today. I also only had a couple beverages.
August 18th, 2007 at 11:01 pm
after having gone to catholic school from when i was 5 until i graduated college, i’d like to point out that you’re all wrong. there is no god, sorry and none of those people ever existed… except purple jesus, except the real purple jesus goes by a different name… PRINCE

As a Jets fan, I can say with confidence that this play went exactly as Mangini planned.
While you Vikes fans celebrated, Mangini rubbed his hands together and muttered “it’s all falling into place.”
August 19th, 2007 at 11:31 am
Since it’s Sunday morn,
I’d say the original twelve could be designated as both apostles and disciples.
August 19th, 2007 at 1:07 pm
Jason Campbell’s knee is indestructible!!!
Fuck you Steeler queers.
August 19th, 2007 at 4:36 pm
Watching the NFL Network replay here in Texas of Campbell’s knee, I am forced to conclude that it has the properties of saltwater taffy in order for him to survive that hit.
Fuck you, Brett Keisel. Next time you best bring some kryptonite.
August 19th, 2007 at 6:52 pm
Clearly Keisel was a downgrade in the injuring QBs role so aptly performed by Kimo.
However, it was good to see Todd Collins outperform Campbell. Update your MVP tally, Maj.
August 19th, 2007 at 7:55 pm
I was at that game, but I got there like an hour late, so I didn’t even see Campbell play. I was, however, pleasantly surprised to find out that Mark Brunell is still on the Redskins (and that he still sucks).
August 19th, 2007 at 10:16 pm
Brady Quinn debut > Purple Jesus debut
August 20th, 2007 at 12:20 am
They shouldn’t have traded the disciple, those two Apostles were total busts.
August 20th, 2007 at 12:34 pm
I just hope nobody at the airport finds his Wizzinator.
Also, if that same run happens during the season, it ends with AP’s first NFL separated shoulder.
August 20th, 2007 at 3:07 pm
Wow. So you get all of that for 8, maybe 9 games each season. For the next 3 seasons. Tell the other backs to stay loose on the sideline.
August 20th, 2007 at 3:48 pm
I’m late to the party, but I think I figured out what to do with my 4th round pick. Injury-prone my ass, that’s why there’s a waiver-wire.
August 20th, 2007 at 4:01 pm
I’ll see you an Apostle and raise you two Disciples.
August 20th, 2007 at 5:24 pm
13-3? Dude.
Try 15-1.
SKOL VIKINGS!
September 12th, 2007 at 4:18 pm
where do we get our purple jesus t shirts?
August 20th, 2008 at 7:50 am
[...] out this video. Adrian peterson AKA Purple Jesus can destroy the competition easily. Unless you just came from under a rock you already knew this. [...]
