Moss and The Vikings second marriage. I hope they have a prenup.

There are credible sources stating that Randy Moss was released because of one and possibly multiple outbursts over post practice meals. Apparently these tirades became such a problem that coaches and some other players just assumed to not have him on the team anymore.
My feelings and thoughts on this subject are simple.Randy Moss is without doubt, one of the greatest wide receivers to ever grace any football field. Whether it be High School, College, or the NFL, he completely obliterates competition. Yes, i do understand that he has been through some bad publicity, but I know that no one can out jump him, with his 51' inch vertical leap. I could care less what he does off the field, all I care about is the pure greatness his shows us all, on the field.The fact that he was released because of a outburst over what kind of food was prepared is ridiculous. If the man doesn't like food, go get a intern to get him something to eat. Simple. I'll be the first to admit, that if the reports are true, then YES, he is an asshole. But this asshole can play the hell out of the game, us Americans, call football.

Here are some of his Stats/Records in the NFL:
