Judd Zulgad has been on the NFL beat since the 2003 season, when he began a (gasp) two-year stint covering the Green Bay Packers for the Star Tribune. Zulgad has covered the Vikings since 2005 and is as shocked as anyone that he is again following the daily exploits of Brett Favre.
Chip Scoggins knew his second season covering the Vikings would be eventful when he saw the news helicopter tracking Brett Favre to Winter Park and a guy dressed in a full parrot costume standing outside.

DiggSteve Hutchinson is about as tough as they come. Thus, the Vikings Pro Bowl left guard isn't about to begin discussing how he feels with anyone.
But because Hutchinson has missed some practice time this season due to an issue with his back, his condition has been noted on the injury report on occasion. It also has been discussed by some people around the Vikings that Hutchinson isn't at 100 percent.
But offensive coordinator Darrell Bevell said Thursday that he feels Hutchinson is feeling good -- or as good as an NFL player can feel -- entering the second half of the season. The Vikings bye week certainly did not hurt matters.
"I think Hutch is back," Bevell said. "I think that he is physically where he needs to be and ready to go. All of these guys obviously have bumps and bruises, but I don't think that there is anything major wrong with him."
