The Facts: Following up on the ongoing story. ... April 22 is the first day of the Vikings offseason workouts at Winter Park and rest assured Harvin won’t be there. There has been a lot of speculation about Harvin’s future with the Vikings, and the wide receiver has refused to comment about the different reports. However, the latest word from some good sources around the NFL is that Harvin has told the Vikings that he doesn’t want to play for them and wants to be traded.

Diehards Line: This according to long-time Star-Tribune columnist Sid Hartman, who went to rehash the obvious: "Harvin’s relationship with the Vikings has been much-discussed, including rumors that he isn’t pleased with the coaches’ plans for him on offense and that he does not get along with the medical staff. Quite simply, it seemed as though Harvin wasn’t happy here, and that was made obvious when he didn’t hang around the team during the late-season push toward the playoffs while he rehabbed his ankle. ..." We'll go ahead and suggest that while Hartman states his case rather definitively, the truth is he only adds to the speculation. Stay tuned. There will be more -- "a lot" more -- speculation just like this before we get resolution.
