DE Jared Allen • Minnesota Vikings

Last year he shaved a stripe into his mullet for each sack. For ’08 he’s got a new do and a new team. Watch out.

You’re a rodeo fan. can you compare getting knocked off a horse to getting pancaked by an offensive lineman like Orlando Pace?
I grew up on a ranch, riding and roping, cutting and branding. My grandpa and dad thought it was funny to put me and my older brother on the backs of cows as kids to see who could stay on longer. You can really get the wind knocked out of you in both, but you’ve got to just get up and, you know, get back on the horse.

In the off-season, you went cliff diving, swam with sharks, and hunted for wild boar. How else do you get an adrenaline fix?
I traveled to Spain and went running with the bulls. That was one of the coolest experiences of my entire life.

How do your coaches feel about all this thrill seeking? 
They pretend to hate it, but I think they enjoy the adventurous side of me. I got love for life. They don’t want someone who plays like a robot.

What’s your strategy on trash talking? 
I do it as much as I possibly can. If I can get them thinking about wanting to fight me, then I’ve already won. But mothers and sisters are off-limits. Wives and children, too. Mostly, I’ll question a guy’s manhood in various ways. Let him know he’s completely worthless. Tell him how bad I beat him and that I’m about to do it again. And again.
