To the Minneapolis Warriors, Character Counts – Many Professional and College football teams are doing more to investigate players off the field character before drafting or signing them. Teams want players they can count on to be dependable and productive teammates on and off the field. The Minneapolis Warriors are no different in this aspect, with a strong commitment to excellence and success; sound character is one of the most important qualities, the Warriors expect everyone involved in the organization.
