Minnesota Vikings plan shorter camp

Chester Taylor , Adrian Peterson and the rest of the Vikings will be back doing drills when training camp opens July 31 in Mankato, Minn.

[duh]

Is this a Favre Demand? I wonder...

[Mad Dog Gus]

Favre knows the "West Coast Offense" so well that he could teach it...no need to burn out with a long camp!

In fact, the worry is that Favre may already be burnt!

What will his reaction be when he's replaced by Sage??? Prima Donna's don't make for pleasant bench players.

Obviously me and TJack dont know it very well. Hope Favre doesnt get injured. I need all the West Coast helicopter maneuver practice I can get.

Instead of a SHORTER camp....they SHOULD start EARLIER.

I mean, isn't that the way it works in any regular buisness??.....if you think you're not gonna get all your work done on time......you come to work early and do everything you can to get it done!

And with as much as these guys get paid.....THEY SHOULD WORK HARDER!!!

ALL WORK & NO PLAY.....MAKES THE VIKINGS A KICK-A S S TEAM!!!!!!

GO VIKINGS!!!!!!!!

[Favre]

What am I getting into? One-N-Done and the team feels they can cut camp short?

Classes at MSU......

Give me a break. What is more important people? Educating our yourth or Football Practice? Some people don't have their priorities straight!

There better not be any late reports to camp this year.

It's a veteran team that doesn't need to get the crap kicked out of it before the season starts. I like the strategy.

Do you recall Purple People Eaters not practicing for reasons like "tired"? Grant defended them by saying, paraphrased, "they're veterans and we can expect them to know what they need."

We are a "veteran" team that went One-N-Out. Practice needed.

You want for that I should come to Mississippi and slaps dem dentures oughta yer head?

[Favre]

I would like that. Maybe then I could stick with choice to retire (again) after I had some common sense knocked into me. Whe will you be here?
