Minnesota Vikings Training Camp Set for Jul.30

Shirley Norling
It's hard to believe that in little over a month the Minnesota Vikings will be heading to Mankato, Mn. for training camp. Training camp starts for our Minnesota Vikings on Jul. 30. They're set to arrive in Mankato on Jul.29 and be ready for practice the following day. It seems like it was just yesterday that the Superbowl was played, without our Minnesota Vikings participating of course. Hopefully as they start their 50th season this year they will make it to the big game-the one and only "Superbowl".

There will be some of the familiar faces at training camp like Adrain Peterson. There were also be some new faces their this year including Toby Gerhert, Nate Triplett and Ryan Moats. Brett Favre is still playing the guessing game with the Minnesota Vikings, so I'm guessing he probably won't make the Vikings training camp this year again. It's no surprise to anyone that Favre doesn't like training camp. It's just a matter of time when we find out if Brett Favre will be selling Wrangler jeans from Minnesota or Mississippi. Evidence is overwhelming he will be back in Minnesota and playing for the Vikings even if he doesn't make it to the Vikings training camp.

Some of the team leaders for the Vikings are Brett Favre with 4,202 passing yards, Adrian Peterson with 1,383 rushing yards, and Sidney Rice with 1,312 receiving yards. E.J. Henderson is confident that his broken leg will be healed and he will be ready to play when training camp starts on Jul.30. and will be on the field in the starting lineup for the season opener at New Orleans on Sept.9. He had surgery on his leg last Dec. in Arizona.

Performance mouth wear is some of the latest gear for the Vikings. The Bite Tech's innovative product has been proven to increase strength, endurance and flexibility and also helps reduce stress. Hundreds of professional athletes already wear this new product. Three current Vikings- Berrian, Herrera, and Adrian Peterson feel so confident about this product, they have invested in the company.

We wish our Minnesota Vikings the best as they head to training camp on Jul. 30. Maybe if all goes well when they go to training camp in 2011, they will be wearing Superbowl rings.
