Thoughts from River Falls..

My wife and I are spending our vacation this summer in the Twin Cities area while we attend camp in River Falls. Yesterday we got our first taste at the 9 am practice and returned at 3:30 for the afternoon session.

The best part of attending camp for me is getting to be close enough to the team that I can hear the coaches coaching. During the morning practice, I was watching Chan Gailey work with his RBs and QBs on the mechanics of a middle screen play...RB selling the fake, pivoting at the right time to receive the ball and then turning upfield. I could hear every word Chan was saying and with a pair of binoculars, it was like standing right there in the midst as your favorite NFL team is being shaped and forged. What a great vacation!

We also got a kick out of watching and listening to Gun work with his linebackers. He's classic.

Today, we are just hoping for good weather for the Vikings scrimmage tonight.....Hopefully Branden Albert is drinking some Red Bulls or something since he'll be dealing with Jared Allen tonight!

Childress doesn’t want to put up with the circus if JA came tonight so he gave him the night off. I must admit, that just made today a little less exciting.
