While the campiness and the tradition of Mankato will be missed..... This place is something else. What a first class facility this is. Just amazing.
If you have any questions throughout the next couple of days ask them here and we will try and get an answer.
Looking forward to doing the interviews, publishing reports and seeing all the fans out here.
Is this thing on?
YEAH! So looking forward to the updates, interviews and everything you guys do. Rock on!
I posted this in another thread as well, but thought I would also post it here.
I was there with my family last Saturday and took a bunch of pictures (over 200), more so of the facility and the museum than the practice itself, since the players were a decent ways away from us, but I did get a few of those as well.
I've been meaning to post them here but there are a lot of them, especially of the new Vikings museum. Does anyone know if there are any restrictions on posting pictures of the museum?
Also, what would be the best way to post a bunch of pictures? Should I just create a shareable link to a google photos album that people can click on?
i think the question everyone wants to know are how cousins looks and how the OL looks....will hill hill hold up, can oneil play this year etc etc
Mike, are these guys going home after practice - or staying at a hotel??

They stay at the Country Inn and Suites about 2 miles away. When the new hotel is finished inside the complex, they will stay there. The vets can drive to practice, but many of the rookies don't have cars yet, so they are shuttled back and forth

We are too early - this morning was just a walkthrough and you and I would look good at half speed with no defense. We will know more from the afternoon practices

Not only would we look good, we would look good doing it.

I hope they create a bike path between the new hotel and practice facilities so the bike tradition can be re-instituted.
I am always interested in improvement -- which player would you say has improved the most from last training camp?

We will ask the Viking officials about that plan, and we AGREE with you. Mankato had a cheesy appeal to it, that brought players closer to the fans. The new complex is MUCH more high-tech, but as very picturesque backdrop that screams Minnesota.
