What is the opening banter about Vikings training camp and the hosts’ gear?
As the YouTube audience can see, our guy Judd is ready for his first day of NFL training camp today at Vikings camp. He's got his Judd's Camp Notes notebook. He's got his bucket hat to protect against the sun. You got your little kind of miniature binoculars.
Yep, it's my new look this season.
The field glasses, is that what you?
Yep, yep, and I'm wearing those. I previously had a pair that was older and smaller, and it just was not effective. Dex turned me on to these. They're great. Can you put those in your pocket, or are they just hanging around your neck, I suppose, right? I'm going to hang it around my neck just to, like, The team will be like, what's he doing? What's he looking at? I can't tell you.
You don't want to be accused of reaching in your pocket.
Oh, my God, what's he got? No, it's just binoculars. It's just binoculars. It's just binoculars. Yeah, I got the notepad. Fresh, too. Yeah. Fresh.
You got a freshie.
We got two. We got one fresh.
Lots of notes are going in that thing over the next month.
In fact, you know what? Training camp notebook one. That's what I'm going to put on it right now.
How many of those are we going to go through?
I've actually got three from last year still.
Can we get to four? Can we get to four? Just a couple more little details here. Just a couple more quotes.
We get three and a half probably. I don't know if we could fill up four full.
With the rep counter with the QB competition, I think we might be getting to four this year.
That's a good point. The rep counter at Vikings camp, we're going to need the ADOT measurements. You'll get the ADOT. You'll get the rep counter. Don't forget pistol, shotgun, and under center percentages for each quarterback.
You forget how quickly these drills move. You forget how. But definitely tracking completions, which O'Connell talked about yesterday. He wants completions. And definitely tracking reps, snaps. What drills they come in, seven-on-seven, team, move the ball. It's on.
I love it. It's a glorious day. We've got Thor Nystrom in the house, Phil Mackey here along with the sports dad, Judd. Thor from Thor Talks Purple. Football takes.

I'd love to. I'd love to because I'm protected from the sun right now. And in fact, this football take comes from a place where the sun is extremely hot because it comes from Las Vegas. My football take is this. Clint Kubiak, stop it. You're not fooling anybody. Kirk Cousins might be your starter on opening day. I don't know, okay? But this notion that Fernando Mendoza is not going to play at all as a rookie, and that Clint painted this, it's not a competition, you guys. It's everyone's helping each other. And all the quarterbacks are singing Kumbaya, Aiden O'Connell, and Kirk Cousins, and Fernando Mendoza, and there's no competition here. Okay, so you're telling me this. You're telling me that one of the GOATs
TB12, Tom Brady, last time I checked, owns a piece of this team, very involved. You're telling me that he's going to watch number eight, check the ball down occasionally. I mean, he's got his attributes. Kirk does.
