Minnesota Vikings News and Links, 7/8

This is probably the first day back to work for a lot of folks. . .well, it was for me, anyway. . .so let's go ahead and get right into it.

Since the last time we brought you an open thread. . .

-Wide receiver Greg Jennings has been spending his time before Training Camp helping folks to find water in the desert.

-On the other end of the spectrum, we have former Vikings offensive tackle Bryant McKinnie. . .well, being Bryant McKinnie.

-Ted took a look at SI.com's Doug Farrar taking a look at the 2014 Minnesota Vikings.

-The biggest name in football video games was nearly former Vikings quarterback Joe Kapp.

From some other sources across the internet. . .

-The Vikings have a shade over $8 million in salary cap space remaining. What should they do with it?

-Cris Carter says that the Cleveland Browns should cut troubled wide receiver Josh Gordon.

-Former Vikings' linebacker Jack Del Rio has been selected to the USC Hall of Fame.

The rules of the Open Thread are the same as they've ever been, ladies and gentlemen. . .no politics, no religion, no feeding of the trolls, keep the language relatively clean (with spoiler tags, if necessary), and keep the GIFs relatively work-safe.

Your entertainment for today. . .something more on the fun side.

With that, the beer light is on and the bar is open for this Tuesday, ladies and gentlemen. Enjoy the rest of your day!
