Vikings tailback Adrian Peterson will take the next step today in his recovery from a right knee injury. Speaking after the Vikings' 29-22 victory over Oakland, Peterson said he will begin running on an underwater treadmill this morning....

At least six former Vikings teammates hugged Oakland quarterback Daunte Culpepper at midfield before Vikings coach Brad Childress made his way over for quick hug and a brief exchange.

Hate all you want, that was a class move.

This is the first time Winfield has been bothered a hamstring injury in his nine-year NFL career.

Hammy's and groin injuries sure seem to linger sometimes.
Smart to keep him out the second half.
Gonna need him against the Giants.

I am gonna google and see if I can find one of those waterproof treadmills.
Sure hope he doesn't get electro-shock therapy.

Purple Jesus does not run on water.
He runs on land.
And turf.
And anywhere that a green field can be found with white painted lines every 10 yards.

It would be huge if AD can play against the Giants... while I don't want him rushed back at the expense of his health, this is a big game.
We've had an up and down season (more downs then ups) but a win against the Giants would give us a shot at a WC.
To make the playoffs we need to finish 9 and 7 and probably have beaten the Lions and Giants.

I hope he can breathe under there.

As opposed to his usual walking on water.

What if he plays at Boise State?
Or does that fall under turf?
