German NFL player takes an hour’s walk to Vikings practice

German NFL player takes an hour’s walk to Vikings practice

Even though the Vikings parking lot is filled with plenty of nice vehicles, the NFL Player Moritz Boehringer’s vehicle is not among them. Moritz Boehringer apparently does not own a vehicle and therefore he walks to his training ground every day. . This is not because he cannot afford one but the German wide receiver has decided he does not require one. The player walks to Vikings practice facility every day. Moritz Boehringer is an NFL player who lives three miles away from the practice set up thus he covers approximately six miles every day. This has been equated to walking across 105 football fields daily. He therefore walks for one hour daily; however his girlfriend thinks he is crazy. He made this confession in an interview with Transferwise where he mentioned that his girlfriend did not understand why he chose to walk to work.

He gave his reasons for not owning a car as the mere fact that he wants to save up money. He will not however be able to enjoy his walks in the winter in Minnesota. His idea of saving money is pretty logical since his rookie contract with the Vikings is only $150,000 in guaranteed amount. Having a car would mean sacrificing a third of that amount. However, Boehringer is lucky since his walk is to be lessened since the Vikings are taking up training at a camp in Mankato. This means that he will only have to walk from m his dormitory to the the practice field which is a shorter distance. When the camp is over the NFL Player will go back to walking to the Vikings facility unless he buys a vehicle.

The interview with Boehringer is available online.

Michael Vick on dominating too much

Michael Vick on dominating too much

The American football quarterback, Michael Dwayne Vick is quoted saying that he was ‘dominating too much’. Earlier this week, Michael Vick said that he actually felt bad for his opponents then. He is well known as the ‘dual-threat quarterback’. He might not have done so well at the NFL but when he did, he sent chills down the NFL defenders spines.

This interview was held on phone on the ‘Dan Patrick Show’. He was asked plenty of questions during this interview regarding his past, his present and his future plans. On whether he felt bad for opponents he might have flustered during any some games, Vick recollected that it wasn’t always the prettiest of situations especially since some players would tear their ACLs and or sprain their ankles. Vick further admitted that he felt like there were times he was dominating too much.

It’s not over for Vick after 13 years. He looks forward to getting another chance as he feels ready to jump right back. Unfortunately, the two years he spent out the league will remain as stamp on his record. He served a prison sentence for facilitating and funding a dog fighting ring on his property and was also on suspension.

The Steelers had the 36 year old on last season on a one year contract. Vick has previously played for the Falcons, Philadelphia Eagles and New York Jets. Given his record, it would be difficult to get NFL teams reach out to him and also factoring competition from new talent and younger players. However, he holds the record for the fastest quarterback ever at his pro day. He aspires to play more games in the future and hopes that he will be given the chance to do what he hasn’t done yet and prove that he still got some game left in him.

Michael Vick acknowledges Peyton Manning, Tom Brady, Aaron Rodgers and Drew Brees as some of the best quarterbacks he ever faced. On the quarterbacks that could presently outrun him, he mentioned Colin Kaepernick and Russell Wilson.
