Kamar Jorden Prepares for Minnesota Vikings Training Camp

Moments after the 2012 NFL draft concluded, Wide Receiver Kamar Jorden received a phone call from the Minnesota Vikings. The Vikings offered the Philadelphia local a contract, and chance to play for their ball club.

Following a rookie camp, and mini camp, KJ is now beginning Training Camp for the upcoming NFL Season. Rookie hazing may be in his near future, but hopefully bright spots in the preseason are sure to follow.

Jorden has been catching the eyes of local reporters in the Minnesota area, and has made appearances in articles on the teams official web blog.

Zoom Kobe VII "Gold Medal"

Sometimes small tweaks can make a major difference. That seems to be the stand Nike is taking with the Kobe 7 "gold medal" colorway. The "USA" colorway, which Kobe has been wearing in all the Team USA exhibition games, has added some minor changes to the version recently released.

The Swoosh has been changed to gold, and the heel cup has been changed to a Gold/Obsidian gradient design. Also the outsole is now red, instead of white.

This updated version is expected to be worn by the Black Mamba when (if) the USA team advances to the gold medal game. This shows major confidence in TEAM USA by Nike.

No release date is scheduled, stay tunes with us, as we will give the info when we receive it.
