Add the Minnesota Vikings to the list of NFL teams that won't be appearing on HBO's "Hard Knocks" during training camp this summer. An NFL source said that for the second consecutive year interest was expressed in having the Vikings be part of a show that has become very popular but is seen as being far too intrusive by many organizations. "Hard Knocks" is a multi-show series that not only features up-close looks at training camp practices but also takes viewers behind the scenes, showing team meetings and even players being cut. With a roster filled with newcomers and a rebuilding project that already is tough enough, it's not surprising the Vikings have no interest in adding a potential distraction. Source: ESPN 1500
i think everyone but jacksonville has turned down Hard Knocks and Hard Knocks has ignored Jacksonville
