Adrian Peterson says "boring" offseason work could lead to retirement

Fox Sports Rádio 07/06/16 Luxemburgo e Mano Demitidos do Futebol Chines

Minnesota Vikings running back Adrian Peterson is entering his 10th season in the NFL, so he"s become familiar with the ins and outs of the offseason grind. That doesn"t mean he"s a fan of it, though. In fact, he gets bored of going through drills, meetings and practices during OTAs and training camp.

He knows he has several good years ahead of him, but determining just how many will come down to his ability to get through the offseason year after year.

"That"s it," Peterson told ESPN. "Training camp, going through the grind, OTAs and all that -- that will definitely be the deciding factor. Physically, body-wise, I"ll be good. It"s just mentally -- like with OTAs, I"m out there practicing, I"m going, I"m putting in work. But it"s so repetitive that it"s more suited toward the young guys and getting them into the system. It gets kind of boring."

At 31 years old and having gone through the process nine-plus times already -- especially as a running back -- it"s easy to see why Peterson might be tired of doing drills and attending meetings. And it"s particularly noteworthy because of the fact that he had his best season ever following an offseason where he did very little work while recovering from a torn ACL. He"d much rather work out on his own than go through practices on a daily basis.

"Think about this: The 2012 season, I didn"t do any training camp. But I was over there on the side, working out. You get that extra month of working out? Come on, man," he said. "I would much rather not participate in training camp and work out, just to have more of an edge. Training camp, you"re going out there, you"re playing football, you"re going to lift, and after that, you don"t want to do anything. You"re tired, from meetings and all that."

Peterson is the type of veteran and athlete that doesn"t necessarily need to participate fully in each day"s practice. He"s arguably the best running back in the league and has been for some time despite being forced to come back from a torn ACL. Don"t be surprised if he"s excused from some team activities in training camp next month.

NBA Trade Rumors: Boston Celtics In Discussions For The Bucks" Khris Middleton

Check Up: NBA Trade Rumors! Ft. Fung Bros

Either the Boston Celtics really want to trade the third overall pick of the NBA Draft, or they just want a star player. The Celtics are shopping their top draft choice to several teams. The Milwaukee Bucks are the latest club, according to reports.

According to NESN, the Celtics are in discussions with the Milwaukee Bucks to trade for swingman Khris Middleton. The Celtics are using the No. 3 pick as a lure to try and get a deal done. Khris Middleton is the next name being linked to the Celtics No. 3 pick. With how fast the NBA trade rumors are coming out, it is certain that he will not be the last player mentioned with the Celtics.

The list of players the Celtics have rumored interest in trading for includes Jimmy Butler, Jahlil Okafor and Nerlens Noel, among others. It is believed that by adding one of those players in a trade, the Celtics will be inserted as one of the Eastern Conference favorites. For the Celtics to add a star player or someone on the verge to team with their solid young nucleus has been on the Celtics minds for months. It is evident by how frequently they have been named in the NBA trade rumors which have only escalated since Game 7 of the NBA Finals was over.

What is also clear is the fact that the Celtics are not satisfied with their options for the third overall pick. There are players who can help the Celtics at No. 3, but the interest level does not seem mutual. That has led to the constant trade rumors for the Celtics draft pick.

The Celtics reportedly have talked with the Bucks about a trade for Khris Middleton. https://t.co/A44T6MFqHf pic.twitter.com/jSdOoUSUTp

NESN (@NESN) June 21, 2016

With all-star point guard Isaiah Thomas in place for the Celtics, there is little to no need for Providence guard Kris Dunn. As for Dragan Bender, it may take years for him to develop. The Celtics can ill-afford a developmental player at this stage. It is possible that the Celtics would be better off keeping the No. 3 pick and drafting Kris Dunn. If the Celtics are serious about making a real run in the East, they must trade the pick for Jimmy Butler, Nerlens Noel, Jahlil Okafor, or Khris Middleton.

If it is true that the Celtics are kicking the tires on the idea of bringing in Khris Middleton from the Bucks, it means that they are serious.

Khris Middleton is a really good player. Because he plays for the Milwaukee Bucks, it is difficult to realize it. His averages of 18.2 points, 4.2 assists, and 3.8 rebounds per game during the season is not enough to influence anyone. If not, Middletons advance statistics of.560 true shooting percentage and 6.1 total win shares should do the trick.

Khris Middleton had a usage rate of 23.0.

In comparison, the New Yorks Knicks Carmelo Anthony had a true shooting percentage of.530, with a 6.4 win share on a 29.7 usage rate.

The numbers are very similar with the exception of the overall usage rating. Another difference is their points per 36 minutes. Middleton is set at 18.1, while Anthony was 22.4. Carmelo Anthony is the closest comparison to Khris Middleton based on body type and style of play. If the Celtics were to add someone with the type of production that Middleton brings it would be a huge haul. And, he would come to the Celtics at a much lesser price.

Should Celtics Trade No. 3 Pick For Khris Middleton? VIDEO: https://t.co/feQBcHFcNF via @YouTube

If the Celtics acquired Middleton, they inherit a modest $15.2 million contract. Another plus is he would only be 25 years-old at the start of the regular season.

Would Khris Middleton be enough to get the Boston Celtics over the hump?

Defensively, Middleton has a ways to go. Opponents can drive to the basket on him, using lateral quickness to get there. As long as he would be willing to work at his defense, Khris Middleton would be alright.

At the end of the day, making a deal with the Milwaukee Bucks is a fallback option for the Celtics. Their top choice is the Chicago Bulls Jimmy Butler. According to Bleacher Report, Jimmy Butler remains on the Celtics radar.

Because of this, the Boston Celtics are expected to go all in for Butler. If the Celtics fail to get Jimmy Butler, the Milwaukee Bucks Khris Middleton is not too shabby of an option.

What will the Boston Celtics do with the No. 3 pick?

"Person Of Interest" Ratings Steady In Series Finale, "America"s Got Talent" & "Uncle Buck" Down

Person of Interest Series Finale Trailer (HD)

After five seasons on CBS, Person Of Interest (1.0/3) came to an end last night with the demise of one of its main characters. The finale of the abbreviated 13-episode season dipped 9% among adults 18-49 compared withthe Season 4 ender of May 5 last year which had an original NCIS as a lead-in.

Even with last weeks episoe, last nights result makes the end of Person Of Interest the lowest-rated finale for theJonahNolan-created show though potential adjustments in later numbers could see that change. The all-time high for a PoIfinale was the Season 1 ender with its 2.5/7 at 9 PM on a busy May 17, 2012.

While Person Of Interest was the only original on CBS last night, its Big 4 rivals had fuller slates. The top-rated and, with 11.48 million tuning in, the most-watched show of the night was Americas Got Talent (2.3/9). However, while NBC won Tuesday with a 1.9/7 and 9.10 million viewers, AGT took an 11% demo hit to match a June 7 season low for the Simon Cowell co-judged competition series. Although winning the 10 PM slot over PoI and ABCs To Tell The Truth (1.0/4), which was down two-tenths, AGT lead-out Maya & Marty (1.1/4) also declined from its June 14 show 15% among the 18-49s.

The CWs only original Tuesday was the now-shuttered Containment (0.3/1), which was even with last week. Foxs Hotel h**l (0.8/3) and Coupled (0.5/2) were both down a tenth from their final numbers of June 14. With The Middle (0.8/3) andBlack-ish (0.7/3) encores starting off ABCs night, Uncle Buck (1.0/4) took the biggest fall of Tuesdays primetime with a 33% drop from its debut last week,when the comedy was preceded by the premiere of To Tell The Truth.
