Donovan McNabb and Chris Kluwe negotiated the terms under which the quarterback will be given the No. 5 in a video you can find on the Vikings website (www.vikings.com).

Part of the deal was that McNabb mention the punter's band Tripping Icarus in five news conferences. Well, McNabb satisfied that number and then some on Friday during a conference call with reporters when asked about that part of the agreement.

In fact, McNabb said the band's name six times.

"Me and him have basically been selling some good rock music CDs out of the back of our trunk," McNabb joked. "There's some group that he's a part of, but I've been listening to them for a while. You guys should really check it out. I may be a member of it soon."

McNabb then added: "Tripping Icarus is a nice band that really has soothing music, it really changes the mood of things and it's one that I enjoy. .. You talk about Tripping Icarus. Remember, you listen to Tripping Icarus, ease your mind, in your stores, Tripping Icarus and Triping Icarus."

Kluwe, not surprisingly, had drawn up a contract for his agreement with McNabb and in the video explains that the quarterback couldn't get away with just saying the band's name five times in one news conference. That means McNabb still has four more news conferences to figure out ways to work in Tripping Icarus.

Kluwe now plans to switch to the No. 4, which of course was worn by Brett Favre the past two seasons.

Berrian still around

In what could be a sign of the Vikings' lack of depth at receiver, Bernard Berrian and his $6.3 million salary cap number are still on the roster on the eve of training camp. When asked who would be the team's deep threat at receiver, Frazier said, "We've got Bernard Berrian here for a reason. He's going step up and help us in that area."

Frazier said the Vikings might add a receiver eventually, but that wasn't "our focus right now."

It's believed the Vikings are among three teams in the running for free agent wide receiver James Jones, who also is being pursued by the Jets and Packers. Jones played for Green Bay last season.

Shanahan reflects

McNabb made it clear during his conference call that he wanted to put his one season in Washington in the past and move on. The Redskins went 6-10 and McNabb was benched twice and threw a career-worst 15 interceptions.

Washington coach Mike Shanahan, asked about what happened with McNabb, said:

"We were hoping he would fit into our system. I told Donovan when he came in here, I said: 'Hey, here are the reasons why I think Philly did not sign you' _ they were going to go with (Kevin) Kolb _ 'this is what you're going to have to do to stay on our football team for a number of years. If you do that, I think you've got a chance to go to the Pro Bowl and do the things you've been doing throughout your career.' It didn't work out. …

"I think Donovan has a great future ahead of him -- if he decides to do the little things that he needs to do to get to the next level."

Shanahan declined to go into detail about what those "little things" are."

Still waiting

The Vikings had not signed any of their 10 draft picks as of Friday night, but those deals should start getting done Saturday since there is only so much to go around in the pool of money for draft picks. Quarterback Christian Ponder, the Vikings' first-round pick, is hopeful his deal will be done Saturday.

"I know [vice president of football operations] Rob Brzezinski is working extremely hard on trying to get that done," Frazier said. "But like a lot of teams, we may end up where some guys aren't on time but we're hoping they're all in on time."

See you later
The Vikings have lost three free agents, including defensive end Ray Edwards (Atlanta), quarterback Tarvaris Jackson (Seattle) and wide receiver Sidney Rice (Seattle). Rice was the only one the Vikings wanted back but the Seahawks gave him $18.5 million in guarantees in a five-year deal.

"I'm just happy for Sid and his family," Frazier said. "I'm glad things worked out the way they did for him. We would have loved to have him back, no question about it. But he got an offer that was satisfactory for his family."

On the market

Linebacker Ben Leber remains on the free-agent market and while he hopes to return to the Vikings he certainly has to be drawing interest from other teams. "He's a guy who's done a great job as well," Frazier said when asked about Leber. "I had a chance to speak to Ben on the phone and just explained where we were financially."
