Minnesota Viking wide receiver Sidney Rice has undergone hip surgery and will miss the first half of the season. The news is disappointing to Minnesota Vikings fans as Rice suffered the injury in the playoffs last season. After seeing specialists this offseason, it seems odd that Rice waited eight months to have the surgery instead of having it earlier.Either way, it is a significant blow to the team. Rice had a breakout season last year, earning a Pro Bowl birth and notching 1,300 receiving yards. After Percy Harvin's migraines, we can only hope Rice comes back strong after the surgery. Bernard Berrian and Visanthe Shiancoe will have to be counted on (as well as newly signed Javon Walker).
