Is the first Training Camp practice.

I'm going to try to be there the first two days (Saterday and Sunday). I'm going to try to get to 5 - 7 total.

I'm thinking about focusing on the interior O-line and D-line. I'll report who beats who in one on one's, I'll report who disrupts runs or passes in 11 on 11's. I'll report which O-lineman is getting beat most consistantly. I'll report which D-lineman seem to be getting beaten consistantly.

It's just too hard to get a good read for the whole team without taping the practices and focusing seperately on each area. I could just sparatically view all areas of the team but I don't think the sample is big enough to really make judgements. Because I have to sort of zone in on one group, I'm choosing the interior lines becuase I think the O-line is going to be the group that makes or breaks the offense and I also want to see how Harrell looks compared to the other good DT's we have. It's easy to judge a player when you can directly compare him to other NFL guys that you know are good. For example, last year I saw that Jennings compared favorably to Driver and I thought early in the off season that he would be good. If Harrell compares favorably to Williams and Picket it will be a similar sign.

I also noticed that Kampman was beating Tausch quite a bit last year. I didn't really mention it on here becuase I didn't know if my eyes were decieving me. I sort of assumed I was just catching Tauscher on bad days. Turns out Kamp was a probowler and it was early signs of thigns to come.

With that in mind, I'm going to do my best just to report what I see instead of reporting what I think I should be seeing or what I want to see. Anyway, this is what is coming up. If anyone has any suggestions, I'm open to making some adjustments. I think it would be cool if someone here goes and focuses on QB's/WR's. We could dump our info to an editor here and they could put it all together for a pretty thorough camp review.

I will try to get to a few, but I hate the crowds associated with training camp. Freaken tourists... don't they know that I want that view of Brett all to myself? :hrt:

I would def try to catch this practice though, July 31 at the old city stadium.

While I look forward to the reports from you fellow Rats, I can't hide my utter jealousy for not being able to do the same!

Damnit! Damnit! Damnit! :beat:

Al Gore's memo was very clear on this. It might be inconvenient, but it is true.

It was listed on the same schedule as that NFL Rookie function that Jackson had to attend instead of mini-camp.

Post a reminder a week before you are going; it would be cool to meet. You can wear a TT shirt and I'll wear a turtle shirt so we are easy to recognize :lol:

The RBs and the PKs are the two battles I am most interested in. Wish I could be there..... :(

Great South Park reference. That one made me laugh pretty hard. Remember...only fart occasionally.
