Re: Mike McCarthy, Forrest Gregg, Vince Lombardi

Anyone else think McCarthy should have the players practicing outdoors more late in the season?

No. I don't want my players facing any unnecessary risk of injury or illness simply because it's freezing cold or extraordinarily windy or rainy or the fog is too dense while they practice. What are the odds the opponent is practicing outside in these same elements? Probably next to zero. If a team has an indoor practice facility they normally use it when the weather gets shitty.

Why should Green Bay be any different?

1) To take advantage of the elements one must be more experienced in them.

2) To be more experienced in the conditions, the team has to spend more time participating in the conditions.

3) Surrendering an easily gained advantage is foolish.

4) How would the team get more hurt if they learn how to handle the conditions? Inexperience is more dangerous than knowing what to do.

5) Practicing indoors on field turf is bad preparation for winter games.

HAVE YOU SEEN NEXT SEASONS SCHEDULE?? THERE WILL BE AN ABUNDANCE OF COLD OUTDOOR GAMES!!
