    Thank you Swede. You also provided an important service to the female and gay Packer posters here, delineating who the hot Packer players are.

    More importantly - from my perspective - you provided more detail and insight than all the Packer reporters put together. So thank you.

    Looks like Sam Shields ain't gonna make the cut given his hands of steel. But quinn Porter ... hmmm. Maybe he'll beat out Starks and Lumpkinn esp. if Starks can't get on the field.
    Thank you. I'm no Laurie Nickels, though. If I were you'd know Mike Neal's favorite color by now.

    Honestly, I am impressed by how gbpackerfan came at us with instantaneous information. 1:1 drills happen rat-a-tat and you'd better know your players by number and have the skills to input text like a courtroom stenographer in order to keep up with the action the way that gbpf did.

    I was hoping to give a little feel for the pageantry and enthusiasm of Training Camp to the Packerrats who have never been to a practice.

    It was amazing to me to see that the Packers have built this mini-stadium alongside Ray Nitschke Field that holds about 1,500 fans. At least another 500 hung around the fences. You would think the packers would make a lot of money by charging entrance, but apparently if a team were to do this then other teams could pay their five or ten bucks and send their own scouts.

    So they can make this rule that a team caught scouting another team's public practices will get in trouble with the league, but for the life of me I don't know how the team and league can enforce it. Do you think the Patriots would get caught cheating if they simply dressed up a scout in an Aaron Rodgers jersey and had him take notes and pictures?

    Hmmmm. Maybe the Packers tape the crowd as well as the practice looking for Bill Bellicheat plants!

    Anyway any Packer fan who has never been to a training camp practice needs to consider making a trip to Green Bay in August. Fans from all over, and city residents who trek down every day shower those players with love and devotion. I sometimes wonder what the players must think. I imagine it is a complicated and mixed bag of emotions ranging from "This is wonderful. They love me," all the way to "What the hell is wrong with these people? For crying out loud, it's a PRACTICE!"
    I'm a bit of a Packer junkie so I do know all the players, even the new guys, by number. And I can text like a 16 year old girl! ha ha. (Im not proud of that fact though :P )

    But your camp report was very entertaining. That's what is so great about this site, you get so many points of view. I love it! Nice job and thanks again!

            We're revolutionizing the NFL. Every team is going to be keeping 3FB's and 4TE's. It's a trend. You heard it here first.[/quote]

            Yeah the two punter thing never really caught on. It's a copycat league though. One day that's gonna be huge.
