I could see the Jets getting the gig, the media loves Ryan.

The Jets would be a fun team to watch

You know I just love the way that so many of you talk about how Hard Knocks would be a distraction but I've never seen anyone voice displeasure with any local or even national coverage of the team. Do you have a problem with fans at training camp as well?

I would have not one problem with Hard Knocks being about the Redskins. Then I'd have even more Redskins stuff to look at. I can still remember when the Cowboys had it and they showed how at the end of camp Dave Campo had a pig wearing a Redskins jersey playing in the mud while the team laughed and cheered.
That show is very good by the way.

If GMScud invites me to dinner with his fiancee one night, that's not the same as me moving in with Scud and his fiancee for a month

An HBO Drama production would be on a different distraction level than the regular media coverage, that players and coaches accept as part of their normal, daily routine.

You don't think Portis would put on a show for the camera?

Ha, well said.

Re: 2010 HBO Hard Knocks?
 

Filming what is basically a reality show is definitely different than local/national coverage.

The point is that it can still be a distraction, maybe not on the same scale but at the same time it can be but it isn't questioned. You run your practice the way you would anyother time. Are the fans screaming on Sundays distractions ? Hell yeah but you accept it. NFL Films goes out to training camps as well but do we wonder about what those occurences could cause ? No, because we don't know about all of those. If it was that much of a hinderence to a team getting the job done it wouldn't have lasted this long.
