Awesome can't wait for his obvious camp report being obvious.

He needs to stay behind a keyboard and away from the camera thus camp reports are painful and useless.

It was funny because King peacocked himself walking down the fan side to let everyone know he had arrived.

Great thing about camp: 1. awesome for kids 2. cool to be that close to the team running plays, your literally right on the field with them divided only by a yellow rope 3. Milfs, really good selection

Grinding gears about camp: 1. People who go and talk about work with their buddy from work all day not watching the practice. 2. Adults who arrive 45 mins after it begins, stand behind you and complain they cant see

Were you there today? Damnit, I should've checked, I checked out early from work today and took a couple of friends down there to see the afternoon practice. I love that they let the kids walk and talk with the players on the field after practice was over, if nothing else they provided an awesome moment for a kid to meet one of their idols. The thing I didn't like was at the end when RG3 came over to my section to sign autographs, everyone was treating him like a piece of meat, shouting crap trying to get his attention, I mean he's gracious enough to give his time and sign a crapload of autographs, do you really have to treat him like a caged animal too?

I was glad to see that the players spent more time chatting with kids and signing autographs for them than they were for adults, it's pretty embarrassing to see how grown men act around not just an athlete, but a person, of RG3's caliber.

if you saw a guy with no skins attire, faded green hat, white with plaid button up with with jeans on who was watching practice, checking emails, and occassionally using visine it was i. afterwards went to buzz and neds BBQ right by camp and then helped a family jump there car. It was a great day.

Actually it was not half bad.

After last season, RGIII has lost all credibility when it comes to his health. He's shown that he is willing to sacrifice everything(including the future) to get on the field. I don't buy it and chances are Mike doesn't buy it either. Shanny learned the hard way last season.

The flip side to this is that mike doesn't have Roberts knee so he really doesn't know.

That's the gamble to this business especially at QB.

yeah. cooley said that a player gets one chance to have some input on whether he plays injured or not. if you lie and say you are okay then aggravate your injury . . .you never get the benefit of the doubt from the coach again.

im not sure if he was talking specifically about shanny or football coaches in general.

but yeah, rg3 needs to chill.

honestly i wouldnt start him until after the bye. starting the season 2-2 under cousins w a bye week to fully install RG3 sounds best for the long term goal.

rg3's knee is not going to make it past 5 years at this rate and they way he pushes himself ...

Could not disagree more. The docs cleared him to play so put him out there week one. If he gets hurt then so be it. The sky won't fall. Can't baby the guy all season. Last year week one, was AP out there for Minnesota? He had his best year as a pro and he plays RB.

i would give his ligaments and tendons and all that other stuff i know very little about as much time as possible to heal, strengthen and re-attach.

im easily scared. i would be overly cautious.

I wouldn't go as far as to put a time frame on it, but doctors and coaches will be able to tell from his throws and runs when he plants. If he is compensating weight any, than chances are he's not ready. I'll let the medical and coaching staff determine that.

That makes zero sense. Do you feel the same about Orakpo, Merriweather, F. Davis, Garcon and Morgan also? They are all recovering from surgery and have been cleared by doctors for all football activities. By the end of August they will all be practicing fully in all aspects. Should they also be prevented from starting until week 5? He's a football player, not a pre-k teacher. Quit being a Nancy.
