    Because of the HOF game I was expecting more practices. Last year we went to camp July 25. This year with the HOF game, it's the same day. Plus since we start on Thursday night, we will need to start prepping for the first game sooner. Not only are we not getting more time to teach young guys and sort out who is starting, we have less time. Huh?

    I've only watched the HOF game sparingly over the years. My guess is they plays on both Offense and Defense are pretty vanilla.

    Camp actually lasts a week longer, last year the last day was like Aug 14-15th or something and this year its the 22nd.

    At most, Ben will play one series, the rest of the starters will play only half of the 1st quarter, I want to see how the rookies FAs and the other 3 QBs perform, yeah it will be a total vanilla game by both teams, they always are....

    Upon further review, I finally realized we get 1 extra game. I have to think one game is a better evaluation of talent than say 6-8 practices.

    The Steelers resigned Lamar Woodley? Did I miss something?
