VABills Posted May 27, 2005 Share Posted May 27, 2005 He's doing the smart thing and not risking an injury that would jeopardise a trade. Your TH bashing is getting really old. 346272[/snapback] Where did I bash there? I just repeated what the hot pocket crowd around here has been saying.

MarkyMannn Posted May 27, 2005 Share Posted May 27, 2005 willis was playing madden with roscoe out in their orchard park crib, then they hit the mall and bought some ben wallace #4 jerseys and matching hats then went to the olive garden for pasta and salad, then smoked some weed and then called over some bitches. 346077[/snapback] Geez, I call it a good day if I just get to Olive Garden. I gotta raise my expectations a little............... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BF_in_Indiana Posted May 27, 2005 Share Posted May 27, 2005 OK so last year and in 2003 everyone shows up just like the Pats and we finish 6-10 and 9-7. This year we have guys not showing up and we should all be concerned about it? These things aren't that important to veteran players. Rookies need them but the vets do not.

I'd think McGahee wouldn't want to wait until training camp to get used to a new starting QB and LT (whoever that turns out to be). But then, I've been wrong before.....

Buftex Posted May 27, 2005 Share Posted May 27, 2005 And after seeing film of him recently, I fail to see any " fat " in the mid-section. He looks completely different from last season. Far better shape. 346162[/snapback] Yeah, I know. I have seen him here on the UT campus a few times, he looks very fit for a guy his size. I was being sarcastic. Personally, I don't think Mike Williams has been near the bust that some here insist that he is/will be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But then, I've been wrong before..... 346658[/snapback] I just don't see it as being that big of a deal Lori. Training Camp is where things really get fine tuned. The mini camps in May and June basically consist of flag football type play. Willis knows the playbook, and that's the main thing they work on durring mini camp. Just doesn't seem like too big of a deal to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That may be a dangerous assumption. Besides - we ragged on Travis for missing OTAs last year, and I'm an equal-opportunity basher... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do I think it would be beneficial for Willis to show up? Of course. Will it make or break our season? I don't believe so. So based on those two things I really don't think it's too big of a deal. Not one to jump overboard about anyways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrDawkinstein Posted May 28, 2005 Share Posted May 28, 2005 if there are new plays, willis already has copies of them. and in these OTAs, they only run very few different plays. theyre not out there calling the whole playbook. theyre looking at rookies and fringe players technique, where they have to work, etc. id almost rather have him down there where he's happy, working out and not risking injury making a stupid cut in an OTA EDIT: thanks for the welcome, glad to be here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
