and last year we had every indidcation that fat al was working harder than ever to get in shape and we saw how that worked out. this isn't much of an issue but trent williams is one of the biggest names on the team and one of the most important positions. if this was his 3rd or 4th year i would feel a lot different. and i agree we are making a mountain out of a mole hill, but an appearance from tw at anyone of these pratices would have been nice.
how is beck wanting to be the starter some great story line? it's hard to be positive when your team isn't very good but i would say the overall tone on the warpath is a lot more positive than you make it out to be.
I didn't mean here, I mean in the local and national media. We're not very good, okay, sure, but the fact is, through the three minicamps the Redskins have had, they've had some of the highest turnout, they seem to the most organized (running 7-on-7 and 11-on-11 while other teams are just running routes), our vets are teaching our rookies...there's a lot of positive stuff to say.
And I was saying that for about two month "Beck wants to be the starter" was a big story that everyone could talk about/pick on, but now that story has run out of steam.
So the local media has to latch on to something to run with for another couple weeks, and Trent not showing up is the next "thing". I would've liked for Trent to show up, just to see the guy, but again, I'd rather have him healthy going into training camp then risk him getting knicked up/hurt in unofficial practices.
It's not really a story, and it's just Kory not understanding that anything you say can and will be used against you in the DMV. And I like that Clint Oldenberg and Selvish Capers can get some more practice reps without him here, since we're going to need another swing tackle if Heyer doesn't come back.
