Buftex Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 Per Vtext: Derek Session. PTR Great way to celebrate Mick Jaggers 69th birthdaY! Seriously, I think I might try to make it up for training camp. The schedule makers were not kind to out of town Bills fans, like myself, who can normally only make it up for one game a season...no Thanksgivig or Christmas weekend games. Used to go to training camp when I was a kid, but hadn't been for many, many years...until the first practice of the 2007 season...it was awesome! I had a blast. Got my program autographed by the entire Bills rookie class (minus Marshawn who missed that first practice, as a last minute signing), as well as bunch of vets...Marv was perched up in the stands, looking on...it was really fun. Actually a bit more fun than some of the games I have gone to in the last decade! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lightweight. You could make training camp in 5. PTR Edited May 30, 2012 by PromoTheRobot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HurlyBurly51 Posted May 31, 2012 Share Posted May 31, 2012 I was a little surprised to see training camp has a total of only 15 practices. My perception historically was that TC was a little longer and tougher than that. No big deal, as long as they're ready come opening day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My perception historically was that TC was a little longer and tougher than that. No big deal, as long as they're ready come opening day. If only tickets prices league-wide were reduced as much as OTAs, Training Camp, during season practices due to NFLPA. Next they will want to replace games with Madden versions.

JÂy RÛßeÒ Posted May 31, 2012 Share Posted May 31, 2012 (edited) Interesting that there are no morning sessions, or two-a-days. Welcome to the new CBA. What I find interesting is that the last practice is a night session. Usually there's a mad dash for the Thruway but maybe not after practice ends at 9...

Yes I realize that, I just can't remember any year since camp was moved to SJF, that there wasn't a some days with morning/afternoon sessions. Some people would go to the morning sessions to avoid the heat at the afternoon sessions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
