Yeah. I think it is pretty great to have a chance to see that stuff. Is this new or did they have the same sort of coverage last year?

They showed a few videos last year of camp but it wasn’t until they were in the stadium. I really enjoy this type of stuff.

Both of my grandfathers fought in that war. You watch your mouth.

One of my grandfathers fought in WW1. The other went to prison for running moonshine, or home brew as we call it around here.

Went to AZ Cardinals training camp today. Free parking, free admission, sitting in air conditioning all day, not bad.

Some observations:
*Today was Jonathan Cooper's first day (maybe second, he just signed) and he was destroying people in drills. He was at Left Guard with the 1st team.
*I'm so jealous of their defensive line..Calais Campbell, Darnell Dockett, even Dan Williams. If John Abraham gives them anything at rush end/outside linebacker that could be a very good unit.
* Speaking of jealousy, they have so much more depth than us. This is the Cardinals, the longtime laughingstock of the league. They have a really good collection of youth and veterans. Still, in their division, they are playing for 3rd. I think they would actually contend in the NFC East.

Their third team safety was Curtis Taylor (and he was out there making plays). For those of you who don't know who Curtis Taylor is, he is the guy who kept our 2nd team safety Danny McCray on the bench for four years at LSU. Guys in their Secondary are Patrick Peterson, Antoine Cason, Rashad Johnson, Yeremiah Bell, Honey Badger, Javier Arenas, Jerrod Powers, Jamal Fleming, Curtis Taylor, and Tony Jefferson.

*Carson Palmer looked sharp. His weapons all looked good. Fitzgerald of course but was really impressed with Michael Floyd and Tight End Rob Housler. They have a stable of runningbacks in Mendenhall, Andre Ellington, and Stepfan Taylor (plus Ryan Williams if he can get healthy).

* Patrick Peterson is a freak of nature.

They do. Wish it wasn't true. Their overall second team has more talent than ours.

We have Alex Albright, they have Alex Okafor.

We have Danny McCray, they have Honey Badger.

Their five guards are Jonathan Cooper, Daryn Colledge, Senio Kelemete, Chil Rachal, and Earl Wartford. Our five guards are Nate Livings, Mackenzy Bernadeau, Ronald Leary, David Arkin, and Kevin Kowalski.

We sign guys like Demetress Bell and George Selvie, they went out and signed Eric Winston and John Abraham.

I'd say we have them beat at 2nd team QB and 2nd team TE.

Leary is going to win a starting job. Book it.

I don't know if he's any good or not. Just telling y'all he will start.

#2 WR and #3 WR
And Pass rusher
And CB
And LB
And OT


Relax bro. You're going a bit overboard

2nd team bro. Also, I'm not sure #2 WR anymore. An up and coming Floyd vs an almost never healthy, overpaid Miles Austin?

Up and coming from what? Lets see Floyd do something first.

And we are probably better second team at all of those positions too

@SullyBaldHead: At this point, I would be surprised if Ronald Leary wasn't one of the two starting guards for the season opener. Call it a hunch.

These guys keep tweeting the same things I'm saying

Leary has become the latest "player Cowboy fans believe in despite having done nothing to earn that hope". A few years ago it was Bill Nagy.

I'd like to see him actually prove it. He went undrafted despite Jerry's ridiculously high praise. He was cut and available on the practice squad for 10 plus weeks last year.

We'll see I guess.

Guarantee we win a lot more games than they do

He went undrafted because a lot of teams feared his knee condition, not because of a lack of talent.
