Training Camp Thursday PM Update

Temperature: 70

Humidity: 92 (!)

Attendance: 79

Could this be a sign that we're keeping B.J. Sams?

KR B.J. Sams has worked in individual drills at WR, but got little work in team action. But he caught a nice pass from QB Damon Huard on a third-and-7 play that moved the sticks. Sams beat CB Tyron Brackenridge.

One of the plays of the day:

Bowe tip-toed the back line as he was shoved by a defender, ever mindful of the new revision to the “push rule.” The WR got two feet in bounds and counted the TD for the offense.

The time in River Falls is winding down as Herm reflects on his memories from years past:

“Yeah. It’s a good place. I was here in the beginning when the fire engines were here and they had a parade for us. No more parades. But they’ve upgraded the place. I think they’ve done a good job, especially this year with the dorms we’re staying in. You know (Chiefs groundskeeper) Andre (Bruce) comes up here and does the field, so the field is good. The fans are very good, they’re always glad to see us. We do what we’ve got to do. We don’t need a parade. It was okay the first year, but after 20 years, 19 years, you don’t need a parade.”
