this is what gets me, as a fan/teammate why would you get excited about this? sure you might say "wow that was an amazing hit" but THAT WAS HIS TEAMMATE he...
Yes, while injury is at risk, this kind of drill is tailored to seperate the men from the boys. In addition, Barber is sending a message to the team and sets a...
Because training camp is all about competition. I saw the hit, and it was outstanding. Barber deserved a standing ovation. He nearly pancaked Smith on 1:1...
oh ok my bad...i guess if romo gets pancaked by Ware then it's all part of the process? *sarcasm* don't try to fill me full of that b.s., barber is the...
well, i agree with you for the most part, but to me, Barber seems like one of those athletes that only has one gear and does everything all out, no matter the...
ok, yes. lets flip the situation a bit as you suggested, what if barber, all pro, goes half ass in the drill and gets absolutely smoked by a scrub trying to...
those entirely different circumstances seeing as neither guy can potentially hurt their teammate by playing all out no matter the circumstances again it's...
oh please, don't twist my words....i never said he could half ass it i said he's not out their competing for a job. of course if you were to actually use...
well whats the point of running the drill in the first place if your going to have guys half-ass thru it. This is football and its a contact sport, so guys...
i don't believe the guy ever complained...i'm making the complaint. I mean by your thought process if Ware completely obliterated Romo in the pocket it would...
<and for the record you practice to improve your weaknesses, not showcase your talents (assuming we're talking about players who've made the team regardless).>...
Hey, im just excited that we've got someone like that willing to protect Romo from lets say a Jason Taylor pancake!! In addition, couldn't Marion be working...
Just thought I would mention the young lb knocked MB3 on his tail the first time around. Sounds like MB3 wanted to set the record straight. Story is on...
Sorry, but there is no classic case as you described. The practice was done in full pads. The drill was full contact for the players involved. It was a blitz...
Bingo. Got that right. The drill was designed for players to hit each other hard. Will they repeat the drill in another practice? Obviously yes. ... butt ... ...
Man I thought we were going through pansy talk. If some of the kids I coached went half assed through drills they would have to do some running after ...
I called this when they first hired Wade. I suspect that for once, I was right. ... From: Dan To: dallascowboyfanclub@yahoogroups.com Sent: Friday, July 25,...
not a chance. can never be THAT lucky two years in a row. ... From: William To: DCFC Sent: Saturday, July 26, 2008 11:14 AM Subject: [Dallas Cowboy Fanclub]...
I would be more worried if there wasn't a skirmish. *Al Bundy imitation* Back when I played high school football, we always had at least two of these in the...
I would actually love to play again but I just don't think I will have time again this year. I felt bad not being able to devote enough time last year. ... ...
my take on this is that you play how you practice. I was one of those guys that hated knowing the guy across from me in football practice, but I got over it...
thank you for agreeing to my point that there are double standards and what if it were owens? what if it were witten? what if it were barber getting laid out...
which skill set would that be? the one that made him a pro bowl running back? and aren't there drills for high impact collisions that don't require a test...
now the story twists a bit and i can a reason as to why marion wanted to prove a point. ... the first time around. Sounds like MB3 wanted to set the record ...
welcome to the show? please, i laugh at your assertion that it's any kind of show blitzing some young, less talented, inexperienced kid up the middle and...
oh please, would you idiots stop twisting my words....i've read countless articles of young rookies getting their asses chewed for nearly killing a teamamate...
Blitzing him up the middle? Did you even read what occurred? They were performing a 1:1 drill. The LB tries to get past the RB/FB. The RB/FB tries to block the...
LOL. He wasn't proving any point. He was performing as instructed. ... wanted ... Romo ... back ... There's ... record ... practice ... and ... his ... he ... ...
