Remember jack patera not allowing water breaks during training camp in Cheney

That kind of stuff could get you arrested these days lol.

We are now at the complete opposite end of the spectrum of this with current NFL policies. People forget there is a happy medium.

Schroeder was not the only player to suffer. Each day, exhausted players were drug by their heels off the practice field. Some could barely walk due to the "blind wobbles." At the end of practice, they would rush into the shower room and gulp water from the faucets. Then they would fall to the ground and flop like boat-bound marlin on the floor as their leg muscles cinched up into steely balls. You could hear their painful howls from the cramping all the way down to the South Llano River, more than a football field away, where some of the exhausted boys waded into the cool river in full uniform. One day, fullback Jack Pardee lost twenty pounds in a single practice.

Was gonna say, Gatorade threw a wrench in that attitude

Was gonna say, Gatorade threw a wrench in that attitude

I shot hoops at the school playground by myself for a little over a half hour yesterday in only low 80s heat with no water and suffered a bit. 110 degrees for four hours of football practice. Jesus f-ing Christ, what was he thinking.

Assume it goes back to how things were when they played. Noll and Patera played in the 50s back when players weren't sissies. Interesting, Patera was drafted as a guard but played middle linebacker, Noll was drafted as a linebacker but played guard

[D-train]

Noll was the 240th pick of the 1953 draft. 20th round. Imagine the conversation about who the Browns should take with that pick.

Scout: "See I hear there is this kid playing Linebacker for Dayton so we won't even have to pay airfare to get him here. Just $11 for bus fare. AND he weighs 220lbs so he can play guard and we need guards."

Head Coach: "Sounds great, let's do it"

[Donn Beach]

Converting a middle linebacker to offensive guard seems pretty wild

CringeRuss - wearing a shirt with "Wilson" on it - no, not Wilson sports. Dude never stops shilling.
"The biggest risk of all is not taking one" Really? Really? The cringe is strong with this one.
"Use the Cringe, Russ. Use the cringe..."

Also, George Lucas needing a Manssiere - or a Bro. Surprised Wilson ain't shilling one.

[D-train]

So that is Lucas' wife. I guess he and RW have some things in common. Both nerdy white guys married to a black chick. LOL
