Kickoff
Jul 29, 2008 2008 Training Camp, Babyeating-Sisterfuckers, Kickoff
Novel. Paul Kuharsky is doing a solid job on his AFC South blog for tWWL. See, Matt Mosley, it is possible to talk about more than just the Dallas Cowboys! Anyway, he has this blurb yesterday in his discussion of Texans practice:
Chester Pitts told me Sunday the Texans are doing a better job of using the whole field in the run game, and I could see that is the case. It looks like everyone involved in the run game is making progress with the new zone-blocking scheme, though obviously the offensive line isn’t cut-blocking teammates.
It’s an interesting point and one I hadn’t really considered, I guess. The team was pretty limited in the directions they ran the ball last year, though. Anything wider than off-tackle was seemingly done with a flare pass rather than a run, for example. Assuming ol’ Chester is right, that fact alone could make the running game more effective this year.
Yes, sensei! Sticking with Paul for a second, the Texans are your AFC South leaders. In number of coaches, that is. I’m not sure what to make of this. On the one hand, it’s probably good for the younger players to have more face time with the staff, both for learning purposes and for better evaluation when it comes time to cut people. On the other, don’t you wonder if some of that is just trying to cover for weaker coaches without firing them? I’m looking at you, Ray Rhodes and Richard Smith.
Shirts, unfortunately, not optional. A guide for people planning on attending Titans practice. There’s a warning at the end: You’ll hear plenty of salty language during practice. I’m not sure that prepares a fan for the shock of hearing VY tell LenDale how much he wants to suck the sweat from the fat man’s titties, but maybe that’s just me.
Finally. Caption away, peoples!

Wow, looks like the Titans put all their winners up for the autograph session. I don’t know if I’d be more excited about Enoka Lucas or Ulrich Winkler. I guess Enoka’s a former Texan, so he’s got that going for him.

Dunta Robinson practices his new trick of baiting opposing QBs to actually try to throw the ball his direction.

“Despite being severely near-sighted, Dunta Robinson is one of the league’s premier cornerbacks…”

Tired of reporters questions, Dunta wore a sign taped to his head Tuesday reading “Yes, my hamstring really did come off the bone. Yes, it hurt like hell. And yes, I’ll be back midseason at 100%.”

Okay, if Travis is playing the snare drum and Petey is blowing on that damn flute, all I have to do is walk on my crutches with this bandage on my head? What the hell are we re-enacting again?

Dunta doesn’t think very highly of his new Trapper Keeper helmet.

@Matt: It’s all those years on the “short bus” that made Stacy so frickin’ clever. He’s a deserving wiener…I mean winner.
