Practice went much better today for me individually as well as the team. My legs felt much more energetic in the morning practice. It still felt like it was a hundred and ten degrees outside though. For some reason I decided to run the first gaser ten seconds faster then I normally do. This was very stupid because the second and third one were much harder then they should be.

All three of our running backs ( Nick Burney , Cornelius Birgs, Chris Barclay) looked very good this morning. The receivers also seem to have made a big improvement. In the afternoon during team pass I don't think one ball was dropped. I think we should have one of the better defenses in the league this year. The entire secondary returns, and the defensive line should rank at the top of the conference. We lost two linebackers from last year, but I think the two players that replace them (Brad White and Jamie Scott or Jamaal Argrow) are better. Tomorrow we have a scrimmage.
