Thanks Barry. Please come back and give us some juicy tidbits when camp gets going.

Don't worry, I'll be out at Rams Park in that summer heat seeing what I can see, and getting interviews for my articles !!! Still haven't heard from my pal about a Baltimore trip yet for the Ravens game, but I'll let ya know on that as well !

My impressions from mini camp were mainly that Drew Bennett and Randy McMichael are going to be a huge help in the red zone, and I hope to see more of that in camp !!!!!!

Hey Barry, question for you: Any idea why the name of the training camp was changed from Rams Park to Russell Training Center? (I highly doubt that it was named after Fred Russell!!)

WHAT SAY YE?

I'm just guessing but maybe the Russell Athletic company bought the rights to name it that?

ramsbruce is right. It's all about the cash. Part of that deal was a one night naming of the Ed Jones Dome into the Russell Athletics dome on some Monday Night Game.
