It's finally here, the fun stuff starts soon. It marks the beginning of the football season for the diehards - the brutality that is training camp. Players hate it after a week or so, fans sit in 90 degree weather to watch drills and after a while can't wait for it to end and the 1st preseason game to roll around. But football has gotten so big that training camp is an entity unto itself. So of course we need a Training Camp Eternal thread, one place to have one prolonged discussion about training camp stuff since it's hard to keep track of all the fast moving front page storylines. Hopefully this will add a little continuity to the discussion.

Now for the filler...

If you've been to training camp in the past, share your most memorable experience. Mine was getting a thumbs up from Big Red when I was at TC circa 2003, BT (before TO). I fell in love with Coach Reid right then, I've since fallen out of love, but that's another story. But feel free to share any memories that you have of TC if you've have had the chance to make it. And if you haven't made it yet, what are you waiting for, come see your favorite players up close and personal, buy some Eagles gear, get an autograph or two and enjoy the company of fellow Eagles fans.

I love the videos posted on the Eagles website, they already have new one on one interviews with the rookies posted, so for those who don't get a chance to go on PE.com to check them out, here's the link.

Here's the new Blog by Sheil Kapadia and Tim McManus - Birds 24/7 All Eagles, All the Time - filled with great Eagles stuff.
