Hey kids... while I can't commit to do it every night, here's a tidbit from this evening.

www.patriotscampreports.com Mrs B’s TC Report 7/30 PM

Last year someone here pulled my feed and it auto-posted. Is it possible to do it again? I'll try to do as many as I can but that will make my life a bit easier. Thanks!

Go Pats!!

Wherever you are in your life, I hope that all is/will be well for you, and thanks for whatever updates you give. Enjoy your summer.

As usual Mrs B points out something that wasn't picked up by the media.

Quote:

Camp followed with the same routine as usual with periods and various positional drills, etc. Something new this year was the presence of the jugs machine for KO drills. Perhaps saving Gostkowski’s leg and/or insuring that the ball went to a specific spot each time.

It was hard not to notice the machine but I had the same thought as Mrs B that this was about location and not neccesarily just saving Gostkowski's leg.

and she wasn't even at the early practice to notice this (shame on the media). When Gostkowski was kicking off earlier there were a few kicks that went to the back of the endzone and would have been touchbacks the returners instead of going to the back of the endzone to grab a ball they shouldn't bring out just ran up and were tossed a ball by Fears. I am guessing the Jugs machine was there in part to have the returners actually catch the ball out of the air as well as save the leg.

Oh yeah and I think I can speak for the group when I say we will all be happy to get whatever you give us if it is once a week, more, or less - thanks.

Karen and SBB, Thanks for getting you minds together on the KO.

Can't recall whose blog it was, but one of the media mentioned it. Said was likely to save ghosts leg.

A couple of them chimed in on that, but BF1/SBB's analysis makes more sense when you think about where Gost puts the ball on KO's and what the rest of the KR/KO units need to work on.
