It's easy, and only takes a few moments.Assuming that Shawn failed the conditioning test by being out of condition and was not disabled by injury, read Bruschi's comments on the conditioning test. It's a matter of will and effort.
Tedy Bruschi and Mike Reiss break down the New England Patriots heading into training camp - ESPN BostonTedy: Coach Belichick always told us a story before we'd go on that last break after the mandatory minicamp in June. It was about Bernie Kosar. The conditioning test is a series of sprints, and depending on what position you play, it could be 40, 50 or 60 yards. The quarterbacks had to do 50-yard sprints and he'd talk about how Bernie Kosar was one of the slowest quarterbacks in the history of the NFL, but every year he passed the test. He'd tell us if Bernie Kosar could pass that test, anyone in the room could pass it. You could train specifically to pass the conditioning test by running the test two to three times a week in the last few weeks before training camp.
Crable never displayed the fire in the belly that Harrison has
See his comments regarding training this off season
No sense of urgency
IMHO
It always amazes me the venom that Pats fans show people who are cut... Yes, it's disappointing that Crable didn't work out... But one thing is for sure, he's already made more money then most of the people on this board make in any given year.
Not even Reiss knows what happened. Whether Crable showed up hurt or got hurt during the conditioning testing or what....
Some of you have shown that you know what class is by saying you wish Crable well. That's as it should be. The rest of you??? Let us know when you lose your job so we can spit venom at you...
I get my daily dose of venom just from reading DaBruinz's posts. I guess that does make him an expert on the subject.
FWIW, I have the exact same general indifference to Crable that I did before he was cut. Until he actually takes a meaningful snap for the Pats (which he never will), I just don't care about him one way or the other. He's a nonentity.
Crap. At least with Crable around you could talk yourself into believing that the Pats would have a renewed pass rush. Now, not so much. Come on Cunningham!!!!!!
I'd like to say he'll be missed...
But he won't be.....
To cut a third rounder before he plays out his rookie contract is not what you had in mind on draft day, obviously. This is the second such cut in as many years IIRC. It has to temper your expectations for Tyrone McKenzie or Brandon Tate at least a bit.

It seems, right now, that we draft better without Pioli... good luck Crable, never saw much of you though.
My man, The Crab. So much promise, so little result. Assuming that Shawn failed the conditioning test by being out of condition and was not disabled by injury, read Bruschi's comments on the conditioning test. It's a matter of will and effort. Bru did not have kind words for those slackers simply unwilling to prepare themselves for competition.
