(S2) - Weekend PT #2 - Rookies first practice

[manicmav36]

I hadn't really thought about how many of us there were until I walked into the locker room for our first practice. There were more of us than veterans! It definitely went a long way towards making us more comfortable and really forced the returning players to step up and be leaders, which they seemed to take to very quickly.
I think the most shocking thing for me was walking by the offensive line meeting room before practice, trying to scope out who I would be lining up against every day. There was not a single veteran in the room, all rookies. But, man, those guys were big. Of course, on one side there was our three linemen that we took back to back to back. "The Three Horsemen of the Blockpocalypse", as some of us have started jokingly calling them. On the other, Lee and Pancake, posted up around a white board, talking animatedly about a protection scheme. A great group of guys, but on the field, they were my enemy until the games start. We're really going to be pushing each 0other.
Now If I could just find my fellow defensive line members... we have some sack celebrations to work on.
