  1. Squeegees aren't really a solution for the seating area. You'd just be pushing the water on someone else. I remember the ballpark didn't drain well when it opened and the grounds crew had to come up with a system to move water out. I'm a little worried about this too because being in the first row of the lower deck I noticed on Thursday that my whole section was draining down to the first row and collecting there. It was worse at the bottom of the steps than in the seats, but we'd definitely have soaked socks if we had to sit in that puddle during a game.
  2. I don't think you can really argue with the selections. There will always be someone left out when you are picking 4 guys from the history of the franchise. Personally, Poplawski was way down the list, but in talking to my parents about that, people who were in their prime in the late 70s and early 80s, they completely disagree with me.
  3. Pierce is sort of Greg Carr-lite. He's got the go route and the fade down, but he needs to get better at everything else.
  4. I was able to watch about an hour of practice after I picked up my tickets. -Dicroce better be hurt, because he wasn't finishing any of his routes. He kept stopping and then trying to leap to reach the ball. -Clement has a weird release. Reminds me of a baseball pitcher chucking a curveball. -Saw two skelly's. Pierce and Miles really stand out among the receivers. Miles can run every route and has nice hands. He'd be a candidate for an Edwards type role. Kennedy is fast and quick, hands a little iffy. -Cameron looked miles ahead of the other two. Not a huge fan of the tempo of practice. Lot of guys doing a lot of standing around and not a lot of reps. A guy like Fitzgerald spent about 50 minutes of the hour I watched doing absolutely nothing but standing and watching. He did some individual drills on the sideline, took about 30% of the snaps in skelly and long-snapped for special teams (doesn't look like a legitimate long-snapping option as he short-hopped the majority of his snaps). DB's, LB's and DL were always on the move.
