Yeah, it's also easier to take from someone who's performance is actually better than your's.

A very good point.

I am SO GLAD to hear about the workouts going on. I really hope that the coaches are noticing who is attending and who is not. If nothing else, it denotes an attitude of desire to improve that ALL of them could use.

I think it will show in their performance on the field in the official pre-season. I really can't imagine why anyone on the team would not be participating. There is no one who couldn't get better. To me, these are the players who really want to succeed. The others are willing to ride along on their rep.

Well, the rep from last season isn't going to take anyone very far, so if I wanted to have a place on the team this season, I would be out their practicing!
