Not really. I think of this as the worst time of year for me because it is such a long drought without any action. Following the mini camp (always in NO, btw), training camp will not start until sometime between 7/24 and 8/1. Oh, I dread it just thinking about it. The only news other than bad that comes durng this period is draft pick signings and that will be sparse until mid July. We have two mini camps between now and then and the June 1 cuts. That's it.

Just looked it up. Camp started 7/28 last year.

We have an extra preseason game this year as we are playing the Hall of Fame game. I don't know how that might affect the schedule for the start of camp, it probably wont be more than a few days. The time frame I mentioned was the time frame it fell in last year. Players showed up for last year's camp on 7/27.

My mother works at the college in PA where the Steelers train. They are going in a week early, so I assume we will do the same, 7/20 or so?
