It's starting to annoy me to hear so many fans talking about so-called "injured players" at this time of the year. During this time the slightest little muscle strains and pulls can cause a player to be sidelined because it isn't worth the risk to cause further injury right now. I wouldn't even call what most of these guys are probably dealing with "injuries". More like "tweeks" and "boboes".

Many of them would still be playing on Sunday if we were midseason. This is the time of year to focus on the positives and allow everyone the chance to be ready to contribute when it comes time for training camp.

Plus its hot, and their bodies are not conditioned for that at all right now. Or anything else for that matter. Mini camps and TC is all about getting your body ready for real time. yOu have to get hit, and train your bodies muscles to absorb blows automatically, its a matter of limbering up for the hits.Its just as important is learning schemes and the mechanics of everything.
