Re: No More Greenbrier for the Saints in 2017!

You guys act like if training camp is in Metairie these guys aren't going home to their mansions after practice.

Did Sean break up with Miss West Virginia?

The Seahawks train in Renton, Wash. During late July/ early August, the average low temp is 59 and the high is 74 & the hated Cows practiced in Oxnard ,CA for years (until they built the posh new facilities here in Frisco). I can't think of anyone that's questioned these teams toughness the last 5 years.

It's talent and coaching, not location.

Modern medicine = speculation only. Modern medicine= no medical cure for for lots of things, medical cure at some things. I'm sure there are tons of things written about this subject but actually proving it is impossible. You can also look at the SEC, they train in the heat and have produced some pretty good teams over the years. Facts. Drafting the right players I agree along with coaching. In working in heat I see people get frustated easily and makes them easily aggitated which in return they have to dig down a little deeper to finish that job, in posh conditions that I also work in from time to time everyone seems to be less concerned because of the conditions walking around joking, laughing so to speak. I'll take heat anyday to toughen my mental state and sweat out any impurities I have in my body, actually does the body good.

Hell, We're ALL tougher now

Re: No More Greenbrier for the Saints in 2017!

You can tell 7-9 is desperate to find a solution because he is feeling the heat. Fires 3 coaches after he is told he needs to make a change or he is next. Puts in a social media blocker before games. Changes location of camp. Dude is desperate to find a solution. The heat is on

Re: No More Greenbrier for the Saints in 2017!

Training camp should not be a resort atmosphere but also not some 3rd world situation either. Need to find something in the middle. Good enough but also not that good.

Desperate. Feeling the heat. Told he needs to make a change. Told his job is in jeopardy.

Blocks social media BECAUSE of these things. Changes camp location BECAUSE of these things.

I don't always assume. I try not to. I fail a lot. But dude, there are a whole lot of assumptions. Maybe he doesn't want to be 7-9 any more than you do?
