I will be tailgating at 9 am for opening day lol. I get more stoked every year just when I don't think it is possible. I am really looking forward to the preseason game against Pittsburgh too, I hope all the tools come down and wear their gay hardhats. Should be fun watching Worthlessburger against our D with no Burress or Ward.

I will be coming home from NC that morning and I was seriously thinking about finding a ticket and swinging by Charlotte.

( edit )

I get excited just for preseason too. But usually at about halftime, I become a little disinterested - some players are out there that will never see real game time. If the Skins are winning, it's cool, but it doesn't mean much, because they're winning with mostly guys who won't touch the ball during the reg. season. If they're losing, it's not a big deal, for the same reason. And it's the same thing with the other team, so it's harder for me to get really excited after halftime in those games. But I still watch the games....this year, it'll be really nice to see what Campbell can do when he's on the field.

My only real concern with preseason games is who gets injured and how bad. Any other preseason stats usually have no carryover in determining regular season success.

It's basically practice, but it just happens to be against another team. For example, your offense goes against their defense and your defense goes against their offense. It's still a practice type setting though, meaning there is no hard tackling etc...

I can't believe than can/are charging for that. I guess since all teams would charge admission to camp if it didn't mean you had to let scouts in, and since a scrimmage is open anyway, they might as well charge. But, still!

Its only $12. Plus they gotta pay the light bills somehow.
