    Just read in the paper that Napa County is one of the counties that is starting to open up. Wineries are still closed, but restaurants and stores are beginning to open.

    I, too, am bummed that Gruden is not playing his top talent much. However, it is kinda fun to see guys who are trying to make the team (and an impression) play.

      Agreed. It would be nice to see the first teamers, at least a series or two during the pre-season. With that in mind, though, I would like to see Mariota play a lot … to see if his elbow injury has healed. Nerve injuries are the hardest things to come back from, especially in the elbow.

    I hate exhibition games. I call them exhibition games, since that’s what they were called many years ago; not “pre season.” It’s like saying a used car is “pre owned.” What?

    I watch a few minutes of exhibition games and then turn it off. It’s unwatchable for most of it.

      Remember when the NFL used to have six exhibition games? I insist upon calling them exhibition games because a league official once called me at berated me for using that term. I told him, “Hey, it’s better than what I want to use but am not allowed to by my editors.” He said, “What’s that?” I said “sham.”

    Preseason football is better than no football, especially this year.

    I do like watching all the young guys, like UDFAs and late round picks, getting their shot and giving everything they have in the hopes of making the 53, getting a shot on the PS or on another team.

    We might see more of the top players in the preseason this year depending on how much actual practice time they get due to the covid mess.
