So you can check out anybody else's training camp, if you so desire and have a bunch of stories up on ESPN.com right now as well.

So let's get into the practice because today was the first day with pads.

Also a second day in a row with fans.

Today it was season ticket holders.

Shout out to gold member Angela Rowe, whom I got a chance to talk to her and her husband, Tim.

Before, as they were stretching, got a chance to spend 10, 15 minutes with them.

This is a small building. If you're getting kind of annoyed at the negotiations, the pace of them to offer, you might see those people in the hallway. And it just does how do you react to that? Not that, you know, someone like McCorn is not going to sit there and yell, but internally, how does, how do you feel like, do you like being there with all
