He's the one who came over to us at the high school practice after Oxnard, right? He is awesome, friendly and wants the Rams in LA. Ex-military guy.

Very chatty.

Yup, very chatty/friendly. Didn't know he was x-military.

But even Fish was chatty/friendly today. Honestly, never seen him so relaxed. He looked like the circles under his eyes were gone, he had color on his face, and he looked like he lost some weight. Boy, what a win in Seattle won't do for you, eh?

By the way, I learned that there are two fields at the school. One is the school's field, and the other is actually behind the school, between the school and the hotel. This is where the Raiders (Rams practiced). It had it's own tin-building in the back, which had been converted to a locker room. Nice little facility.

But everything is sealed up. You can't see in if you're outside. A few people were trying to peer thru holes in the fences, and the staff would go over and apologize to them and then tape-up or cover-up any seams or holes. And security were asking people to leave, not that there were that many that I saw.

Not telling you guys anything you don't already know, but Brockers & Battle are both enormous men. They both standout, even though there are others on the lines that seem to have similar measurables.

Anyone else have an opinion on Nick Toon (WR)? I like the look of this kid. But then I see he is in year 4 and still on a PS player. What gives?
