Many do. I liked the exchange from him and Mike.

Shanahan said something and Morgan responded. Shanahan then yelled: “I don’t give a [expletive]!” for all to hear.

Redskins practice report: Aug. 7 | WashingtonExaminer.com

Brandon Banks standing out again. M. Hurt struggling again...jeez. Kinda tired of hearing about our fill in guys getting beat.

Veteran CB DeAngelo Hall got into a skirmish with rookie LT Tom Compton, of all people. Hall flared to the sideline in pursuit of a screen pass. Compton pushed him in the back, a clear penalty. Hall was not happy with that, and he grabbed Compton’s facemask to tell him so. I can only guess Hall’s message was something like:

“Dear kind sir, I insist that you cease, as your actions could be injurious.”

Compton shoved Hall, prompting coach Mike Shanahan to crack the whip. “Hey, you guys, cut it out!” he shouted.

This made me laugh

I'm a big Tom Compton fan now.

Any rookie who rustles the jimmies of a hothead like D-Hall in camp is someone we want on our team.

Here's some of my 200 pics I took on Fan Appreciation Day.

First, they came out:


Best photograph of the day, quality-wise (yes, talking photo quality):

^ OH, and I caught one of those shirts...I'm 2/2 in getting shirts from cheerleaders in my 2 trips down now!





My son...he was very happy here:



My view of the practice wasn't as good as my endzone spot last time I went.

If you pay rent, sure.

This was my view most of the time during the action, behind the player bench.







RGIII!

You're right, I won't argue with that fact.

We had our 1-year old daughter there too, again, cute like mommy.

I have a photo of me and her with the Hogettes (yeah, those guys!) but I won't break the forum with my face.



Man, the forum makes the picture look weird when it shrinks them. I had an awesome view and plenty of action shots two years ago. We didn't get the same spot this time, we were on the far sideline of the second, far field where the defense practices. They moved us over the the edge of the first field near the end for 11-on-11 but the players' backs were blocking my view of the action.

Still had a great time though!

I love this picture:

Were you over on the Defensive side/far side by the forest? It looks like you got these shots when they pulled the ropes in during the 11-on-11 drills. Either way, you got some excellent shots. Well done.

[Monkeydad]

Yep, since we had the baby with us, we went to where there was shade, at the forest side like you said.

When they pulled the ropes over, my son and I went. Those shots with Morgan and Gomes in the rope drills, that was less than 10 feet in front of us. We were about 10-15 yards down from the water cooler that RGIII kept going to.

All we could see during the fights were a big mess of bodies running in to break it up. Looked like Cofield was playing enforcer since he's the biggest.

I'm not worried about RGIII's durability after seeing him in person. He looks small on TV but in person, he's actually pretty tall and check out his arms in those pictures I took, you can see the veins bulging out like the Hulk. He's a strong guy. He'll be fine.
