Bad, very bad!

I go back and forth on what I think about this kind of stuff. But in the Chargers case I'm like, don't even let your stars practice. Just get em in the weight room and get their conditioning right and keep them on their feet.

That's not actually practical in any way of course but still the feeling I get.

Football is a weird game in that letting your stars play even a portion of a friendly is deemed far too dangerous.

Every time anyone is slow to get up at Chargers practice, Chargers Twitter explodes with HERE WE GO AGAIN memes.

I know Chicago does like family day at Solider Field one weekend or day of camp where they allow general pop.

Yeah I was thinking a family night type of thing. Other than for autograph seekers I never understood the appeal but tons of people always show up.

I get the appeal for families. These things are usually free and may be the closest thing a lot of those kids get to see to a live NFL game.

There's a fair chance I'll miss them as work is kinda weird & my car is in the shop.

Your team probably signed Sam Darnold to be your starting QB.

So if I'm reading this right based on the betonline thing this is preseason bets on the super bowl winner by state? Maybe?

Without knowing the odds but expecting what they might be I could drop 10 bucks on the Titans on the off chance. So turn Missouri a little less Chiefsy if I'm trying to make money.

Yeah, other teams do this too. The Patriots have a couple in stadium practices where either everyone can go or just season ticket holders

This always comes up and people are still continually surprised and subsequently mad one way or another about what player x has to say about (thing). Everyone should know better by now but they don't lol

The only thing to pay attention to is hoping they don't do some dumb poo poo and get arrested in the offseason
