It's sure to be as vanilla as humanly possible, but it's pretty cool that we'll get to see a glimpse of the team this close to the season. As one who has sat through a few boring ass spring practices I'll probably make the short trip into town.

I felt like an idiot after giving up time to watch the Spring Game. In 2009 I drove up for the Spring Game to see the reveal of Tate Forcier as a legitimate UM QB after the debacle that was Sheridan/Threet and at least felt like I watched football.

No way in hell I drive up from Pittsburgh for practice. For those of you who do go, I'd love (and I'm sure others would as well) to read your posts and see your observations.

Will someone be streaming this on one of the M related websites?

Following the NFL lead on this one.

The last time I attended a somewhat open practice, they wouldn't let you use your cell phone and they had the ushers stopping anyone who tried to. So I doubt that there's going to be much media coming out of this -- maybe from some of the media guys who get sideline passes.

Either way, I am pissed because I bought Tigers tickets a couple months ago and it just so happens to be a night game starting at about the same time.

My step-son and I went to that spring game as well, and we'll be up there this Saturday too. Definitely a lot easier to make that call when the drive is less than an hour.

I'll do my best to provide some detail.

Only 26K tickets got snapped up and I'm sure many got them just in case and might not show or use all of them. I should be able to get a pretty good spot without putting too much efort into it.


Edit: Looks like they're backtracking now, anyone that shows up can get it. Thanks DB, I'll be billing you for a new ink cartridge!

Not a real game

Practice scrimmage. Limited view of what we will see plus threat of rain

What time is Briarwood open to ML? Just in case any of my wife, sis in law, or two daughters balk at going due to rain. Plan to golf Georgetown EARLY Sunday morning, already had them stash me a pull cart so I can play before they open....weather permitting
