It’s been a long time since I have blogged on Allproblogger. A lot has happened in the past month or so. But I’m excited to be back talking football and more. There will be plenty of things to discuss since all NFL teams will be in camp by the end of this weekend. I almost forgot my password to get back in here, it’s been that long! Anyway, lots to discuss. I’m planning on heading to Georgetown, KY this Saturday to watch the Bengals practice(if they let me in). Should be fun. I hear the morning practice on Saturday will be the first in shoulder pads. Sunday at 3pm is the first full pads practice.

GLAD TO HAVE YOU BACK!!!!!!! I missed your unique take on the league.
There are several things I would love to know.
1. Are you going to be playing this year at all?
2. What are you thoughts on Twitter and the NFL players using it? Will it come back and hurt them at some point in time? I know Chad OchoCinco was talking about sending tweets during half time.
3. What are you thoughts on Michael Vick can be really play again in the league?

Welcome back!
I look forward to and am interested in your take on how different guys are doing in camp, how the OL is gelling, who has the edge in position battles, and updates on the guys who are coming back from injury since they sometimes get left out.
Also how different the offense and defense look from last year.

Will do. I will give an honest opinion like I always do. But remember, the preseason is full of fluff. The roster battles will play out quickly

Ok I will touch on those. I think players will use social media as long as they and the team are doing well. If the team is losing, they will stay away. Fans are brutal when u lose. That my opinion

I dont know how many times I have clicked on apb to see the same pic of you at the reds game,wondering when the heck I would see something different.To my surprise finallyyyyyyyyyy.I was just wondering if you signed with another team and didnt want to discuss what offers you had on The table or if you were just burnt from blogging all together.Anyway, its nice to have you back JT.Do you have any teams on the bubble wanting you?

Lots was going on, but I took a vacation from blogging when the offseason got boring. So I’m recharged. Ready to resume talking football, entertainment, technology…..my 1 to 10 list. Should be fun. Thanks for checking in

J.T.
Will the Bengals be allowing cell phones and other devises at camp? I ask because the Denver camp according to their web site is not allowing any. Food for Blog thaught..

Why is there no news about contract talks with Andre Smith, is there really no info leaked? Could this be a good sign or a bad one?
2 Jason Smith (OT) – SIGNED by Rams
5 Mark Sanchez -SIGNED by Jets
6 Andre Smith – UNSIGNED
7 Darrius Heyward-Bey – SIGNED by Raiders
Andre is now slotted, there may be some wiggle room with Keels looking for something closer to Sanchez and the Bengals looking closer to DHB. There should be a slight drop off for outside the top 5, plus QBs get more than RTs, take the % drop from #1 Stafford to #2 Smith, and apply it to #5 Sanchez and #6 Smith and I think you have the basic numbers.

Glad to have you back. When you have a draft pick that has both guys around him signed…..what is usually the hang-up…..is is 10′s, 100′s of thousands of $ or is it things like incentives, signing bonus…..can you give us an inside into what conract negotioations are like.
