Hey. I guess I am just looking for advice. My family scored some tickets to the preseason game tomorrow and wants to take me. The drawback is I wont get off until 6 pm and I believe the game starts at 730. I would be coming from Greensboro. I'm trying to see if it's worth it because I probably won't get there until Half time( or later, depending on traffice) and I'm not sure how parking would be. Any advice? I'm debating on just telling him to give.it someone else who can make the game on time

I wouldn't pass even if it wasn't the starters. I guess I've been in so many pre-season discussion that I want to see guys like Cash and Sandland play. We went to training camp for 2 days as well, so I know all the players even ones that already got cut. If you aren't going to get a chance in the regular season then I would go.

Also, it depends on the tickets. We got great seats (2 3 rows back in endzone and 3 13 rows back) for the fan fest and my wife and kids loved it even though it was just a big practice. If we were in the upper deck, I don't think I would have braved the rain or gotten the seats. I'll watch this game (might be delayed since I have a draft) again because I want to see the guys trying to make the 53 and see how things like our safety/DE depth go.

That make sense. The tickets are lower level. Not sure exactly where yet. There are a few guys I am pulling for to make the team. Wish I just had the day off and this wouldn't even be a discussion

Everyone is different.  But first half likely will be Bersin, Byrd and the fringe guys battling.  2nd half and especially late I bet they throw a bone to guys who they have zero intention of keeping.

I'd watch it on the tube.  But I am an old cranky man with 2 small kids.  I like it when people kindly get the F off my lawn 

In my younger days I would go.  I'd probably go out after the game but a DD would be needed to pull it off

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.

      Not a chance the SEC could compete with the NFL.  In the large cities that are not in the Southeast, (LA, NYC, Chicago, SF) College football is an afterthought.
