Camp parking question

Holy pooh.  Been a few years since we've been able to make it to camp.  Last time we were there I recall some traffic patterns had changed so I figured I better look up info on how to get in to the area to park because I couldn't remember.

Boy have things changed by the looks of the diagram.  Use to be you could park fairly close.  Now it appears there's no parking remotely close and the different areas are rather spread apart from each other.

So if we arrive today 10 minutes before the start of practice, which lots do you think will already be filled so as to avoid wasting time looking for park but not necessarily be the hardest one to walk from?

Guess we won't be carrying lawn chairs in from that distance.  I've always said I hope they don't move camp from Spartanburg but the parking situation has become not conducive to a fun, relaxed family experience.

There are shuttle buses.  When I went in 2016 I parked at the theater. Easy.

Lots A and B are pretty close to the practice fields, but you have to get there early. The others are further out. We parked in lot D Thursday. It is a pretty good walk across part of the campus to the practice fields. I just had my knee scoped about 3 weeks ago, so the walk was rough over uneven terrain. We could have parked much closer in A or B, but this was my first time attending training camp and I really didn't know where to go. We just ducked in the first lot we saw. Friday, we parked in lot A on the third row, but we got there 3 hours before practice started. There, you just cross the street, and go down the walkway to the fields. We did have to wait until the gates opened an hour before practice started.

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      Did I mention that he was on worse teams?  Yes.  Do QBs alone win games?  No.  Did Cam, on a much better team with some awesome defenses ever have 2 consecutive winning seasons?  No.  So now you are cherry picking,  If the overall stats are similar, you take a look at him.   I told you that you look at his skill set---but you wanted to tell me that he sucks and mentioned performance.  I just presented performance--and his numbers are very similar to Cam Newton's numbers--a player most call the best Panther QB ever--and I agree.  By the way, Fumbles are evidence of how bad his OL has been--so you are saying that a QB in a situation worse than Cam's who has stats and physical abilities very similar to Cam's should not be given a look when you have Bryce Young at QB?  You are going with that story because you simply talked your way into a corner and now you are trying to save face.  No good GM would do what you suggest because "he sucks."  Sorry, but the facts do not support you.  But no matter what eye-opening details I provide, there are some who are going to go their Google machines to try to find some reason to support an ignorant approach to developing the QB position.  You ignored the similarities to Cam and went cherry picking.  I know what you are doing--but I am only suggesting (as I have stated before) that we bring him in as one of three approaches to resolving the QB issue. Compete with Bryce and draft a QB. Basically, I am suggesting that Jones has the potential to replace Dalton and compete with Young.  He is a battered stock that could get better in a better situation--that is human nature.  Instead, I am called a Daniel Jones lover and superfan.  That is good debate--But a real sign of immature thinking is the inability to LOGICALLY consider alternative perspectives--which is actually a characteristic of intelligence.

      I don’t get this, I know that is the popular thought process but I just don’t think it’s true.  For instance head to head last year the ACC had a winning record against the SEC.  The SEC had a losing record in bowl games. This year so far the head to head is 2-3 SEC and that’s with a fluke Vandy win in week one.  I see the ACC taking another head to head winning season after next week.  The SEC is mostly hype with 3 good teams, in my opinion.  But to say any ACC team would get exposed I believe is a stretch

      What the hell?  How is presenting Cam's stats hating him?  The point is not to hate Cam, it is to show you how similar Jones is to him and why you take a look at him.  I mentioned Jones has the skill set to take a look--the response is, "look at his 5 years of performance."  So I compare him to the greatest QB in franchise history, and the stats are similar--while Jones was in a worse situation.  Now that is "hating?"  Come on.  This is a meritless, ignorant, personal attack because you are wrong.  Just stop it.  You all attack the poster when you have nothing.  So saying "we should consider a guy with similar stats and size to Cam Newton" is now hating Cam and making me a Jones super fan- that is just stupid.
