Anyone else watching the live twitter thread in the Newsfeed section? Wow. Defense is trying to kill some people. I love it.

The Newsfeed section is useful at times, but it's hard to find things. Also, to get to that Twitter feed I had to click four links. I miss WG's twitter threads. I don't know if she's busy or if the Newsfeed section has somehow taken the place of threads where we can comment.

I think you are right on that. I just am in the practice of going to BTB to check it out, but happened to find it in the newsfeed section and so wanted to promote the CZ thread first. :)

Speaking of Larry Allen ... Larry Allen walking into practice. Still a big dude. The people's big dude. pic.twitter.com/Z64taayiWS
BRlY8jKCEAAkrHC.jpg


1 on 1s. Scandrick again competing with Dez. Two pbus. Dez has hit the ground a couple of times.
Passing drills against air. Orton has managed to overthrow Witten and throw too high for Escobar.
Running play. Sean Lee furious, lights up Terrance Williams with a **. 'You want to hold me, mfer! You want hold me!'
Then Hatcher comes over. Murray tosses the ball at his helmet. Hatch bluffs a move at Murray, Murray gets out of there. Lol.
Sean Lee has such a nice guy off field. Lol. Wild to see him get so mad. He did not like that. Wow.
Hayden and Leary jawing now. Leary sticking up for Murray. Will Allen getting in there for Hayden.
Murray taken down hard next play. Other guys starting to yell 'enough now!' Murray done got somebody mad now lol
2s are in. Dez behind the huddle, talking animated to Hatcher three feet away. Hatch is ignoring him.
Micah Pellerin gets a piece now. Pops tanner good. Gets a chest bump from Allen off sideline.
That team session is over. Defense walks off lookin proud. Wow.
Will Allen near pick of Romo in 7 on 7. Stepped in front of Witten. Baited them both. Got a nice practice going.
Will Allen pbu in the air against Witten. Witten falls hard on his back. Rolls over slow, gets to his feet and runs back. Crowd was worried.
Murray a perfect cutback. Such a good angle. DWare left chasing.

Rowan Kavner ‏@KavnerDC 56m
Dez just fingertips short of a diving deep ball in 1-on-1s. Soon after, Terrance beats his man deep on a go route from Romo
Will Allen all over the field and near the ball during the start of these team drills
Sean Lee absolutely infuriated. Didn't like something about the way he was blocked by Williams. Let him know about it.
Easily the most chippy practice since we've been out here. Not close. You'd think offense and defense were two different NFL teams.

Bryan Broaddus ‏@BryanBroaddus 1h
Hall of Famer Larry Allen in the middle of the offensive line drills today. One of the best I had ever seen. pic.twitter.com/wOaj7CcTWY
BRlfzlaCEAAzHCq.jpg


Parnell getting work at right tackle in this period. Gets out quickly to his right on the zone play, Scandrick took him on to his credit.
Parnell is playing with a chip today, has worked a couple of nice second level blocks. Disappointing that we haven't sen this from 1st go.
Micah Pellerin just played cover 2 corner like it was meant to be played. He stepped up off the edge and just blasted Lawrence. Set the edge

Todd Archer ‏@toddarcher 1h
Darrion Weems is back in pads after missing 2 days with bruised chest
Offense working against cards. Preparation for Phoenix game.
Anthony Armstrong hurt his left finger on drill in which coach whacks a him with a pad
Nice job in one on one for rookie LB DeVonte Holloman with two pass deflections.
Sean Lee not happy with Terrance Williams on run play. Might have felt like Williams went low
Followed by Murray flipping ball at Hatcher and running away
Jermey Parnell the second team RT. Darrion Weems the LT
Feisty at practice. Miles Austin and Will Allen have nice block battle after yapping back and forth
Nice job by Jermey Parnell leading on a toss play for a gain by Randle. Earned high five from Callahan
BW Webb working first team nickel with Claiborne out.
Orlando Scandrick with a PBU that should've been a pick. Something said way too often with him

Tim MacMahon ‏@espn_macmahon 1h
With Mo Claiborne still out, Sterling Moore is the third corner in nickel. BW Webb is buried on the depth chart.
Receivers running through gauntlet. Miles Austin offers $15,000 to anyone who forces a fumble.
No receiver claimed Miles Austin's $15,000 reward. Terrance Williams grumbled about promise of a steak dinner from OTAs going unpaid.
Sounds like Anthony Armstrong dislocated a finger. "Is it back in place? WR coach Derek Dooley asked when Armstrong returned to drills.
One rep after drawing wrath of Jason Garrett, Terrance Williams toasts a young corner on a go route.
Gavin Escobar is having a tough time getting open in 1-on-1s today. OLB DeVonte Holloman just broke in front of him and had a near pick.
DeMarco Murray and Sean Lee bark at each other. Jason Hatcher comes over to get Lee's back and Murray jokingly jogs away.
It looks like Dez Bryant's right shoulder is bothering him after he extended to make a catch over his head. Slammed ball down, rotating arm.
Dez Bryant quickly got his shoulder checked out by athletic trainer Jim Maurer, but he didn't leave the practice field.
DE Kyle Wilber is getting checked out by the medical staff. He was down for several seconds after a pass-rush rep.
Kyle Wilber is back in practice. Just blew by Darrion Weems for a sack.

Calvin Watkins ‏@calvinwatkins 37m
Rod Marinelli cussing out the 3-team dline.
DeMarco Murray and will Allen needed to be separated.
Joseph Randle with a hard powerful run. He showed great vision.
Parnell looks pretty good today, very aggressive and pushing people out the way.
Scandrick drops a pick. Romo struggling today.
Austin with nice catch during 2-minute drill over the middle.

Brandon George ‏@dmn_george 58m
Cowboys WR Anthony Armstrong seemed to dislocate finger in drill. Came back and dropped pass. WRs coach: "If you can bend it you're fine."
Spirited practice by Cowboys. Now DL Nick Hayden and OG Ron Leary were pushing each other after run play.
DE Kyle Wilber just hurt his left hip area in 1-on-1 drills between OL-DL.

No problem! I also check the DC.COM Multimedia site for the TC Live video. They usually post them an hour or two after the camp ends. I absolutely love the video coverage this year, it's absolutely fantastic. Get to see real time football. At work, it's hilarious, I'm talking about people like Underwood, Selvie, and Micah P and people are confused man. It's a shame that people don't follow preseason (especially here in the DC area with those Commanders fans) and so I have to follow their team also to be able to educate them. Damn shame really.

Well, I don't do the twitter threads for the morning practices because they're just walkthroughs and are just recaps of the injured. The past couple of weeks I've been busy in the evenings so sometimes I don't have time to do the live twitter threads, but I'll go back and do a wrap-up thread for the evening practices. If someone else starts a thread like this one, then I'll simply drop the recap in a post.

I appreciate it, WG. Thanks for when you can.
