Carp nailed it.
You need these types of guys on your team. Frankly I'd like another or two. Ratliff needs to step up and be the emotional leader of this defense, because his attitude and mentality can really fire up a unit.

No biggie.
I was trying to find the thread where Allen and Newton use to find, as I had never heard that.

Top fight card?
If two guys were going to start throwing down at practice, smart money would have picked Tuesday's two culprits: Marc Colombo and Jay Ratliff.
However, coach Wade Phillips said he had another player pegged to be the first instigator of training camp.
"I thought [Keith] Brooking really because I’ve been around Keith and he normally is the guy in the first fight," Phillips said. "That’s why I was glad he wasn’t."
As for best training-camp fights, Phillips didn't have to think too hard about it.
"When I was with Buddy Ryan because he encouraged them, although nobody was fighting Reggie White or anybody. I think it was more when you're working with another team. We went to Detroit with Buddy Ryan with the Eagles and we went up to Detroit and worked out with them. It was pretty much a fight. It wasn't much workout. Special teams, they had them blocking punts. We were supposed to be working together and they were blocking punts. It seemed like every drill was a fight. We didn't get much out of it."

Fight overshadowed great play by Carpenter
Just witnessed the first real fight of training camp between two heavy weights. Nose tackle Jay Ratliff blindsided tackle Marc Colombo following an interception by Bobby Carpenter. Colombo didnt like it and the two went at it before being separated. They are two of the nastiest players on the team so this would have been a doozy.
The ironic thing is the fight overshadowed a great play by Carpenter, who tipped the pass by Tony Romo up in the air and then snared it for an interception. It was his second pick of practice. He also took a pass away from Martellus Bennett in seven on seven drills.

Tempers Flare In Afternoon Practice
Posted by nickeatman at 8/4/2009 5:22 PM CDT on truebluefanclub.com
It’s about that time of year. Every training camp, after a week or so, you start hearing the same thing about players getting so tired of hitting each other and it’s time to go play another team. Well, that will have to wait another 10 days or so before the team travels to Oakland. But two of the team’s most intense players got after it here Tuesday afternoon, sparking the first real fight of camp.
Pro Bowl Bowler Jay Ratliff and offensive tackle Marc Colombo scrapped it out after an interception by Bobby Carpenter during the team drills. Now, it’s not often you even get both first-team units facing each other, but in an already-intense practice, things got heated when Ratliff blindsided Colombo, who was running towards Carpenter, who got off the ground after making a diving pick.
Ratliff decked Colombo to the turf, prompting the feisty offensive tackle to get up swinging. It looks like he landed a big swat to Ratliff’s helmet, which didn’t help the situation. Both sides of the ball swarmed to break it up, but the battle actually last two plays.
Ratliff got in Colombo’s face after the next play and even took a small swing in his direction, but Colombo refrained from retaliating.
From the outside looking in, you wonder why Ratliff would try to knock out Colombo. Then again, who knows what’s happening in the trenches on every other play.
Sounds like football.

I can't really recall Carp getting all this love in previous camps.Bleu Star;2867474 said:
He's been considered pretty much a "chump" from his first minicamp.
