The music is there and as loud.Just not all the time

Jerry is pushing for harp and flute music to blare off the loudspeakers during practices in training camp, complemented with poetry reading interludes such as:

Jack be nimble
Jack be quick
Jack jump over the candlestick
Great balls of fire

We need to start giving Jerry some big props. He's finally made some very good decisions and is very serious about building a winner. Time is ticking against him.

yeah let’s give him props for no music but putting the team on Hard Knocks

LOL, do you guys even read what you write?

He has always been serious about building a winner, strongly disagree with you. Biggest problem is he has no clue how to do it.

They are in Cali ;) Joking aside I like the simplified and focused approach wo the music. Good on JJ...practice is supp. to be boring (in that good way etc.)
the blasting music isnt done to have a party, its done to disrupt the offense and play calling. As soon as the play is over, music volume always dropped, then ramped back up as they came to the line.... damn, figure it out.

if you buy a hat, you can get a training camp patch added for free.

Try the hotdogs. killer.

no autographs/field access this year. thanks Covid.

You can still purchase a basic Fan membership this year, but the bracelet doesn't get you anywhere.

Sit in the far stands. There is a big Miller Lite Balloon that blocks a lot of the view from the near stands.
bracelet got you nowhere last camp in oxnard. The damn buildings have encroached too much into their space. You can only have access to one side of the fields now.... and that isnt changing with or without covid.

No loud music blasting during practice.
No circus atmosphere.
No dancing and playing around.
Total focus on learning and developing.

I am probably going to jinx it, but no serious injuries.

Jerry knew how to build a winner during the 90s, didn't he? The Cowboys did win 3 SBs with Jerry in charge, didn't they?

Why wouldn't you just use simulated crowd noise instead of music?

Totally on board with this. Loud music divides the attention of players

you could use helicopters, you could use jet engines, babys crying.... whats the difference? Noise is noise. Or is the music too fun for camp?

Your argument is flawed. You can know how to build a winner but it doesn't mean it will work. You are suggesting he was serious back then, but hasn't been of late? Unless I am not understanding, you are saying just that?
