Just something I was kicking around in my head...
Say you could pick a perfect location for training camp. Where would it be? (Besides your hometown. )
My thoughts are that the perfect place would be somewhere in the region with decent weather and, preferably, in a smaller city so the guys can focus on football -- like teams used to do it.
Maybe somewhere in northern Arkansas? There's the Jerry connection, of course, and that is Cowboys country. But that might be too humid. There might not be any town big enough to handle the media that cover this team, either.
What about El Paso? Not a small town, but it's great Cowboys country that could attract people from west Texas, New Mexico and maybe even Arizona. But it's probably too hot, even at altitude. And Juarez might be too close. :
(BTW, I think it's good for the guys to practice in hot weather, but that doesn't seem to be the conventional wisdom today. Oh well.)
Here's what I was thinking -- how about somewhere in northern New Mexico? That's still Cowboys country, and you could find a place in the Rockies with some nice cool weather -- probably not much warmer than what Oxnard is. And then Chief and ABQ and maybe even Hos could go.
Any ideas? Just something to pass the time until next week when we get some real news. And something about going halfway across the country to California just doesn't seem right.
