Glenn is, as usual, the best WSU writer around. And he spares no details in his assessment of the first scrimmage. Contrary to the less-than-glowing reports, it sounded, well, pretty bad. If there’s any solice, we can just repeat to ourselves “it’s only a scrimmage, it’s only a scrimmage, it’s only a scrimmage…..”

So many great tidbits in his story, I won’t even attempt to regurgitate them here. But good nuggets nonetheless. But the long-snapping?? Sounds scary-bad. If they can’t have decent snaps in a mid-August scrimmage, what the heck will happen on 9/2 in Auburn!?!? “It’s only a scrimmage, it’s only a scrimmage, it’s only a scrimmage….”
Kind of like last night’s Seahawks game was only preseason. I watched most of the first half when I could, and while a ton of guys are out with injuries, they made Tony Romo look good. TOO good. But let’s get real – this was August 12th. It means nothing. They didn’t look great last year in preseason, in fact they lost to Dallas 18-10 last summer, so who cares. And the injuries are just huge at this point, although most if not all should be back by the opener. Let’s see, D-Jax and Stevens from the O, two of their best receivers, and on D, 3/4ths of the starting d-line in Wistrom, Tubbs and Bernard, Boulware is out from the secondary, on and on it goes. No worries. That said, it was cool to see Julian Peterson wearing #44 out there. I don’t know if it’s just me, but he looked skinny, almost smallish in a way?
I thought he was bigger back in his San Fran days??
Well, at least we know he digs the ladies. And the ladies dig him too apparently.
You GO Julian!
