There is something about that specific time of year that always gets my adrenaline pumping. Even if I'm just watching from my couch with a lukewarm beer, the energy of a squad trying to prove they belong on a roster is different from anything else in sports. It's that raw, unpolished stage where nobody has anything to lose and everyone is playing like their life depends on it.
I remember sitting in the stands a few years back during a summer camp session, and the heat was brutal, but the atmosphere was electric. You could practically smell the desperation and the ambition coming off the field. It’s not the polished, tactical chess match we see in December; it’s just pure grit and seeing who actually wants to be there when the lights aren't even on yet.
Do you guys find yourself getting more invested in the training camp grind than the actual regular season games?
