First of all, Grizz knows football, and Grizz especially knows the Cowboys. Count me impressed.

Second, it takes something special to be able to watch practices and then report them in accurate detail. Grizz did that and he did it great. I had to read his reports to remember what I saw. And, dammit, his report was always more accurate than my memory.

Third, I want to express how pleasurable it was to watch these practices sitting near Grizz and Shango (another knowledgeable and sharp guy). They both had enough class to answer my dumb questions without making fun of me (most of the time at least). They also added odd details that were pertinent and interesting.

Grizz and Shango made my few days of training camp wonderful. Thanks Grizz and thanks Shango.
