Players are grumbling about "Camp Coughlin"

#22

I seem to remember the original training camp was conducted at the University of Wisconsin Stephens Point with the players staying in small dormitory rooms.  It was very hot, even by Florida standards, that summer of 1995.   There were extended two-a-day practices, full contact, salt tablets, and limited water breaks.

As a new franchise, they were out-talented by almost everyone, but they showed desire, hustle, and an intense desire to win.  They won four games that season and were really only blown out one time (44-0 loss to Detroit).  

Our current crew grumble about "Camp Coughlin"?  With the exception of Poz and maybe two or three others, I doubt any of these players would have lasted a day in a real "Camp Coughlin."

Frankly, after what I saw against Tampa Bay, I doubt this group of players will even get to the four wins achieved by a brand new franchise.  They lack the necessary desire, hustle, and will to win.  They are solely motivated by receiving (not necessarily earning) a bloated pay check.  They seem to have zero pride in themselves or their organization since they not only do not put forth any real effort, they don't bother to even act like their pitiful efforts are an embarrassment to each of them personally.  Their mantra seems to be:  1.  Go forth and do little.  2. Get and cash an unearned large pay check, and 3.  Laugh at and about those who expected any thing differently.

I would gladly see another Camp Coughlin.  Most of these jokers would be gone and working some minimum wage job.
