redtiger 1,742 Report Share Posted February 1, 2011 With the snowy, cold weather in Dallas the Packers and Steelers have both decided to practice indoors; the Steelers are practicing at TCU's indoor facility, while the Packers are practicing at nearby South Lake Carroll's indoor facility. Thats right a HIGH SCHOOL in Texas has an indoor practice facility, maybe thats more common than I thought but I just find it incredible that a H.S. has an indoor practice facility, but then again it is Texas and it is South Lake Carroll. I watched the Dragons play on ESPN a few years ago and im pretty sure they would take UVA-Wise or Emory & Henry behind the woodshed, they were really good. I wonder just how much money is in that program? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redtiger 1,742 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2011 I know it is probably the premier program in a football obsessed state, but an indoor practice facility is rediculious Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Orange 1 10 Report Share Posted February 1, 2011 I was in Irving in October 2008 for training. We would leave the hotel at 7:00 a.m. and drive to the training facility. We would ride by a couple of high schools on the way, and the FB teams were practicing before school. According to the locals, they practice from daylight to the start of school, go to class, and then practice FB after school. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
