  • 15 August 2010 Me and the men of Atlanta.
  • 14 August 2010 As good as Panthers running backs DeAngelo Williams and Jonathan Stewart are on the field, they were just as impressive on the bus. As they do on the field, they brought out the best in each other in what was the most entertaining visit we've had this entire bus journey.
  • 29 July 2010 Arrived in Canton today, the first stop on a 19-camp, 19-day bus tour. The bus met me at the steps of the Pro Football Hall of Fame. It's only fitting that my summer football journey starts in Canton, Ohio.
  • 16 August 2010 After nearly three weeks of living in two different buses, Mort and I finally met up in New Orleans. Don't know that I've ever been so happy to see him. Tonight we're going to have dinner together in New Orleans and compare road stories. But the road shows are about to be shut down.
  • 06 February 2011 Celeb sighting -- Harrison and Calista.
  • 09 August 2010 What few realize is that the outstanding cameramen in the field -- and those guys really do a great job -- shine bright lights in your eyes during live shots. But sometimes, ya gotta play hurt.
  • 16 August 2010 When Saints head coach Sean Payton visited Mort and I on our bus today, he brought us copies of his best-selling book. He just wants us to pump it so he can sell more books than Saints quarterback Drew Brees.
  • 14 August 2010 Hard not to admire and respect the game's little big men such as Panthers wide receiver Steve Smith. Though he hasn't practiced this summer, Smith assured that he will be playing opening day vs. the Giants. He wouldn't miss it.
  • 28 July 2010 Be on the lookout on highways, roads and towns near you. Our ESPN training camp tour buses have left the station.
  • 03 February 2011 Nice to have the tables turned. Instead of me interviewing Jets CB Darrelle Revis, Revis is interviewing me. #No comment.
  • 11 August 2010 Few players in the league are any more likable than Jacksonville running back Maurice Jones-Drew. Aside from being a really nice guy, and a heck of a player, he also is someone I can look square in the eye when I'm interviewing. All the more reason he's one of my favorite players in the league.
