Does anyone have any pictures they would like to share with us who went to the scrimmage last nite. Anything would be great.

I don't really have any scrimmage pictures, but I have a few from Saturday morning. I will try and link them here. I am the webmaster for Corey's high school team and I loaded the pictures there. I will attempt the link here.

I will try and post some more when I get some time.
Yes, I believe Corey will remain number 18.
Scott.

Why did the receivers have their own flag?

I really like the new uniforms. They are actually kind of plain, somewhat like the old ones. They look like they are a darker shade of orange. Pretty slick.

Thanks for posting the pics!!! I don't think the helmets really look that much clearer without hte white in the middle of the falcon head. . .
That's cool your son is #18, do you know how much of an honor it is to wear that number? That was Brian McClure's number. . .

I was at the scrimmage on Sun. nite...left a bit early since my lady friend had to get to work on Mon. and the 2 + hr. drive home was staring us in the face..
If I had a complaint to make, I think there should've been some "programs" like they had at the Spring game to at least identify the players... And the QB's definitely needed to have some kind of identifying Numbers on the blue jersies. To be honest, since all were black, if was hard to tell WHO was in the game after Omar ( His
height alone made a lot of the difference).
Wonder if the crowd would've been better if the stadium had been used. After 2 days of very sunny and dry weather, I thought they could've played there without damaging the field..On the other hand, it's fun to sit close to the action at the practice field, which was in excellent shape.

Definitely. I would've been there.
I cannot stand watching football at field level. I'm too short to see the sorts of things I like to see. I'm not a ball watcher. I like to watch the OL & DL play or the WR-vs-DB play downfield. I have a difficult time watching those things at my height from field level.
As such I didn't get off my lazy butt to get to the scrimmage. I had planned to, but in the end I didn't feel like watching it at the practice field.

You could have watched from the top of the east stands. I would have done that if I wasn't there with my daughter and her stroller....

I printed off the roster from bgsufalcons.com and brought that with me. Of course there were several duplicates on the field and other players have already changed numbers, so there were still some players I couldn't figure out. There were several people who asked me who a guy was, were they passing those out somewhere or just looked over my shoulder.
I do agree 100% with the QB issue though. I figured out which one Washington was since he is the slightest of the other three. But Johnson and Turner are of a similar size so I didn't know which was which either. I just assumed that it was Johnson with the second team offense since Turner has only been here a couple of weeks. Guess I was wrong!

Cornelius McGrady's dad was in Iraq serving and that flag is the WR unit's way of remembering him. I don't know if he is still in Iraq at this time.

FANTASTIC!! Glad to see it worked for you!
Don't look for them to stay there (in the uploads gallery) though. I'll be organizing all the galleries by sport and season (I hope). Great pics though, and thanks for sharing them!
