A day at NFL Training Camp isn't that different from a day at the summer camps you used to go to as a kid (or still go to as a "counselor" if you're a creepy, unemployed townie).
TODAY'S CAMP SCHEDULE
8:00 a.m. – Breakfast
Parents/Agents: Please inform the camp nurse if your player has any food allergies or takes steroids via needle.
8:45 a.m. – Cabin Cleaning
Rookies only! Rookies may not participate in camp activities until all veteran cabins are spotless and stripper bodies are disposed of properly.

10:45 a.m. – Arts & Crafts
Campers will break into groups of 11 and, using only a bit of leather and a playbook, attempt to create beautiful and intricate plays.
Noon – Lunch
Today’s menu: Hot dogs, hamburgers, fries, painkillers and anti-inflammatories.

Today: Trust falls. Selected players with non-guaranteed contracts will have their assumed financial security pulled out from under them by management.
2:00 p.m. – Communication Time
Campers may use this time to send postcards home, Twitter, or complain to the media.

7:30 p.m. – Talent Show
Campers will compete in throwing footballs for distance from their knees, catching passes one-handed and other amazing football skills that have no practical application to games.
8:30 p.m. – Showers
All campers must shower. No homo.
9:00 p.m. — Scary Stories Around the Campfire!
Tonight we will be reading “Tales of ACL Tears and a 2011 Lockout”!!! Bwaaah-ha-haaaa!!! (Also, the campfire may be more of a joint.)
10:30 p.m. — Lights Out!
No campers may have more than three women in their bed!
