OK guys. I am not able to see the show. I have to live vicariously through you. How was it?!!!! Feedback, comments, surprise story lines. Feed me Seymour! The suspense is killing me!

Yer not the only one Roman. I'm stuck house/dog sitting at my sisters while she's out of town. No HBO.

Is it just me or is anyone else concerned that Goff didn't know the sun rises in the east? LOL...I enjoyed it but I'll let some else summarize the episode. Chris Weinke is a hard ass though.

So that WR Long was released because he broke a team rule. Had a girl in his room.

Fisher said at the very first meeting no guest in the rooms, period. He didn't want anyone coming back to camp next season with a 3 month old watching.

Fish also said he was not going 7-9, or 8-8, or 9-7 or even 10-6. Not good enough for this team, they are too talented.

Waufel is a beast in his own right! Former Marine. Once a Marine, always a Marine.

I liked the fact the coaches have some hard ass style about them (Weinke and Waufel!) Tavon playing pokemon go was entertaining. I still think next weeks episode will be even better as there will be more focus on cuts and actual practices. Not bad for a first episode!

Very excited after watching that 1st episode! I know there are some that hated the first 5 or 10 minutes and I'm sorry but this is meant to create excitement for our team and the NFL.

Not shocked that Goff, and others, didn't know the sun rose in the East :D Dumb jock stereotypes and all!

Anybody else notice the tempo of the highlights? The first half hour most all the play highlights were bad. Missed catches, bad throws, RB getting hit at the line etc etc then the 2nd half the plays were completed a lot more.

I loved the emphasis the team puts on the special teams practice and Harkey taking the lead there driving home to the young/new players that roster spots are earned in those practices.

Kroenke spending a little of his huge bank roll and buying them AC units when none of the dorms or meeting rooms had them.

Gurley is a smack talker!

Wauffle personifies the old saying:

Kush is a nut job and I hope he takes the backup center job!

Fisher clowning on Tavon for his cramp was awesome in my book!

That's all I can think of for now. Love the first episode.

A little hard to swallow being a STL guy, but it's great getting to see it all from this angle. I can't imagine how exciting it must be for some of the young vets to go from boring ass st.louis to LA. Happy for them to get to experience that. No real characters have shown up yet tho.

I have to say coach Fisher with his semantics about how the little mistakes and bullshit are what a 7-9 team does.. He said we have too much talent to go 7-9.

Coach got feisty and said I'm not EFFING going 7-9 or 8-8 or even 10-6.. You can tell Fisher is feeling the pressure of winning but he's not hiding from it. He's challenging himself and the whole team that this 7-9 shit ends in 2016! Probably my favorite part or at least one of them for sure.......

Start Episode 1 in "God's Country." Couldn't ask for a better start. I just need to find out where his cabin is. I know it's close to my parent's cabin. Fisher's day one speech... yeah I love hearing that.

One thing that stuck with me was Fisher releasing WR Deon Long for entertaining a female guest in his personal quarters. Easy come easy go.

HBO site says it will be there tomorrow at 4am.

Thats why I canceled NOW and will just keep regular HBO for a month.
