Football season is almost here. I can already taste it. It is going to be a great year for America's Team.
For the past three years, the Dallas Cowboys have their training camp in Oxnard, CA.
The past couple of years, me and whoever would come with me would drive up to Oxnard, watch one practice, try to get a few autographs and come back home.
This year was different. The high school ministry at my church was having their beach camp in Oxnard. So I got to go to the practice, sleep at the beach camp and then watch two more practices. It was like God organized the whole thing just for me.
It was a fun trip watching them run plays, crazy fans yelling at the players, and Coach Parcells cussing them out when they mess up. And of course, the most hated player in the NFL, El Derado Terrell Owens, is now a Cowboy. Hopefully he is a changed man.
Here are a few pics that I took at the camp. Most of the day consist of getting shoved into a fence and elbowed in the face while waiting for autographs. It was brutal.

We have Viking training camp in our city, and I really just don't understand why people take vacation and sit in the hot sun and watch players practice. I guess if you are a big fan I understand it. Anyway, I hope you had fun.
