Since this is.. Big Blue "Interactive".... We should find a way he can interview a player a week. Have questions posted by us here and then video tape the interview. Maybe call it the weekly " Big Blue Interview."
Please see if your reporter can get us some news on WR Kris Adams. I was really impressed with Adams in camp (so were many on BBI who saw the workouts), but he had that unfortunate broken ankle in the 1st preseason game. It has been 9 months, so I am hoping he is well and ready to contribute. Would be nice to have a young WR step up and make the roster and he would be my candidate based on the little bit we saw last training camp.

Canton: Over the summer, I am going to be doing my best to put out a weekly feature on a different player each week along with camp updates. I'll be tweeting live updates from practice, writing recap articles for the site after and doing the features.
Video-taped interviews is definitely something I'd like to work on, just need to get the appropriate equipment and such. May be something that happens down the road, as opposed to this year.

will be interviewing players for BBI. He already interviewed Quintin Demps...see our recent article on Demps.
What would be really great is to see if he can find Will Beatty so we could hear some news about his recovery.
Users here seem to be thinking he's lost a limb.
Ten Ton Hammer,
He'll be one I'm working on talking to, along with Trumaine McBride. From my understanding, all players will be in locker room and media will have access for a specific time frame. Just a matter of getting to the players before the time runs out. I plan on talking to as many players as I can about as much as I can.
Hopefully, with the quotes gathered, I'll be able to work on an article based around the entire day, but also several featured articles to run in the coming weeks.
Just wanted to reiterate and lay the groundwork for what Eric and I are looking to accomplish over the summer.
I will be credentialed and at as many training camp practices, locker room sessions and everything in between that I can attend. Through this, I will be tweeting live updates (@92Hughes92) from practice, having a recap blog at the end of each practice and also doing weekly/bi-weekly features (pending how available a player is).
If there is a player, storyline, or anything like that that you would like me to focus on (IE the WR that was brought up in an above post) Please email it to me (hughes92@me.com) and I will do my best to work on a story on that topic. The best way to reach me is via email, that ensures I see it.
Also, in regards to training camp practice, as many of you know they split the practices up prior to 11-on-11's. So for example, there will be running backs separated, DB's, lineman, WR's ect, ect.
What we'll be doing is a day or so before each practice, we will run a poll that asks you, the fans, what position group you'd like me to focus on for the individualized portion of the practice. When you read the recap blog online, you will see specific updates on what you want to hear about, then the overall recap on the 11-on-11's.

I will keep an eye out for him.

Now we can get finally some decent reporting from the practices since Mike G ran off.
Best of luck Connor.
