Hold Out? No body is holding out

So camp will officially get rolling today, as all of the veterans were to report to Lehigh yesterday by 7 pm. The question marks became exclammation marks of relief as both Sheppard and Westbrook reported on time. The only person not in attendance was the "Big Kid" Shawn Andrews. Some early reports were that he was going to hold out, because he was unhappy with his contract. This couldn't be further from the truth.


Apparently, Andrews did not report to camp for, "personal reasons," whatever that means. Andrews' agent, Rich Moran indicated that it wasn't "the kind of personal matter where you check into rehab, or anything." Thank Rich, I feel much better now. You should have left it at "personal reasons."


In light of everyone showing up for camp, I offer the following statements:
To Brian Westbrook and Lito Sheppard: Thank you for for reporting to camp, and handling your business issues professionally.
To Shawn Andrews: I apologize for nearly jumping the gun. Best wishes in hadling your "personal issues."

Go Birds!
