Good luck Steve.

Totally unrelated but I went to Eagles training camp yesterday and am feeling pretty good about the team. Jordan Mailata’s combination of size, strength, speed, fluidity, etc. is amazing. I think he’s going to be really good. Jalen Hurts seems like a legitimately good guy and has the right attitude and approach so hopefully he can put together a good season for them. Only about a month away until week 1.

A friend lived in Philly and has told me some interesting stories concerning "The Vet". He lived there, but was a Redskins fan so he caught a ton of grief.

Hurts spent time with us here at OU and the Sooners coaching staff were were able to help improve him. Did not need much. Guy is a class act.

Good luck with your Eagles and good luck today moses!

My neighbor is a “football team” fan. He’s a great guy and great to talk football with him. But yeah, the Vet was just a whole different atmosphere.

Anyways. Thanks and good luck to you as well.

Great job and thanks again Steve, I knew playing the backup tickets would pay off, turning $8 into $1,204 is pretty amazing. Thanks again.

THX guys.. We needed a price in the sequence with those strong Chad winners and we got it with Fast Boat. Forty Under, who I thought would take more money, was a nice number. Fun afternoon. Hope everyone did well!

Mose.. Very cool that you went to camp. I remember thinking as a kid it would be cool to go to Widener because they held training camp there. Excited for season and I agree that they're going to better than anyone thinks. Sirianni and Hurts both right for the jobs.

It was a lot of fun. My 3 and 5 year old were able to snag a bunch of autographs, including from their favorite Eagle - Swoop.

Anyway, awesome job yesterday!
