Training camp tweets
The Green Bay Packers opened training camp tonight and all the beat writers were working overtime … that is with their thumbs … the tweets were flying hot and heavy from all of them … thanks folks … almost as good as being there.
With that in mind, let me give you a taste of what’s been tweeted by these fine folks … their work is after the jump … Enjoy …

A scout I talked to before draft liked wr tori gurley as mid-round pick. Went undrafted, packers signed this week
| Pete Dougherty (@PeteDougherty) 7/30/11 8:04 PM dj smith might be shortest lb I’ve seen in 19 years covering packers camp. Little over 5-10, doesn’t mean he cant play, is 6-round pick |
