Training Camp Travel: Following The Dallas Cowboys

August 17, 2010 at 9:31 AM | by | Comments (0)

Are you ready for some football? It’s still several weeks before the NFL season kicks off to provide meaning to our Sundays once again, but training camp has arrived. We’ve checked out what’s going on at several spots and teams around the league, and this is what we found:

This year’s Super Bowl is going to take place in Dallas, so it would be pretty convenient if the Cowboys were able to make it all the way to the big game. Last year they finally won a playoff game under Tony Romo, but it’s going to take a lot more than that to make it all the way to the season’s final game.

· When's Camp:
The Cowboys started camp almost a month ago, so at this point the team should already have shaken off most of the off season cobwebs. Practice runs through August 27, but there are some breaks in the schedule, like when the team heads to San Diego for a preseason game this weekend. Twice a day practices are fairly common and usually take place at 9am and then at 3:15pm. If the team is only doing their thing once a day it’s usually at 2:15pm.

· Where's Camp:
Since the Cowboys are America’s team they go on a little bit of a roadtrip to ensure that plenty of the country can witness them warm up for the 2010 season. They started things off in San Antonio, but they’ve moved to Oxnard, California for the last few weeks of August. The team has done the California thing for decades, as they realized long ago that the weather near the California coast sure beats relentless practice drills in the Texas heat.

· What's it Cost:
Just like all of the other training camps we’ve talked about things are totally free. There’s obviously going to be plenty of junk for sale, so bring some cash for that. The training camp is actually sponsored by Ford, so maybe they’ll actually be some free swag that you can bring back home.

· What Else:
There seems to be little celebrity drama following the team this year, as Tony Romo has been maintaining a low profile after public relationships with both Jessica Simpson and Carrie Underwood. He seems to be somewhat focused on football first, but apparently still has an eye for the ladies. There’s something going on with Candice Crawford—sister of Chace—but no wedding plans just yet.
