First he's on the Jim Rome show, now he's being quoted in The Sporting News. Careful Ephraim, Dunta might not like you easing in on his territory. LOL
Anyway, the article is about the weirdness that occurs during training camp. TSN asked various players fluff questions about training camp; i.e., what's the strangest things you've seen or what's the most unusual rookie hazing you've seen? Stuff like that.

My favorite line was the last one.


OT EPHRAIM SALAAM, Houston Texans (http://www.sportingnews.com/nfl/teams/texans/index.html)

Strangest eating habits: Chester Pitts. I have never seen anyone eat something whole without any chewing and be OK. I'm still trying to figure it out.
Hardest worker: Mark Bruener, because he just had a birthday and is 70 ... no, he's 58 years old. He came into the league back in the early '60s, and for a guy that old, he works extremely hard. More power to him.
Most memorable rookie initiation: I saw a team strip a rookie down naked and tape him to the goal post. They left him out there. An hour and a half later he was still out there taped naked to the goal post with, like, baby powder and stuff rubbed on him.
Unique way to cope with the heat: Don't practice. That's it. Have a pulled something and convince somebody you need to stay inside. Biggest suck-up: Mike Flanagan. Please, spell that in bold and capital letters.


Oh no he DI'N'T!! LOL!!
Straight up called Flanagan out. LOL

God, I hope McKinny wins the Center spot this year or those two will be going after each other instead of the other team!!
