First day of pads, baby. It’s time to rock n’ roll.
The banging and clanging of pads is going to sound like sweet, sweet music to our ears.

Seriously. Nothing. Not even a damn scratch.
Okay, maybe some scratches and bruises, but please nothing that comes close to missing time or anything along those lines.
Four years ago, a bright-eyed Forest Lamp during heading into his rookie season tore his ACL during the team’s first day of pads in training camp.
