Yeah, I know, they're voluntary. But he was one of the few that didn't show.

Not concerned.

Sound the buzzer when I should feign outrage.

Yeah why would an 8-8 team that added no new talent need to practice? They'll just magically be better come Sept.

Sammy is a leader . . .

Re: Watkins opts for casino over voluntary workouts.

Sammy's own words:

"We need to forget about anybody’s feelings," Watkins said. "We need to call people out. If I’m doing something wrong, call me out. If the line is doing something wrong or messing up, call them out. If the defense is doing something wrong, the defensive line, the secondary, call it out. Because at the end of the day, we’re doing it to win, not to get on somebody and make them feel bad. We’re grown men. This is our job. We get paid millions and hundreds of thousands of dollars. Forget the money. You’ve got to go out there each week and play for the guy next to you.

Workouts. If he misses OTA's or minicamp, then I'll take issue.

I suppose he played the games along the sides of the rooms - nothing in the middle.

Well it may help him to get better in the real world one day. If you look at it that way.

Casino? ... Running crossing patterns that the QB ignores? Meh... same thing either way.

To be fair, if you're at the craps table long enough that's a pretty good right wrist workout

He can't get injured in a casino

He was at a football camp in NC for a former teammate the previous day/yesterday. It's not like he was in Vegas.
