Seems they might be jumping the shark a bit. They've really come up with some pretty creative stunts.

They have Coby Fleener playing tug of war with sumo wrestlers. They have Michael Floyd running behind a wall of cheering cheerleaders as the football comes in. They Michael Brockers, Melvin Ingram and Quinton Coples treating Brenkus like a rag doll. Weeden goes skeet shooting.
In some ways I love it, because it's all about entertainment and it's just a bunch of nonsense that happens to be pretty entertaining.
But in other ways, it's kind of sad, because I feel like about half of the stuff they do is REALLY interesting and dare I say even informative...and the other half is complete and utter nonsense. When they're bad, they're REALLY bad...it's like "NUMBERS! WE'VE GOT NUMBERS AND THAT MAKES THIS SCIENCE!"
Either way, I want to watch it, but I'll be flying up to Washington, DC tomorrow and may not have time after we land and meet up with some family and whatnot. I'll be en route to New York City on Wednesday and there all Draft weekend.

The skeet shooting sounds brilliant.

Saw the skeet shooting segment. That was absolutely ludicrous. Weeden needed about six looks at it before he hit his first one, but then he went 4 of 5.
