Updated autograph/interview policy
On Friday, we reported that players were being separated into three groups with one group per day being unavailable for autographs and interviews due to mandatory post-practice weightlifting sessions.
Today, we found out that the policy has been amended to where two groups of players will now be off-limits to fans and media. While one group lifts, the other group will work on core exercises indoors. Thus, only one group of players will be able to sign autographs and conduct interviews.
For example, on Thursday, offensive and defensive linemen will lift and linebackers, tight ends, running backs, safeties and kickers will exercise their core muscles. Only quarterbacks, wide receivers and cornerbacks will be available after practice.
And on Friday, linebackers, tight ends, running backs, safeties and kickers will lift, while quarterbacks, wide receivers and cornerbacks will work their cores. Offensive and defensive linemen will talk and sign.
That's the schedule we have until Friday. When we have more information on the rest of the weekend and next week, we will pass it on.

This is just another strike against the Ravens organization!!! Hey Harbaugh, the fans pay the salaries...is it too much to ask that we get a little something in return? I always head up to Westminster a couple days a year with the kids for a meet and greet with the Ravens players. It still costs me leave days from work, a tank of gas, breakfast, lunch and sometimes dinner or the road...I can hardly wait to stand in the hot sun all day just to tell the kids that Ray, Todd, Reed, etc. are not on the coach's schedule today so just be happy with some 3rd string lineman's autograph....after last season, they should be thankful for all of the diehard fans they have!!!!
