Sports’ dog days of summer are upon us, which means that NFL training camps won’t be far behind. (Thanks, Mungo.) The fields will be littered with bright-eyed and bulging-bicepped hopefuls, but not everyone is going to make the cut.

Here are some signs that you won’t be making the team:

10. You throw like an NFL QB -- on the Bears

9. The only way you “stretch the field” is by sitting down

8. You can’t even make it cloudy

7. Given the skyrocketing price of flour, you think holding the ball like a loaf of bread is a good thing

6. It turns out that really was flaxseed oil

5. You just got nipped in the 40 by Tiger Woods

4. The equipment manager gives you No. 132

3. Your greatest athletic achievement is starting the wave

2. You’re getting the cold shoulder from Mr. Irrelevant

1. The team’s offering you zero reasons to live

11. You've got more DUI arrests than Touchdowns

And as for the 3rd DVD, my favorite scene is when Devlin is in the hospital and Birdgirl accidentally knocks out the electricity for Devlin's breathing apparatus and almost kills him. Harvey scolds Birdgirl by saying, "You almost killed the client before billable services were rendered!"

I spent a lot of time laughing about the joke timeline - all the uses of the recurring jokes throughout the series, especially "bweoop".
