Two players each were awarded a bottle of beer by Vermeil early in that first camp, because they had to go a whole week playing offensive tackle without a backup, taking every snap, enduring every bit of contact, twice a day. Soon, though, both had quit - just up and left. About a dozen players did that in the first days of that camp, which prompted Vermeil to say, "Seems like we're getting to the point in our society where the easiest thing to do is quit. I guess there's nothing left in our society as tough as football."
