Brett Davis-USA TODAY Sports
Usually training camp is a friendly time, it’s all good hearted interviews about fun offbeat stories. Every camp is full of optimism as they look to take advantage of the clean slate a new season presents. Some players hold grudges and have no desire to speak to particular members of the media. Jacksonville Jaguars running back Maurice Jones-Drew is one of those players.
Maurice Jones-Drew and ESPN Blogger, focusing on the AFC South, Paul Kuharsky got into a heated argument and another player had to come in and separate them.
So @Jones_Drew32 & @espn_afcsouth had a “spirited debate” in locker room. What was it about? Pretty much why they hate each other

And, of course, I was up close trying to stir the pot like I always do. @Jones_Drew32 @espn_afcsouth

@liteweightbrad unfortunately, no video. But it got so “spirited” that WR Tobais Palmer came in to break it up

@wemcneal well, simply put: Paul has criticized MJD in the past, and MJD doesn’t like to be criticized

Feel bad for @espn_afcsouth. He has the worst seat in the Jaguars media room today. Not. Even. Close.

All Paul Kuharsky tweeted was about the “Target” line that came out of the debate.
That great line from @Jones_Drew32 came out of a fun, spirited conversation I had with him along w some other other press. #Jaguars
