'Cheeseburger', aka Cody, passes test
Associated Press
WESTMINSTER, Md. -- A day late and quite short of breath, rookie defensive tackle Terrence Cody passed his conditioning test Wednesday and formally launched his NFL career with the Baltimore Ravens.
Cody, a 350-pounder out of Alabama, twice failed the test Tuesday. The drill consists of running 25 yards, doubling back, resting for 70 seconds and repeating it twice.
"It's down and back, down and back, down and back. It's not complicated [but] it's a tough test," Ravens coach John Harbaugh said. "You've got to go out there and compete."
Cody conquered the drill on Wednesday morning at 7 a.m. and was removed from the Physically Unable to Perform list before participating in his first NFL training camp practice. (continued at link)

Really? All he had to do was run 150 yards with 70 a second rest every 50 yards. Don't our guys run 7 100 yard sprints for their conditioning test.
