COLLEGE STATION, Texas -- Johnny Manziels NFL pro day had a former president, lots of swag, a Drake soundtrack and even some football, too. Nico Hoerner Jersey . The 2012 Heisman Trophy winner threw for 75 officials from 30 teams on the Texas A&M campus Thursday. He also had some special guests, as former President George H.W. Bush and wife Barbara -- and her two dogs -- rolled into the facility on golf carts about 10 minutes into the workout. The always flashy Manziel was true to his over-the-top Johnny Football persona, trotting into the facility with his receivers as a tune by his buddy Drake blasted through the building. He wore camouflage shorts, a black Nike jersey with his white No. 2 and caused a stir by wearing shoulder pads and a helmet. Manziel didnt understand why it was a big deal. "You play the game in shoulder pads on Sundays," he said. "Why not come out and do it? ... For me it was a no-brainer." Manziel threw about 65 passes to six receivers, including A&M teammate Mike Evans, who like Manziel is expected to be a first round pick in the May draft. Only two passes werent caught and Evans grabbed a third long pass out of bounds. "I felt like it was good," Manziel said. "(I) was obviously going for perfection. So had a couple balls hit the ground. One was on me. One was a little bit high. I couldve got it down for him a little bit." Quarterback guru George Whitfield ran the workout. Manziel has worked with Whitfield throughout his career and has spent a big chunk of the last 2 1/2 months working with him in California. Whitfield raved about his competitiveness. "This wasnt just merely a set of routes that he was just going to go through and throw," Whitfield said. "It just feels like ... life is riding on every pass with him." Eight NFL general managers and eight head coaches were among the group, including Texans general manager Rick Smith and coach Bill OBrien. Houston has the top overall pick in the draft. Smith and OBrien liked what they saw from Manziel, but both cautioned that this is just one step in a long process. "He made the throws that you look for and that you wanted to see so it was good," Smith said. "Its just a part of it and it was impressive." Manziel, who started at A&M for two seasons, planned to meet with several teams on Thursday afternoon after the workout. Several coaches were impressed that Manziel called all the NFL officials onto the field at the end of his workout to personally thank them for coming. "College Stations a little bit of a tricky spot to get to," he said. "For me to call those guys up, just wanted to speak on my behalf as well as the six guys behind me and thank them for coming out." Tampa Bay coach Lovie Smith, who grew up in Big Sandy, Texas, enjoyed seeing Bush at the event. "Thats a first, a workout with an ex-president," Smith said. "But they do things a little differently in Texas, which is a good thing, me being a Texan." Bush sat in his golf cart during the event and posed for pictures with dozens of people afterward. But Secret Service agents shooed away reporters looking to talk to the 41st president. Manziel said he didnt notice when Bush came in. "No," he said. "I was trying to go 65 for 65." Several more Drake songs played after his introductory one and he looked loose during the workout, at times bobbing his head, covered in the matte black helmet, to the beats. There was a brief hitch in the playlist, though. When he began the workout the explicit and expletive-laden versions of the songs were played. When the 89-year-old Bush entered the building, the soundtrack quickly switched to an edited version of the same songs. He worked under centre, making throws of all distances, on the run and in the pocket. Whitfield added some challenges to the workout, waving a broom and chasing him with it on several throws. "We wanted to show that we didnt have anything to hide, that we could come out here and go through our seven-step footwork and go through all the footwork that we thought that these guys want to see," Manziel said. He finished the day with a long completion to Evans and yelled Boom! and the assembled crowd broke into applause. Whitfield was pleased with how the day went and thinks Manziel has improved since the end of the season. "He learned how big of a jump it is to go from playing on Saturdays to playing on Sundays and its a grueling process," Whitfield said. "Secondly hes come an awfully long way in his body. Hes an awful lot stronger. Hes put in his work." Jonathan Lucroy Jersey . Marek Hamsik, who had earlier missed a penalty, headed Napoli in front in the 23rd minute and Pandev added a second goal five minutes from halftime. Alessandro Matri got Juventus back into the game just after the break but Pandev was on hand to score again in the 68th.

It might be one edge that Green Bay could have ahead of Sundays playoff game against the warm-weather Dallas Cowboys at Lambeau Field.Ball security is at a premium in the playoffs. Receivers — and the defensive backs trying to snare interceptions — must be prepared for the sting that comes with trying to catch a cold ball.I think whoever handles the ball best in the cold is going to come up on top. I think we definitely have the advantage, Packers cornerback and special teams ace Jarrett Bush said.At the same time, it is football, and youve got to line up and prove it between the white lines.The forecast Sunday calls for partly cloudy skies with highs in the low 20s. Thats downright balmy compared to the arctic front that encased Green Bay at midweek, when temperatures hovered near zero.To top it off, a snowstorm that was supposed to dump 3 to 4 inches of snow on the area started just before practice began Thursday, forcing McCarthy to move the team indoors for the whole session.It warmed up, but only slightly, which was fine by McCarthy. The Packers were even able to get the temperature inside the facility to about 22 degrees, which would be roughly the high temperature for Sunday.I feel like we got done what we needed to get done these two days, McCarthy said. We were able to get the wind direction changed, so we felt like it was pretty close to what the conditions will be that were playing in on Sunday.Though not nearly as cold as when the teams last met in Green Bay in the post-season — the 1967 NFL championship dubbed the Ice Bowl after being played in brutally cold conditions.It was minus 13 for that game at kickoff. Its not supposed to be that chilly this weekend, though its not exactly weather familiar to some Cowboys, either.According to STATS, the Cowboys are 11-13 since 1991 in games played in with the temperature lower than 40 degrees. Benito Santiago Jersey. Their most recent game in that category: Dec. 4, when Dallas beat Chicago 41-28 at Soldier Field.It comes down to what is your resistance to the cold, how much can you tolerate it, Cowboys cornerback Brandon Carr said. This game, this time of the season, get comfortable. ... Just be comfortable to be at your best.For defensive end Jeremy Mincey, that means sticking with his usual routine of wearing sleeves.Packers guard T.J. Lang said hes going with extra-long elbow sleeves, while receiver Davante Adams is going with bare arms.No sleeves. Never sleeves, the Packers rookie said. Yeah, we dont wear sleeves in the wideout room.But there is more to preparation than making fashion choices.Carr said its important to be fast and light. He wants to stay warm without wearing too many layers. Hell check the condition of the heated field before the game for footing.Bring multiple pairs of clears out, detachables, nubs, long studs, short studs, whatever, Carr said. Just check the field and the footing and see if its soft or it can hold up to up to the studs.Dallas, 8-0 on the road this season, clearly plays well away from home no matter the conditions. McCarthy downplayed any talk of having a cold-weather advantage.I think footballs football. Im not counting the weather, he said.One Cowboy familiar with Midwest winters is quarterback Tony Romo, who grew up in Burlington, in southeastern Wisconsin, and played college ball at Eastern Illinois.Romo is 3-5 as a starter in games played when the temperature dipped below 40. Dont forget that the Cowboys also play in cold weather late in the season if they have road games against NFC East rivals New York, Philadelphia and Washington.It can affect you if you havent played in it before and if youre not prepared, Romo said. For us, well just put our head down and go to work, like we always do.___Online: http://pro32.ap.org/poll and http://twitter.com/AP_NFL___AP Sports Writer Schuyler Dixon in Dallas contributed to this report.___Online: http://pro32.ap.org/poll and http://twitter.com/AP_NFL ' ' '
