When the season is over ...

Whodie126 — Mon, 24 Nov 2008 23:19:19 -0000

and we look back at this there will be 2 possibilities. If we turn things around and do well throughout the end of the season this will have been the wake up call. If we do not and continue to suck, this will be the driving steak that ruined our teams moral and our season. Either way I for one think it was a wise decision, I've played competitively in sports throughout my entire life and have coached as well, I've been benched and I've benched players. I have been a Donovan supporter for EVER I truly think he is something special. If I have one issue it's that I doubt his hunger. I know he is good, I know he can win, but sometimes I doubt his drive. Thursday will answer that question for me and I for one hope that my perception of McNabb is incorrect in that sense and he comes out with a chip on his shoulder and puts on a clinic.

I cannot stand the posts about fire Reid, trade McNabb, we've heard it all before and when push comes to shove Andy and McNabb have done more for us then we care to realize. Yes maybe we need a change but let's not be irrational, firing Andy now only dooms us further for the season. Trading McNabb is idiotic he is still top 5 QB in the NFL. I will not reply to anymore of those ridiculous posts or comments as I feel it is coming from straight emotion and not rational thinking. Please if you think otherwise feel free to offer some intelligent insight. I feel as though we owe it to both of these men the chance to prove this is just a slump, I guess I'm just saying shut the fuck up and let's finish out the season with the personell we have now and go from there.

When the season is over ...

In my absence

Whodie126 — Tue, 18 Nov 2008 03:36:13 -0000

So I have been MIA the past 2 weeks partly because of my inability to hold down my lunch even reading anything remotely Eagles after the Giants game and second I've been extremely busy with work. Anyway here are a few of my thoughts after the past 2 weeks.

- We can play with any team, but we cannot beat any team

- Our defense has heart, and pride, our offense has neither.

- I'm tired of defending Andy Reid, with that said ...

- I don't need to hear 'Bench McNabb' or 'Fire Andy' anymore we get it, now let's focus on what we have to work with right now and actually talk some football.

- When our Defense spends the majority of the time on the field they will give up points, its not that hard to understand or blame them for.

- If we cannot run the ball, we should work on the running game and not just throw more

- We need to install the bomb from the movie 'Speed' to Andy and Donovan making them go full speed for the entire game, so they actually show some urgency.

- I'm tired of getting pumped up for games every week because I KNOW we have superior talent and watching it wasted.

- I hate reading Negadelphian posts and I am fighting every urge to become one

- A tie is like kissing your sister, I feel sick

- This team was in control of it's own destiny, but not anymore and I wasn't 100% they could do it without help so now I'm even more skeptical.

- Just once will someone on the team walk up and smack that fucking shit eating grin off of McNabbs face when he makes a mistake.

- My Phillies World Series high is officially dead.

- And finally, we need some accountability, and Andy saying things like "I need to do a better job putting players ... blah blah blah" is not accountability it is bullshit.

Now I hate the Spurs with every fiber of my being but this was pretty funny.

Westbrook sucks

Whodie126 — Mon, 06 Oct 2008 00:43:32 -0000

Okay do I have your attention. First off I do NOT think that Westbrook sucks I think that he is one of the greatest to ever play the game. But after last weeks loss a lot of people were ready to shoot Buckhalter for a "poor" showing. Westbrook was 12 for 33 yards this week 1 TD and got stopped on a short goal line run which we all said he would have made against the Bears. Correll was 16 for 66 yards 1 TD against the bears and got stopped on a goal line play. I'm interested if these same people are willing to say that Westbrook sucks after they were so quick to jump on Bucky. I am very bitter about this game and think that the play calling was horrible and something needs to change. I don't know what but something but I also think we as fans are to quick to jump on certian players and we need to step back and realize that maybe we just aren't that good as a TEAM.

And yes I know Westy was "hurt" but he was good enough to play and I have seen him do more when he has been "hurt" so please don't use that as an argument for saying Buck Sucks.

TO is an idiot but we all knew that.

TO being TO

Is TO being serious in this interview because he's got to be on drugs.

When asked about how it seemed Philly dominated the NFC East when he was an Eagle, much as the Cowboys are doing now, Owens suggested it was largely because he had changed teams. "The common denominator was me being in both places, but I will let you make that assessment," he said.

I take issue with several items, first you played for the Eagles for 2 years and that's a stretch because you only played in 7 games in 2005. Yes 2004 we did go to the superbowl BUT YOU DIDN'T EVEN PLAY IN A PLAYOFF GAME UNTIL THE SB so we made it there without you.

Next, we won the NFC East in 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2006 so we won it 3 years before you got here and only 1 out of the 2 years you were here and then the year after you left ... hmmm The common denominator was you not being here IMO.

Finally, the Giants won the division in 05 and the Eagles in 06 and the Cowboys in 07, tell me again how that is the Cowboys dominating the NFC East. This whole article is ridiculous.

Thought it interesting that Lito is not only second string but he is backing up Sheldon and not Asante.

Smarty Marty seems to like DJ ... I might be getting to excited but I was blown away by this kids pre season ... maybe I set the bar really really really low for him but he made me happy he is wearing midnight green.
