With the way the Birds have carried on of late (last four years) and Andy’s stubborn Ground Hog day-like habits and Donovan’s all together bad habits and Dawkins being done like he was and Westbrook believing that he’s next to get the friendly boot and the wildly charasmatic succes of our World F’n Champion Phils, could anyone REALLY give a rat’s ass about this type of stuff?

Just wondering.

ok with all due respect to a fellow eagles fan, i don’t believe the “football town” statement by JasonB. As of right now this is a Baseball town because the Baseball team happens to be the one’s that have most recently brought a title to this town. But even before that i believe philadelphia has been a SPORTS TOWN which makes us different from the rest.

as for tuck, if the giants are the team to beat, what does that make the eagles? as stated above we did beat them twice…in their house…oh and wasn’t one of those an all important playoff game? who cares who’s left the eagles. ok dawkins was a great player and his leadership will be missed but maybe it is time for a change. i love dawkins always have always will but he kinda took away some of what we could do on defense. he slowed a lil bit this year which caused alot of problems for the blitz. maybe it’s time to get back to that speedy linebacker blitz that worked so well in the past. it hurts to see him go but can you blame for the change? we didn’t exactly win the superbowl with him so why not try it without him? other than that who did we really lose that wasn’t expendable? tra was a good guy but also on the downside. runyan good guy but close to the downside. let’s get some young fresh faces that can step in with fresher legs against guys that while thomas and runyan both did a great job against our opponents, why not get younger, stronger, faster, healthier players in there that we can mold into whatever we want. i think the release of these players and the hopeful acquisition of new talent makes the eagles more dangerous. we can go out and get people and run our offense and defense however we want. players aren’t gunna play for the team for 100 years here. this is the reality of football. if the guys we lost retired it would hurt the exact same. besides it’s not like dawkins or thomas went to the giants or cowboys.
