Former Philadelphia Eagles tackle Jon Runyan cleared to work out - ESPN
Former Philadelphia Eagles right tackle Jon Runyan began running for the first time on his surgically repaired right knee after his surgeon, Dr. James Andrews, medically cleared him to begin putting repetitive pressure on his leg -- with the goal of working out for an NFL team soon. "I'm cleared to do everything," said Runyan, "except hit people. And I'll be able to do that in about two weeks."
NFL.com Blogs " Blog Archive Matt Nagy, a study in contracts "
Nagy’s deal was negated because he already was under contract to an Arena Football League team. And even with the AFL, by various accounts folding/folded, it was a violation of league procedures. The Eagles could try to work out the situation and resubmit the contract, but the team now says it will go "in a different direction."

Mort said in his camp review...
That the Eagles have no plans to sign Runyan and are confident that Justice can fill in for Andrews.

Say what??????
Winstin Justice filling in for Andrews, get the f…k outta here. I know he was an untested rookie in 07 playing in his first start, but no way big red favors him over Runyan. I want Runyan in camp asap before another team signs him. Veteran leadership over an inexperienced back-up any day.

So you would want...
A guy that would pretty much have no conditioning and be playing on one leg over a guy that has taken all the first team reps at training camp?

Yea that is just stupid, the man just got cleared to start working out and you expect him to be in NFL shape in what less than a month. I’ll take Justice over Runyan at least for the next 6-8 months

John Runyan’s a ten-foot tall beast man, who showers in vodka, and feeds his baby shrimp scampi!
At John Runyan’s bachelor party, he ate the entire cake before we could tell him there was a stripper in it!
John Runyan impregnated my wife, and 9 months later she gave birth to a delicious sixteen ounce steak. The afterbirth was sautéed mushrooms!

To the tune of “Washington, Washington” , search it on google and watch the video. Soooooooo Funny!!
“Runyan
Runyan
6 foot 8 weighs a fucking ton
Opponents beware
Opponents beware
He’s coming
He’s coming
He’s coming
Let me lay it on line he had two on the vine
I mean two sets of testicles so divine
On a horse made of crystal he patrolled the land
With the mason ring and schnauzer with his perfect hands
Here comes Jon in control
Women dug his snuff and his gallant stroll
Ate opponents brains and invented cocaine
He’s coming
He’s coming
He’s coming
Runyan
Runyan
Six foot twenty fucking killing for fun
Spread Spread Delaware
He’s coming
He’s coming
He’s coming
Sue me if I go to fast but the sons of his opponents wish he was their dad
Got a wig for his wig got a brain for his heart
He’ll kick you apart
He’ll kick you apart
He’ll save children but not the Dallas children
He’ll save children but not the Dallas children
He’ll save children but not the Dallas children
He’ll save children but not the Dallas children
He had a pocket full of horses fucked the shit out of bears
He threw a knife into heaven
And could kill with a stair
He made love like an eagle falling out of the sky
Killed his sensei in a duel and he never said why
Runyan
Runyan
Twelve stories high made of radiation
The present beware
The future beware
He’s coming
He’s coming
He’s coming
Did I mention his four nuts
Well he also had four dicks
If you took of his boot you’d see the dicks growing of his feet
I heard that motherfucker had like thirty goddamn dicks
He once held the hand of one of his opponent’s wife’s hand in a jar of acid at a party”
"If they end up 2-14 and both of those wins came against Dallas, that's a pretty good year."

i still think the division is ours
the only injuries that i see lingering and benching players is shawn andrews and obviously bradley and ingram. if so, we’re still better on paper than the rats in our division.

Ummm,
if you say so. Just how many would you have to lose before you came down to the rest of us? Karma dude, karma.

To be fair all the injuries are getting a little blown out of proportion we only lost 1 starter and while Stewart Bradley is an impact player we can recover.
Omar Gaither started 7 games his rookie season WILL and IMO played very well, then was named starting MIKE for 2007. He led the team in tackles and QB hurries in 2007 so I’m more than happy with him getting the start at MLB.

exactly
we have yet to see what kind of impact, if any at all, all of these injuries are going to have. as for now, everyone else is forecasted to be ready in carolina except andrews. i’m not worried about karma, BigBlue. how is my thinking that the eagles are still better bad karma?

Do you understand the concept of karma? Saying things like “We have a talented roster” and “I think we can win the Superbowl this year” aren’t examples of things that would cause bad karma.
Now Joe Banner’s thing, THAT could be karmic.

Just the concept of blinking away three key injuries
and blithely saying “oh well, we’re still better than the rats in our division” smacks of hubris. And excessive hubris will impede your ability to complete your dharma, which will negatively impact your karma. Yes, I am aware of the concept.

Lame...
He was a great scrambler but a lousy thrower. He’s been sitting out for 2 yrs. You think he’s the same?! Watch defenses chew him up! Not to mention all the media circus, distractions, protests where ever he goes. Good luck with that…
