Baskett Released

by yomjoseki on Sep 15, 2009 2:52 PM EDT Comment 26 comments

The Philadelphia Eagles have released Hank Baskett in order to make room for Michael Vick to come off the exempt list and begin practicing with the team. Everyone say goodbye to Kendra. This is per Adam Schefter's Twitter account. Best of luck Hank, to you and whoever you drop passes for in the future. Although you were a good special teamer :/

This ends the speculation that the Eagles were going to trade him, because no one was willing to part with any Slim Jims.

Nope, so much for thinking that the F.O. wouldn't be lowballed...

Teams didn’t offer anything for him.

Viva México! Go Cowboys!

why would they

everyone knew he was going to get cut if he wasnt traded, and i bet there arent 10 teams now jumping at trying to sign him now

just like what happened with AJ Feeley

RIP JJ & HK
Let the future judge Michael Vick

Well to be fair

they didn’t know WHO was going to be cut. Could’ve been Brown, Baskett or one of our fringe defensive backs or linemen.

Although now that I say that, anyone who knows the Eagles knows they love QBs, OL, DL and CBs, and everything else can be had later

Still waiting for the Eagles to Bring It Home For Jerome

i would have loved if big red said if no one wants him than no one get him

and cut dimitri or some guy who is never gonna crack the 45 active man roster

RIP JJ & HK

Wow.

I though t they would bluff longer. No one was biting.

This is the right move though, Vick needs to practice bro. If he expects to be ready by week 3.

Also, what do we do once Donovan is better?

Bleed green, or don't bleed at all!

Definitely not a QB

Thats a great idea for the playoffs. I was very happy when they did that two years ago.

For right now though, not so much.

About 10 minutes ago, I was pondering my own existence. Then I decided that it didn't matter.

by IronHank on Sep 16, 2009 4:09 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs

seriously

cant someone else long snap .. someone we can actually use in a game .. im sure a lineman could learn how

by jack is better than asante on Sep 16, 2009 5:03 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs

No one? Kolb is our backup and Vick is our third QB/trick pony/future trade bait.

I am the people's troll :3™

I always like hanky panky

i thought he had potential as a redzone threat being our biggest reciever

To me the Eagles are like that girlfriend that pisses u off, then u hate her, but the next morning you wake up and remember that thing u love so much about her
