After reading this excellent article by Bob Brookover recounting the decision to sign Michael Vick, the ol’ wheels began a spinnin’. Apparently, the Eagles brain trust tabled the Vick question only ten days ago. I assumed it was further back, more like a month, but that...

I’m attempting to steer the conversation back toward actual football. If you still want to vent about the new guy in town, I understand. However, at some point, those of us who haven’t abandoned our loyalty to the entire team need to move on with the impending season. So...

The introduction press conference starring Andy Reid, Tony Dungy and Michael Vick was less than spectacular. The “second chances” card was tossed out at every occasion. Vick declared himself a changed man, wants to be part of the solution, is starting anew, feels the need...

Before I unleash my diatribe, I’d like to relay my opinion on Michael Vick being allowed to play again. I have zero problem with it. To overuse an overused cliché, he served his time. As Andy Reid repeatedly said during his press conference, this is America — America is...

So, Michael Vick is an Eagle. Holy @#$%!!! My initial reaction is, I have no idea what Jeff Lurie, Joe Banner and Andy Reid are thinking. You have a franchise quarterback that you just handed more money in order to make him feel secure and safe. Now, you bring in a guy who just served [...]

If we had to choose a team interested in taking a chance on Vick,
the Eagles would have been pretty far down the list. With Donovan
firmly entrenched as the team's starter for at least the remainder of
this season, and Kevin Kolb still presumably the backup when he returns

Three words: No Catastrophic Injuries.
Is that too much to ask from the Football Gods? The Eagles were offseason darlings. Now they’re a limping mess. We get it. Exhibition games are already difficult to sit through without having to endure the sight of air casts, stretchers...

Tonight will be the first big test for second-year linebacker Joe Mays. Ever since Stew went down with a torn ACL, the questions about Mays’ ability to man the middle of the Eagles defense started. Does he know the scheme? Can he call the proper formations? Is he capable of covering...

So much for sleeping in today. I thought since Eagles‘ camp was all but wrapped up, I could get a little extra shuteye without another mysterious injury popping up. I was sorely mistaken. Now Todd Herremans has what Reid describes as a “stress reaction” in the bone...

Safe to say, wide receiver has been the most talked about and scrutinized position on the Eagles in recent years. Terrell Owens and Freddie Mitchell grabbed most of the headlines, but of interest to me are the lesser names who contributed little to no production during their time in...

Mercifully, the five-alarm fire called Training Camp ‘09 has come to an end for our beloved Eagles. They lost two men, and have a few others still working to return. All in all, it wasn’t as awful as it could have been. Stew’s injury hurts much worse than Ingram&...

The Eagles didn’t take long in finding another signal caller to fill out their depleted roster after Kevin Kolb suffered an MCL sprain. Coaching intern and former Arena League quarterback Matt Nagy was pegged by Reid and Heckert to serve as exhibition game tackling dummy until...

Maybe the Eagles luck is slowly turning. Despite a few bogus reports,(you know who you are) backup quarterback Kevin Kolb did not shred his ACL this morning. Whew! Of course, I realize there are a few haters out there who wish he did (you know who you are). Alas, poor Kev suffered...

Thankfully, Eagles training camp ‘09 ends tomorrow. Maybe heading back to Philly is the remedy for this beat-up team. One can only hope. Today was, well, another typical day:
