according to a report on profootballtalk.com shawn andrews says he is suffering from depression, and says thgat he is taking meds and could be back at camp on friday.

has anybody watched the 76ers lately? they are one of the hottest teams in the NBA. i'm really impressed about the way they have handled themselves as a team. just a few points i want to make: one , the play of the Andres. Igoudala has really stepped his game up playing like he earned that $57 million extension he signed in the offseason. Sorry Iggy had to get it out there. but seriously, he has played very well showing that he could be more than a No.2 guy. then there is Andre Miller. what can i say about the guy, he has been tremendous, awesome, the glue of this tream and a huge part of their success. he does in the perimeter and in the low-post. he can pass with the best of them and is a great teammate and great team leader. two, Reggie Evans. where did this guy come from? he has been an absolute beast around the floor. getting rebounds getting steals laying his body out on the floor and doing the little things, and bringing a lot of energy coming off the bench. three, sweet Lou. Lou Williams has been a big key coming off the bench and making big shots when it counts. lastly, the rookies. Jason Smith and Thaddeus Young. both have gotten comfortable in their roles as situational players coming off the bench or in the starting rotation. i am really impressed with Thaddeus Young he has really shown that he can handle the NBA game. Jason Smith has got some things to learn still, but can hit that outside jumper and has good hands around the basket and can play defense. overall, i like what he can be. overall, this team is getting better and on the RISE!

You know this whole thing with Fitzgerald is kind of funny. This guy is all about the money, he says he wants to stay in Arizona, and that's great for him. But, let's get realistic what are the Cards really doing that it makes any difference. they took too long getting Fitz his money to save cap space for that excuse of an organization, they didn't get Faneca like they wantde to, they really won't re-sign Johnson, their FA wideout, and they don't have enough money to sign any draft picks if they're any good. So to Larry Fitzgerald," take your dirty money you big girl and enjoy living in Arizona where it is always hot and you will never win a championship. But, there is a chance the Eagles can take your other half Aquan Boldin, where he will have a chance to win big and when I mean BIG I mean the Lombardi Trophy. Enjoy being unsuccessful, until you're 28 and trophy/ ring-less. E-A-G-L-E-S Eagles!

In the words of Michael Scott of "The Office": " We're no longer on the playground", now is the time for the Eagles young linebacker to bring their A+ game. They need to have their presence show up on the field on Sudays. Now I can't wait for Jim Johnson to show his genius for these young guys in his playbook.

Being a die-hard Eagles fan, I really try to keep myself up to date on the ins and outs of the off-season and the regular, and in my opinion Eagles fans should look onto Gary Cobb's website gcobb.com. he has in-depth analysis with his son, and Micah Warren. they have some fans write in and they post a lot of good stuff and give their opinion on different topics not just on the Eagles but on the whole league and a lot of baseball and the Phillies. So if anyone would like to be a part of that, and really like to know what's going on with our lovable team because GCobb gets the lockerroom insight being a former player. he also has video on Youtube.com
