Let's talk football (the American version)

[Troy]

LT is a-ok with me. Speaks his mind, shuts up and plays when he needs to.

Is making the playoffs good enough for Eagles fans? I don't think so. It's a set up for disappointment. Making the playoffs with Donovan on crutches again and no Garcia on the bench doesn't look good to me.

Speaking of Garcia, he's in Tampa now and he reminds me of Gannon late in his career too. Heady, gutsy and obsessed. Him and Chucky seem like a good match. I think tampa will be much improved this year.

I spent a year in Albuquerque, which is really just a continuation of West Texas. Hardcore Cowgirl country there. They deserve TO and all his retarded douchebaggery. And Swish, Jerry Jone's ass is not fat. He looks like he's been dining at Bergen Belsen.

GM must live in . . . Houston? Minnesota? Buffalo?

And who is this LT person you mention? Did you mean to say TO? If so, I don't know what you're smokin', but he's one of the biggest malcontents in the league. A gifted received but a total head-case, even worse than Randy Moss.

As for A. J. Feeley, he was a bust in Miami, but that was a very different kind of offense and he was doomed to fail there. Back in '02 he did an excellent job in the playoffs when McNabb got hurt, ala Garcia, and he's bigger, younger and stronger than Garcia, who sealed his fate by making unreasonable contract demands, so the Eagle's did what they had to do. They wanted him back, but he drew a line in the sand and that was that. Philly was a perfect spot for him, not so in Tampa. Watch and see if I'm right. Feeley has a much better upside than Garcia, assuming in a reserve role.

LT= Ladanian Tomlinson. It was in reference to Rich.

Not like that should come as a surprise to anyone here. I though you were responding to my comment about TO and typed LT by mistake. I certainly like Ladanian Tomlinson! He's the complete package and with a good head on his shoulders. Still can't believe they fired the coach after a 14-2 season, regardless of what happened in the playoffs. That was just STOOPID!

Ok, I'm an idiot

Don't sell yourself short dude.

Images of Walter Payton came to mind when I was watching LT on local TV here last week. Sweetness is a topic in and of himself though...

Eagles should be NFC champs this season. Not because they're all that much better this year but rather because the rest of the NFC sucks. Okay, the Saints got some talent but they look like a joke compared to most of the playoff AFC teams. It's their's (Philly) to lose IMO.

Speaking of which I think we're in a transition now. The Patriots/Chargers/Colts/Broncos are getting old. I would say it's the last of the AFC dominance if the NFC wasn't so damn weak.
Jets are still a quarterback away. Titans will be contenders soon but not this year.

My SB prediction: Chargers 41 - Eagles 27

Where do I start?

Feely is a bum. I don't care how bad the program was in Miami. Loser who may someday rise a notch above mediocrity as he gets old and wise.

Garcia "drew the line in the sand" because he wants to start. He will start in Tampa, he's much better than any of their other QBs. On a team with McNabb he knew he'd never get the chance.

The Giants get all the airtime because they are a NYC team. The Jets don't because they have never gotten any respect in NY. NY is an NFC town. Yeah, Coughlin is the worst coach to get his job back in a very long time. He may as well have LOSER stamped on his forehead. Manning will never flower as long as he's the coach.

The Seabags are in decline and AZ and SF are on the rise. AZ may be the sleeper pick for this year. Yeah, the Tennessee Tuxedos too. Much improved.

The Pats age thing: I'm not questioning the will to win, I just think it's a lot more likely that your gonna see injuries deplete this team.

TO is an alligator-armed douchebag of gargantuan proportions. As a SF guy, I laughed and warned all the Eagles fans. I wouldn't wish him on the Cowgirls . . . oh wait . . . ! I would never say anything positive about him.
