  • Questions received about the “DRAFT VALUE”

    So I’ve been hearing numerous questions about the Draft, and the Draft Value.  Well Mike Florio over at ProFootballTalk.com came out with a great little tidbit about it.  I will post it below.  First off, I am not one for trading up, I love our position that we are in and I say we do…

  • Brian Westbrook thumbs up for drafting a RB

    Brian Westbrook says he would have “no problem” with the Eagles drafting a running back to help him shoulder the load. Glad to see he is fine with this and voicing his opinion.  Sure makes things easier for the FO.  After losing Buckhalter to free agency it is a NEED that we get someone in…

  • Going to your first Hockey game?

  • Fly Guys clinch a spot as well.

    So Tuesday night I took my brother to the game for his 33rd birthday. Was a great game, dollar pretzel night and they ended up selling over 11,000 pretzels (CRAZY!).

  • So the 76ers clinch a playoff berth but..

    How long do we think they will last? What do they need to do in order to get this team to that next level. They have skill, and they are young but all in all its going to be difficult to go up against a team like Boston / Orlando / Cleveland and thats saying…

  • Well it wasn’t pretty but they pulled it off

    Well last night was not a pretty win for the Phillies at all but they managed to pull off their 1st win of the season. There ya go Champs, now hopefully this can get the ball rolling for us. The good thing about it was that yet again the Phills came back from being down…

  • Phillies 0-2 with 160 left…. Boo yourself!

    So 610 last night was rather comical. I was driving back to the lovely “Poconos” after getting out of the Flyers game (clinched a playoff good stuff) when I hear lovely Ike Reese talking about the Phillies. Wow man come on Ike, its 2 games. Really just 2 games theres 160 left, you act as…

  • Westbrook wanting Ocho?

    “Eagles running back Brian Westbrook says he would welcome Chad Ocho Cinco to the Eagles. Westbrook says the players and coaches know how to handle someone who is a little more high-maintenance.”  ESPN.com reports Do it B-West make it happen.  Lets make this happen man.  But lets try to keep it cheap?  Thanks!

  • Eagles take a look at Pat White…ugh..

    Ok so let me start of by posting the column “West Virginia quarterback Pat White will conduct a private workout with the Philadelphia Eagles today, from Scout.com.” So yeah, ugh why?  I understand that this kid is an “ATHLETE” but lets be honest here.  Lets break this down, and of course I very well could…
