McNabb on NFL Network, NFL Live, SportsCenter, etc.

I want the dude to stop taking every goddamned interview request that ESPN throws his way. I want him to have enough balls to get in a teammate's face and learn how to fire people up because his goofy ass aproach to leadership seems to be losing its effectiveness. Most of all I want him to stop whining about how hard everything is on him. No one wants to hear it and it makes him come off as soft ass soft.

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

He is moving on. What wingspan said is what I've said for the past couple of days...when he doesn't speak he is ripped. When he does speak, he's ripped. What do you want the guy to do!?!?!?!?

I wanted him to get the Owens ish out of his system months ago and move on.  Now, he's speaking out during Super Bowl week, when he has no business doing so, and he looks like a little bitch who can't let anything go.  If he was going to take the "high road" and not respond in kind, then he should have stuck to that, instead of letting it fester and going off on a week that should be about the Seahawks & Steelers.

i think we all know what Donovan needs. 

we find a homless guy in Philly, put an Owens jersey on him, and let Donny beat him to death. 

Donny gets it out of his system, there's one less homeless person in Philly.  everybody wins.

[Wingspan]

WAH

1. He is contractually obliged to give 3 interviews this week. It is in his Campbells contract (I read that in the Inky, by the way). One on ESPN. One on NFL Network and the one with writers present.

2. He didn't speak out months ago because he didn't feel it was right. He took TO's shots publicly but didn't fire back. I guess he thought he didn't need to add to the he said-he said drama in the press. I liked that he bit his tongue during the season. You don't need that shtein. Season = football time. Not goddamn drama class. He's getting it out now. Who gives two shteins if it is Super Bowl week? I don't.

So he gave his 3 interviews and he's been rehabbing. He'll go back to Philly to work with the guys there and then go to ARZ with the receivers and others.

[Wingspan]

Who gives two shteins if it is Super Bowl week? I don't.

me neither.

and if he had said this "months" ago, right in the middle of the season, the same people would whine about it then, saying now is not the time.

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

He'll go back to Philly to work with the guys there and then go to ARZ with the receivers and others.

I'm really excited to see what he and Reggie can do in 2006-2007.  That's what he should have talked about in his interviews.. possibilities for the upcoming season.

Wow...did I miss that on ESPN? Is that where you got it, Bobby?

Go to the ESPN site--it's a L-O-O-N-N-G interview transcript.

You got that right. I can hear it in my head now...

"What is McNabb thinking saying this now?!?!?! The season is in the shteinter and he's worried about blasting TO? Some leader, this bum is!"

Or if he said it during TC then it would've been "We're trying to win a SB and McNabb is feeding TO more ammo!"

Damned if he does, damned if he doesn't.

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

No, he's pretty much just damned if he does... and he finally did.

T.O. is still under his skin.  I guess that's what pisses me off the most.

[dis12]

EVERYONE in the Eagles organization should just shut the F up and worry about playing football!!  If I wanted a circus soap opera crap, I'd turn on TV.
The Birds have enuff work to do this year, we don't need more of a media circus than we had last year.

arrrrgh!

[Feva]

No, he's pretty much just damned if he does... and he finally did.

T.O. is still under his skin.  I guess that's what pisses me off the most.

How could he not be when everyone and their momma still considers them synonomous with each other?  Nobody's asking him about Reggie Brown.  Nobody's asking him about John Runyan.  Hell, they only ask him about his groin as a buffer to get to the T.O. shtein.

Well then, he should do what he USUALLY does, and change the subject:

"I don't want to talk about Owens.  I'm done with him.  Let's talk about Reggie farging BROWN."

I call B.S. if you say he had no choice but to talk about it.  Big-time B.S.

I call BS if you really think that'll work.  C'mon man... we've all seen these media folks in action.  They're like rabid dogs when the get hold of a "story".  Hell, I'm PART of the media and I've seen it done countless times... even specifically with T.O.

"Yeah, Donovan... we look forward to what you and Reggie can do next year.  How do you think things would have gone if you had both Terrell and Reggie to get the ball to?" - and you're right back at it.

Did he have a choice? Can't say that he didn't.  But it's not like it's just a switch that you can turn off and the media backs off of it.

[ice grillin you]

the media hasnt been able to get shtein out of donovan in seven years of post game news conferences...but now the media is forcing him to talk about TO??...sorry but you cant have it both ways


as much as andy frustrates the hell out of me with his public attitude you have to somewhat repsect the fact that hes never changed and has stuck to his guns....mcnabb can do the same any time he wants...this time he chose not too
