J.Walker in town?

[RezRob]

WIP (Cuz) just said Javon Walker was in town last night. I know it's WIP, but for a rumor it's got potential.

I have it on good authority that Javon Walker IS at the NovaCare facility this morning.

No shtein? I saw Hollis boarding a plane to Wisconsin with a 3rd round pick in his carry on bag.

This rumor started lastnight on the EMB. Some guy with 2 posts said he spotted Walker at the baggage terminal at the Philadelphia Airport. The TATE ran with it and you know the rest. He's still a Packer unless we trade for him.

you did it wrong

[Zanshin]

Really?  Because I heard that the Eagles sent Mike Quick and a scout to Florida in search of the fountain of youth.  Wow, if they get Walker and a 22-year-old quick, we'd be set.  I'm psyched.

Really I live in GB area and I heard a large black man set off the metal detector trying to clear the gate, then he shut down the "Emperor's Buffet" single-handedley.

They might just be re-signing Grady Jackson.

They might just be re-signing Grady Jackson.

The metal might have been his surgically implanted steel replacement heart valves, and colon.

RUMORS FLY OF WALKER TO PHILLY



Talk radio in Philadelphia is abuzz with reports that disgruntled Packers receiver Javon Walker is on his way to town to meet with Eagles officials regarding a possible trade that would make him the new No. 1 wideout, a spot that used to be filled by a disgruntled receiver who was released on Tuesday.



Although we prefer mongering rumors to shooting them down, we can report with a high degree of confidence that this one ain't happening.



How do we know?  First, a source with knowledge of the situation tells us that it's not happening.  Second, Walker is still under contract with the Packers.  Before he could talk to another team, the Packers would have to give him permission to attempt to work out a trade.  Typically when such permission is given, the dude's agent crows about it in order to shake as many interested parties as possible out of the bushes (or, as they say in some parts, the "booshes").



So the rumors are wrong.  (Gosh, it genuinely pains us to say that.)

Come on... It was some random "limo driver". I'm gonna call Mike Miss and tell him that I gave Brian Urlacher a piggy back ride from Chicago to the Novacare complex. Maybe he'll believe me.

this is absolutely not true....ive been listening all morning and havent heard it mentioned a single time...i could have missed it but its certainly not the buzz of wip right now

[Zanshin]

Damn.  Well, at least we have that Mike Quick/fountain of youth thing to fall back on.  Would have been nice to have both, though.

[Rome]

You've been listening to WIP all morning?

Ha... and you say I'm brainwashed.
