The 2007 Offseason Thread

They'd probably have the oldest starting tandem of safeties in the league if they signed Darius.

So sure, why not?

Get him!

[Zanshin]

Dawkins           +             Darius = Football BONER

If it were 2001.  This year it would be more of a semi.

z0MG SINE HIM!

[ThirdStreetMafia]

I'd be super shoked if the eagles sign him... the eagles (reguardless of our opinions) seem pretty hyped about mickell and shoot-me-up sean considine

FALSE RUMORS CIRCULATE OF WESTBROOK CRASH

Several readers have advised us of rampants rumors that Eagles running back Brian Westbrook has badly injured his leg in a motorcycle accident.

Fear not, Eagles fans.  A league source tells us that there was no accident, and that Westbrook is fine.

It's amazing how quickly these things can spread (e.g., Terry Bradshaw is dead) in this age of instantaneous digital information.  This time around, we're glad that we checked with someone who knows what's happening before we posted the rumor.

Then again, this is a rumor mill. . . .

[Diomedes]

 no thanks on Darius.

[Rome]

Gold.  Standard.

[Diomedes]

how many of those chicks would you hit?

[rjs246]

Where's Baldy McHasnodad?

No black softball players on team Lurie

[MDS]

Lurie is a good player, actually. I wonder if the Eagles team could beat Lurie's synogouge softball team.

Grossman likely not laughing over 'joke'

Tribune staff report

The first time he mentioned the idea of Donovan McNabb playing for the Bears—and winning a Super Bowl—the media throng gathered around him let it go. Same for the second time ... and the third.

But by the time Bears defensive lineman Tommie Harris had floated the idea of Mt. Carmel's McNabb joining the Bears and ending their long Super Bowl championship hibernation, it was too much to let go. (Audiblizing an idea a half-dozen times will have that effect.)

Speaking this weekend from Philadelphia, where Harris was a guest of McNabb's at the quarterback's charity golf tournament, the D-lineman had this to say: "I'd love to have [McNabb] as my quarterback in Chicago. ... Hopefully, he comes here and helps the Chicago Bears win the Super Bowl. ... If he comes to Chicago, we'll definitely win the Super Bowl. ... He's my friend and I would like him to play on my team. ... I'd love him to play for the Bears."

He just kept going.

And Harris wasn't done, capping his comments with, "Hopefully we get Donovan."

Harris backtracked on Saturday on WSCR-AM 670, saying he was kidding and if incumbent starter Rex Grossman was offended, Harris would apologize.

That'll be five or six of them by last count.

And so the story gains steam again 

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

Let's face it - even McNabb's biggest haters would admit he'd be a huge upgrade over any QB that's taken a snap in Chicago since... damn... McMahon?  Most people would say he'd immediately be the best QB EVER to play in Chicago.
