If you like to whine, you sure don't.

the FO loves the "just move on people" they are the ones who don't hold anyone accountable for their terrible decisions. i mean, it's done right, just move on.

EXACTLY

and its amazing how many minions go along with it

like people are going to stop being upset by arguably the greatest eagle ever leaving for no reason whatsoever LESS THAN 30 DAYS after it happened

I'm not one of those people when it comes to decisions that actually could improve the team.

Dawkins had a couple of bright spots last year but was mostly a liability. They can sign him back when they need a mascot.

saying it was a good move by the team is misguided but an opinion that can be respected...telling people who are upset with it to shut up or get over it is banneresque douchbaggery at its finest

When is the statute of limitations for you to get over it? If you're still whining about it once the season starts, will it still be "banneresque" to tell you to shut it? How about this time next year? How about when Dawkins is literally dead?

FF is a Sheep,

There isn't a single reason why the Eagles shouldn't have kept him, except that they're completely oblivious. There isn't a single reason why he should still be playing, except that Denver parked a dump truck full of money in front of his house. We should rehash this for another thirty pages.

The thought occurred to me that it's possible teams like the Eagles are saving money in preparation for a possible lockout in 2010. I'm not saying it would happen or not, just that it could be a mindset.

Pedal to the Metal, Gold Standard and such

I will not get over the Dawk thing because it was Brian Dawkins who they cornholed. They set precedent with Douglas and Trotter and to a lesser extent Taylor, Vincent and guys like that. But I though there would be no way they'd run Dawk's ass outta town and that is essentally what they did. Ran him out on the first thing smokin'.

Now Reid and Lurie talk about him like they love him and want to keep him all the while Banner and Roseman sit on mounds of cash and say they gave him a fair offer.

It's how football works. Joe farging Montana didn't retire as a 49er

I'll never get over it, though crying in my Buddy Ryan-shaped pillow sometimes softens the blow.
