Can We All Finally Agree Donovan Needs To Burn In Hell (even you phreak)

[reese125]

[rjs246]

Can we move this thread to the appropriate board please?

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

Merge with "Good Riddance" thread?  Phreak would love that.

I've pretty much been saying what Hoffman is saying from the start. Go me....off a cliff.

recap of mcnabb's presser - i am paraphrasing but it kind of went like this.

boo farging who i was so mistreated;

everyone else failed but me;

i am the next elway;

happy to be on a team that knows how to win;

nice to be somewhere where players want to put the work in:

glad i don't have to worry about a fanbase with any expectations;

[Eagles_Legendz]

If McNabb just made his sentences half as long, there wouldn't be near the animosity towards him.

"I've been treated fairly.............and I don't listen to how the fans treat me because I let it roll off my shoulders".

What would you say to fans?

"Thank you.......for allowing me to show my skills and make a team go from 3-13 to 10 wins every year".

Just shut your mouth after answering the question succinctly and move on to the next question OR come out and be farging honest about how you feel about everything.  He wallows in the middle and it pisses people off.

does anyone have a link for the press conference? PFT supposedly has it but Im having problems there

[ice grillin you]

Other than the part about Kolb being ready (very much yet to be determined)...he hit the nail on the head.

hes saying that hes ready to show if hes ready or not

dan lefevour is not ready to be an nfl starter...kevin cobb is

[Sgt PSN]

riding the bench for another year won't do kolb any good.  he's had 4 years to study the playbook, learn the offense, run the scout team and even get a couple of starts under his belt.  he's as ready to play as you can possibly be.  there's no doubt about that at all.  the question is whether or not he'll be any good. 

[smeags]

kolb is ready. to say otherwise is just silly.

How The 2011 McNabb Pick Can Become A 3rd-Rounder
By now, everyone knows the terms of the Donovan McNabb trade to Philadelphia. The former Eagles stalwart was sent to the division-rival Washington taterskins in exchange for a second-round pick in the upcoming NFL draft (37th overall) and a fourth-round pick in 2011 that can become a third-rounder.

But what exactly are the conditions under which that future fourth-rounder can be bumped up to the third-round?

Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that only one of the following two conditions must be met in order for the draft pick to become a third-round selection.

1. McNabb goes to the Pro Bowl

2. McNabb plays 70 percent of the snaps in Washington and the taterskins win at least nine games.

McNabb went to the Pro Bowl following the 2009 season and has made the all-star game six times in his career.

The fun part of these parameters? Eagles fans can help the team out by voting for McNabb - presumably along with Kevin Kolb - during next year's balloting process.

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

Has voting opened yet?  Kolb wouldn't get to play in the Pro Bowl anyway for obvious reasons, so we should def spend all our effort voting for McNabb.

[Sgt PSN]

i would vote mcnabb to the pro bowl.  not because i think mcnabb should go.  not because it will help the eagles.  i would do it simply because it would farg the taterskins and the thought of actually playing a small, but vital role in the suffering of those half breeds makes me feel all gooey inside.

How many quarterbacks were voted to the Pro Bowl last year? McNabb will get a nod there based soley on name recognition.
