Much better for him than the Rams, I think. Get some real grass under him for whatever play(s) he's on the field.

The man. The myth. The legend.

I can't believe he'd rather be in San Fran than St. Louis.  St. Louis is awesome!

I'll give it up to the St. Louis blues district, but other then that have you spent any time in that God forsaken hole? Nobody, I mean nobody lives down town and God forbid you need a cab! other then the arch and the new Card stadium, that place is a speed bump in MA!

So the Eagles get to see Westy in Week 5, provided that he's still healthy by then. Too bad it's not a home game, it'd be great to hear him introduced at the Linc one more time.

I'm pleased with where he ended up. The Rams are gonna suck, and his other options were Washington and Dallas.

Clyde Simmons is a coach with the Jets. I did not know that.

I heard Reggie White just got a job with the Angels.  Or was it the Devils?

Kevin Turner has ALS, or that post-concussion thing that imitates it.  Either way, sucks.

QuoteChargers' Tra Thomas retiring

Three-time Pro Bowl left tackle Tra Thomas is retiring.

Thomas, 35, said Saturday that he has decided to leave the game because he can longer play at the level he expects from himself.

He recently had arthroscopic knee surgery and he said he hasn't performed well during this camp.

He signed with San Diego in June as a possible replacement for Marcus McNeill, who is holding out.

"I was just watching film and I don't think I was playing as well in practice as I should be," said Thomas, who entered the NFL as a first-round pick of Philadelphia in 1998. "If I'm not playing well in practice, I'm not going to play up to my standard in a game ... I feel very good about the decision. I 'm going out on my own terms. At least, I know I gave it everything I could."

Thomas played with Jacksonville last season after spending 10 seasons with the Eagles.

He said he appreciates the chance San Diego gave him, but he thought it was best to leave the game.

"I could have milked it for a year," Thomas said. "But I have too much respect for the game to do that."

With McNeill holding out, the Chargers will start Brandyn Dombrowski at left tackle. San Diego likely will study the waiver wire in the next couple of weeks to help depth at the position while McNeill sits out.

Was just about to post that.  So when does he sign his one day contract and officially retire as an Eagle?  He's def one of the best the Eagles have ever had and was certainly one of the top LT's during his playing days.
