Juan Castillo, new DC of your Philadelphia Eagles

[Don Ho]

Apparently Mangini has no interest.  Took one look at the wide 9 and said good luck with that.

What the farg, mangini? Is that what it's come down to?

[Sgt PSN]

Mangini turned the consultant offer down?

1. He has a cushy ESPN job that he isn't going to leave unless it's to coach.

2. Good

3. Lol at a twice failed laughing stock of a HC said thanks but no thanks.

[Don Ho]

Anyone just hear Sal Pal on Mikey Miss?  I never new Rob Ryan was on the DC list for the birds.  Buddy was pissed when he found out Rob was going to Dallas. 

[PhillyPhreak54]

That makes my brain hurt...I didn't know he was on The List either. But hey - we got JUAN fargING CASTILLO!

And Eagles, of course, are spinning it that there is no truth to this consultant report.

What a goddamn mess.

[Sgt PSN]

They opted for a cheap, inexperienced Mexican instead of an established, highly qualified white dude. 

If this doesn't tell you that this team is business first, product second then nothing will. 

I swear, Lurie is going to be the first owner to outsource coaching jobs to India. 

ALL IN!

LeBron in the NFL

But let's keep up this thought experiment and say LeBron wasn't being facetious and intentionally trying to bait the media into writing about him (well-played, LeBron). If he did, where would be the best place for him?

1. Philadelphia Eagles defensive coordinator -- He has just as much experience in the position as Juan Castillo did entering the season. And he could provide veteran leadership in how not to win a title.

[Sgt PSN]

He could also help them perfect the art of 4th qtr choke jobs.  They almost blew it last week with that attempted comeback.

Too bad, Mangini is probably one of the better 3-4 coaches available out there

I really hope this is sarcasm.  Not about Mangini being a good 3-4 coach, but about the fact that Mangini's scheme requires 4 linebackers and the Eagles don't even have 1.

All of the above, but mostly to underscore how Reid has totally lost his mind. To help a clueless OL coach turned DC who had never been a defensive coach at any level of college or the pros... so Reid's brilliant solution is to bring in a failed 3-4 guy? Really? WTF?!?

If this were real life, isn't this the point where the family comes in and gets court orders or something. Gets him declared incompetent or a danger to himself and others, and the family has to take over. Couldn't be any worse. In fact Brit could pop a cap in Asante's Hoyda ass and Garrett could drive Page and Casey Mathews home, at least they'd learn how to hit something.

The idea of Social Services getting involved with the Reid - Eagles relationship is making me chuckle.

Howie Roseman standing behind a turnstile, crying and pulling out his hair while Swoop is carried off by a large black woman. Andy, up in his office in a mustard-stained wifebeater, sitting in a dark room drinking Budweiser and jerking off to Division II linebacker footage.

That's how I picture it going.

If your thoughts in any way center on Reid beating off, you should seriously consider therapy.
