Random Eagles Information Still Not Worthy of a New Thread

[ice grillin you]

saying you like your home fans to boo you and that you look at games in the linc as road games is not an opinion...its the way you feel and it makes you look like an icehole

[MDS]

so they, as a team, were resentful of the fans for being angry when they were 1-4?

how farging stupid are these people.

[ice grillin you]

lol...thats the amazing thing...and not just 1-4 but 1-4 with a 20 pt 4th quarter blown lead...unbelievbly awful turnovers...one of them by YOU as sunny pointed out...and all this by the dream team...

naw the fans definitely shouldnt boo that

You would think he hadn't been playing in Philadelphia the last five years.

I wouldn't have so much of a problem with the Dream Team label if we had a decent linebacker in our group. It would be easier to swallow (zoinks, I said swallow ).

[MDS]

its really our fault as a society for enabling this type of behavior when these people think the sun revolves around them and their farging ability to play football well

oh well. what can ya do

I respect Avant for being honest and not coming back all PC apologetic like most players and coaches, and doesn't really give a farg if you or the organization or anyone else likes it or not. If he wants to play the us against the world thing who really farging cares? He's willing to say what a lot of other players are afraid to.

Has this been posted yet???
"We realize it's going to be just these guys in the locker room, that's the way we take it," he said. "We don't want people jumping on our bandwagon now. We want people to go out and still talk bad about us."
-Avant

NOVACARE COMPLEX — Jason Avant clarified his comments about Philadelphia fans Thursday, but he's not taking anything back.

"Let's get this clear: I will not apologize for what I said," said Avant.

The veteran wideout believes his comments were blown out of proportion. Following Sunday's win over Dallas, he was quoted as saying:

"We look at home games like road games. We like to get booed by our fans...We don't want people jumping on our bandwagon now. We want people to go out and still talk bad about us."

Avant further explained his thought process.

"What I'm saying is we have an underdog mentality. Whether you cheer us or boo us we have an underdog mentality," said Avant. "That's what I meant.

"The fans I guess called in stations and gave their opinions, right? I'm a person; this is America, right? I can have an opinion, right? That's my opinion. I take offense when you have signs outside talking about firing my coach; I take offense to it. Definitely not apologizing for that."

Avant was asked if he thinks he will be booed Monday night at Lincoln Financial Field given what he said.

"I don't really care. You know why? Because I play my hardest," said Avant. "You're going to boo me for playing hard? You're going to boo me for chasing down a play when no one else is running? You're going to boo me for being on special teams or going over the middle and taking a big shot? Boo me for doing what's right. That's fine."

He is right.

Why are people so goddamn think-skinned?

Toughen up. If you boo a guy and he fires back - so farging what.

[Eagaholic]

What I'd really like to see is everyone in the stadium boo Avant with his first catch and him give the finger back with both hands, willing to take the fine. It's the Philly way.

Who really gives a flying farg what Avant says? Five friggen' pages of people whining about somone saying 'we', and an athelete saying he doesn't want fans to jump on the bandwagon or boo. The Eagles just put the beatdown on the Cowboys like there was no tommorrow, look like they might have finally turned a corner on defense and playcalling. Change the subject...please. It was more interesting talking what happens after hbionic eats a burrito.
