Donovan McNabb

[Tomahawk]

All he had to do was shut up and go away for awhile. That's all he had to do to. I usually go out of my way to give people the benefit of the doubt, but McNabb is such a whiny, narcissistic, sensitive, pain in the ass that I can't stand it.

He clearly takes no responsibility for any shortcomings and can't handle criticism of any kind, by any one. That's the exact opposite of someone that Philly would truly embrace.

if this isnt classic bedwetter then i dont know what is...amazing

Q. Did any teams contact you last year about playing for them?

"In July, as training camp got closer last year, I started thinking, you know what, this might be it. I had been training just in case, but I decided it wouldn't be a bad move if I just retired.

"I didn't want to be in a position where you make the decision [to quit] and then you're second-guessing yourself. I had to make sure. It was probably around Aug. 1 that I decided."

not so thinly veiled im in the same class as brady and manning comment...lololol @ "so it was going to be a big payday"

"We ended up losing the Dallas game, then lost to them again the next week in the playoffs. I sat down with my wife and said, this might be it here. I was going into the last year of my deal. Kevin [Kolb] was going into the last year of his deal. I said, they have to make a decision. Plus, my contract was up at the same time as Peyton's [Manning] and Tom's [Brady]. So it was going to be a big payday. Were they going to be willing to pay that again?"

can even leave andy....his only friend in the world....unscathed...

pooooooooooor bedwetter was left alone without anyone coming to his defense (even tho andy "would get in front of me and say 'i have to do a better job')....passive aggressive bedwetter at his best

Q.  You and Andy were together for 11 years. That's longer than most marriages. What was your relationship like with him during those 11 years?

"I respected Andy for the way he handled a lot of situations that we all were a part of. He was always a guy that would get in front of me or the team and say, 'I have to do a better job.' Given that my next job was in Washington where the guy would never say that, I appreciated it.

"I respected him for taking a chance on me with the second pick in the draft. We battled back and forth a lot. I felt a lot of times I was left out there without anybody coming to my defense in a lot of situations. If it was him or Joe [Banner] or Jeffrey [Lurie], they felt like I could handle it, that I could diffuse the issue. But I felt like I was just hanging out there myself a lot.

"But overall, it was good. You look at all the coach-quarterback combos in NFL history and what we were able to do, it's impressive."

Q. Andy's going to be there on Sept. 19 for your retirement ceremony and when you're honored at halftime. What's your current relationship with him?

"We're in a good place. I've moved on."

The obsession level towards hating McNabb and picking apart everything he says is unhealthy.

You and Todd need to seek help. Angelo and Rhea too.

He's doing his best to. How perfectly circular the actions that scarred him the most when he began his career will be the same as when his number is retired or whatever

exactly

if he just went away...off to chicago back to mama's house and popped his head out for 1-2 things a year it would be fine. but here is he is, ranting off in interviews acting like a bigger douche than he acted like when he was on the team.

could i not read it? sure. but i did. we all did. and its enraging, infuriating douchebaggery from a pathetic loser passive aggressive choking dog of a qb who wasted chance after chance for 12 years to get this god awful sports city a super bowl. farg him to death how can anyone not despise him.

[phattymatty]

i just thought of him as a harmless douchey loser clown for a long time now. but now's he's definitely creeping into can't stand him territory.
