Oh well...let him holdout.  I have no patience for hold-outs.  Cut his sorry azz!!  Just kidding.

If Westbrook and T.O. had coordinated this better, the Eagles might have been slightly more compelled to listen.

WEST is GOD

This decision is SO stupid that the only explanation I can think of is that he was kidnapped at gun point and was forced to call the Eagles and tell them he was holding out.

Probably some jealous Cowboy fans.  :boo

I think Buck sneaked him the stash so that he would forget the date and, thus, allow Buck to revive his career!

Or so I've heard. :paranoid

This is a ridiculous holdout. I can't believe he would pull this.

I understand that Westy wants a long term deal, but is he forgetting that NFL money by-in-large is not guarenteed? I mean if he did get a Rudi Johnson contract with a signing bonus of 12 million and didn't sign on the dotted line then he is a complete idiot.

It's amazing the displays of pure nonsense the Eagles as an organization have been involved in this off-season. Anyone want to compile a list of this drama? You could make for one compelling made-for-TV Lifetime Original.  ;)

The more the drama, the sweeter it will be when McNabb hoists the trophy. I can't wait to see this team defy previous NFC champs not making playoffs, and everything going on now.

According to Neil Hartman's "source" ::) , Westbrook wants a deal between Travis Henry's (5 years) and Deuce McAllister's (8 years, $50.1M, $12.5M SB)...

Y'know, he's worth it.  But a hold out is the wrong way to go about this.....

No he isn't. He's a cool weapon to have on this offense, and I don't want him going anywhere, but he's not a workhorse back who will get tough yards when we need them.
Is rjs gonna have to choke a bitch?

Let them eat bootstraps.

QuoteESPN.com's John Clayton reports RB Travis Henry's four-year contract extension with the Tennessee Titans will pay him about $9.7 million and includes a $4 million team option in 2006. Henry will play for his $1.25 million salary this year with no additional upfront money. If he performs at his normal 1,300-yard level, Henry can turn the deal into a $3 million or $3.5 million contract. What makes this so favorable to the Titans is that they don't have to invest in a running back in next year's draft, something they would have had to do in the first three rounds.

per espn's p. king, what biged said is what westy is looking for, something along the lines of a deuce contract.  he also quickly added that if there was a team that could deal without having him on the sidelines it was, more then even the pats, the eagles.  he didn't think westy was doing himself a service with this move.
