Chad Lewis

this in fact reminds me that i never received a well deserved point for this

You'd already given yourself 1.5 points you didn't earn.

i don't think Parry is going anywhere.  I heard R Diddy on WIP a couple weeks ago talking about why the Eagles kept Parry over Ritchie.  Ritchie's age, injury, and salary were all factors that led to them keeping Parry.  However, he also said that the Eagles really like Parry because he is young and also they feel he's picked up the fullback position fairly well for playing linebacker his whole career.  He also said that they think he can improve.  So, I don't think he's going anywhere.

could have heard me say all this before ritchie was even cut when i predicted his demise for many of these very reasons...add in the fact that reid loves to pat himself on the back by having as many UFA on the team and it was pretty clear parry was gonna be the guy...this in fact reminds me that i never received a well deserved point for this

maybe, just may, adding some punctuation to your posts would help people read them a little bit better. ...lololololololololololol

Breathe, PG.  Breathe...

IGY, wasn't your one point FOR the Ritchie thing?

You made a plea for it back then when Ritchie was cut.

[hunt]

is spach capable of playing h-back, fullback, or whatever you want to call it???
forgive me but i don't pay a lot of attention to him during the games.

yeah i might have...i cant recall...i guess if theres no proof i have to rescind it...no biggie since im getting a point each for my taterskin bets...tho murp is going to get one for my rod gardner campaign

[ice grillin you]

pg was right....excerpts from a search i performed...



whoa, slow down there Icy.   A half point for nothing?  I thought this was MURP vs. ICE?  I havnt argued this Parry/Ritchie thing yet!   

but just to make it interesting Ill take Ritchie and you can take Parry.   If Ritchie makes the team its  5.5 to 0.   If Parry Makes it, it will be 4.5 to 1.    holla.

i had to get on the board somehow...it was getting embarrassing





and my actual prediction....






IGY,

You think Reid carries both Parry and Ritchie? Or do you think Ritchie is not in the picture at all?


i think the better question is does ritchie make the team...cause parry is a lock...and the answer is with two other FB's on the roster under 28 with ritchie at 31 coming off a serious injury is no

in addition parry is a reid golden boy imo...reid loves the fact that parry is an UFA ex LB that reid can take credit for turning into a fullback...hopefully it will work out and parry will justify being a starting nfl fullback with his on the field play...but reids god complex scares me and i can see him trying to fit the square peg in the little circle just to say i told so...at this point though you gotta trust he knows what hes doing and that parry will end up being ok

BYU insider and NBC10 Sports Reporter Vai Sikahema said on Sports Final last night that Chad Lewis will be in Philly this week to take his physical with the Birds. If he passes he will be signed and could play this week against the Chargers.

God, I hope this is true!

Cut PARRY!!!

[rjs246]

As much as I hate Parry. Having a professional football team without ANY FBs is a farging farce. If he gets cut I'm declaring shenanigans.

[PhillyPhreak54]

Spach = FB/H-Back

Larry brought that idea up and i like it.

Spach played FB a lot up at Lehigh and blocked well.

[rjs246]

farging wonderful. So instead of having a decent FB (Ritchie) we have a no-name white boy with dreads who isn't really a FB playing 'h-back'.

I'm not sure why we don't just have 15 WRs on the roster.

[mussa]

i hate to say it but id rather have Parry with a year under his belt at fullback than a rookie who hasn't played a snap of fullback in the pro's.  what other FB free agents are available? 

[MadMarchHare]

Ritchie.

[PhillyPhreak54]

Right.

Because the Eagles use the FB so much that it would make a difference who is back there.

Spach has obviously learned the position. And how would this be any different than having Parry there last year?

As of right now we have a no-name, no-talent white boy back there who couldn't block to save his life and who falls down when in the flat all by himself after he catches the ball. Sometimes those pesky hash marks even cause him to fumble when he trips over them.

[PhillyPhreak54]

Ritchie.

If he's healthy, I'd drive him from Mechanicsburg to the NovaCare complex.
