He's better than Lewis.  The jury is out on Brown, we'll see when they report in.

You've been duped by ESPN replaying the same alligator arm clips of Pink declining to get nailed while reaching for uncatchable passes. 
I hope Brown proves himself to be better than Pink, but Glew has shown, emphatically, that he is not.

Oh thanks for clarifying that, you're right I never saw him play the last several years.  Everything I get I get from ESPN.

I agree he's probably better than Lewis, he's a little faster, but neither of them can catch the ball for shtein.  Everyone seems to forget the Carolina NFCC.  (I saw some snippets on ESPN.)  And to say most of his alligator arm plays last year were uncatchable is ridiculous.  I was at the game at Giants Stadium last year and have never respected him since.

He would have started for us this year, but for everyone to think we would have more wins because of him is the most retarded thing I've heard in a while.  Which is impressive because I watch ESPN a lot.

I was there.  It was disgraceful.  But if you'll recall, the refs slept through that game.  And Pink led the NFL in YPC last year.  He's far better than Glew.  There is no way to say that the team would win more with him, that's a preposterous thing to say.  But he's more important than you think.

And I was right:  You watch too much ESPN.  Shtein rots your brain.

Even if everyone fires him and no one hires him, the guy still has enough money to sip margaritas on the beach on some remote island for the rest of life. But as long as he keeps getting humiliated like this, I like it.
Zero hour, Michael. It's the end of the line. I'm the firstborn. I'm sick of playing second fiddle. I'm always third in line for everything. I'm tired of finishing fourth. Being the fifth wheel. There are six things I'm mad about, and I'm taking over.

If that's true then it will be a very Merry Christmas.

I dunno about all that but you just never know.  If he's experienced some super natural form personal enlightenment and gives a sincere, honest effort to mend things with the team/Reid/McNabb.  Then maybe. 

My guess though is that he did this realizing that Rosenhaus simply didn't get the job done that he hired him to do and that teams are not going to want to deal with him next year.  I say this was done just so he can try and save a little face and hope that teams are more willing to deal with him once the Eagles release him.

So has anyone seen anything else that actually confirms if TO fired Rosenpuke?  I haven't seen anything on ESPN or Sportsline.  Just wondering if this is true or was it just a rumor?

If it were true... Dan Rather would have come out of retirement to report it on CBS News with live reporters and coverage at that guy's house, at Rosenpuke's house and outside of a gay bar in Detroit for Garthia's reaction.

Since that hasn't happened yet... I call BS.

and now Grady Jackson. 

QuoteWBAY.com reports Green Bay Packers DT Grady Jackson has dropped Drew Rosenhaus as his agent. His new agent is Angelo Wright. Rosenhaus' image has taken a hit after his handling of WR Terrell Owens' situation, and Jackson felt it was time for a change. "It's more, I'm looking toward the future and all what's been going on, and I don't need that right now going into contract negotiations," Jackson explained, "and I just wanted to go in on a positive note."

Trade me, bitches!

QuoteWalker said he's expressed his feelings to new Packers coach Mike McCarthy, while his agent, CSMG Sports' Kennard McGuire, has asked general manager Ted Thompson, as did former Walker agent Drew Rosenhaus, to deal Walker or allow them to pursue a trade. Thompson on Wednesday denied the requests.

"I just don't feel like this is the best place for me to be right now," said Walker, 27, preparing to enter his sixth pro season. "I really have no interest in being in a Green Bay Packers uniform or playing for Green Bay again."

Citing recent contract squabbles with running back Ahman Green, tight end Bubba Franks, defensive lineman Grady Jackson and cornerback Mike McKenzie, as well as his own, Walker added, "I just don't like the way the organization runs itself. They want players to come up there and play hard and work hard, but when it comes time to be compensated, it's like, 'We forgot what you've done.'"

Get Walker?

Is he healthy? Would the Eagles take on a player who is showing TOlike tendencies? How much money does he want?

1. In 2002 the Eagles liked him a lot. That wasn't a Modrak draft either. That was Year 1 of Reid and Heckert.

2. He has extensive WCO knowledge.

3. The Eagles have a WR need

4. The Eagles have money to spend and picks and players to trade.

5. And he does in fact workout with Donovan in Arizona

QuoteIt's not just for the guys who we have on our team going down to Arizona. You have other guys, like (Green Bay Packers WR) Javon Walker comes down. I've had calls from other receivers and defensive backs to come down and get some work.

GET WALKER.

Uh... **thinking**...Yeah, OK.. sure, I guess so. Let's GET WALKER!
