Hank Baskett Hysteria

[MDS]

Has your hick ass even seen a camera like that?

[PhillyPhreak54]

Nossir. I reckon I've only seen one of em pollyroid thangs. You know. The ones that envelop on thur own. The same ones I used to take nekkid pics of your sister with.

[MDS]

Well at least he's honest.

Brown, Baskett, and McNabb were talking amonst themselves on the sideline for most of the 3rd quarter. Can't wait to get my Baskett jersey.

He is that good?

Man I don't even remember writing this I am about 15 beers deep, which down here is amazing to people.

He made an excellent catch on a deep sideline ("go" route) pattern.  The ball was perfectly thrown and he caught it just as he should have.  He also had another slant pattern go for six or seven yards.

Did Hank make a nice basket-catch?

not to take anything away from hank at all but that catch he made was all donovan...cant throw it any better than he did as the coverage was excellent

that said mcmullen would have dropped it

Jaws couldn't shut up about this guy during the ETN broadcast.  now, i know, they are going to slobber anyone, and they did.  but Jaws was crazy over the top with it.  "I believe Hank Baskett will the be the sensational story of the NFL this year!"  that made me sit and say, "what the farg"

[ice grillin you]

what they dont realize is the more they stroke baskett the more they are saying how bad the rest of the wrs really are

is jabar gaffney still on the team??

[MadMarchHare]

All that is true.  But IF Baskett starts and plays well this year, how sweet will that trade look.....

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

At this point, here is how I see the receivers with roster spots:

Absolute locks, barring IR-level injury:
Reggie Brown
Hank Baskett
Jason Avant

Likely to make it, but not definite:
Jabar Gaffney
Darnerien McCants

Needs to show something and/or get healthy, or they're toast:
Todd Pinkston
Greg Lewis

Destined to end up on IR before season begins:
Jeremy Bloom

Basically no chance:
Everyone else

[ice grillin you]

on another note if hank basketts name was
say
peter williams
does he get the hype hes getting right now

[MadMarchHare]

Not everything's a race issue, IGY.  Jesus.  The kid has played well above expectations, and gave the fan base at TC something to cheer for.  Which was really needed after the doom and gloom of last year.  An UDRFA that makes a big splash after being traded for before he ever proved anything would be a story regardless of his race.

the other great surprises off the preseason so far:

JR Reid
Omar Gaither
Matt McCoy looking like an NFL player
Jason Avant looked like a keeper last nite.
