If someone were to guess the script for this A.J. conference before-hand, it would be almost exact.

No questions or mentions of Heather Mitts yet.  C'mon, Press Corps!

He actually said, "Yeah, I'd be happy to let Dio have an hour and a half with Heather in a hotel room, but only if he brings along his bisexual girlfriend and a pile of cocaine too."

Dave has a gay contest going on where he says there is one guy currently on the roster that he is surprised is still on the team, even at this point.  First person to guess correctly wins some sort of signed memorabilia (edit:  an autographed hat).

It's not Bruce Perry or Darrell Lee.  Also not Sampy, Gasperson, or Matt Ware.

who the hell is this guy.  i noticed in a fantasy draft yesterday that this guy is listed in yahoo as TE for the Eagles.  i have nver heard of him.

PoopyfaceMcGee

Dave is strongly hinting that the team will keep Gaffney.

His reasoning:
--Gaffney has been improving and playing well in practice, while McCants has been declining
--If they cut McCants, he would probably still be "on the streets" if they needed him back, whereas that probably wouldn't be the case with Gaffney.
--Baskett, Avant, and Lewis can all play special teams, so not a big deal that Gaffney really doesn't.

WR's: Brown, Stallworth, Gaffney, Avant, Baskett, Lewis - there we are

MOTHERfargER! I was right! BITCH.

He never showed up at Lehigh. They had him on the roster along with Corey Peoples and Jeremy Caudill for awhile but they never practiced at all. Then they just disappeared from the roster.

You should draft him though. Excellent prospect.

What does he win? A hat? Signed by who? Stefan Rogers?

Really smart of Dave to give the phone number and directions to claim the prize live.

I'm sure the actual winner will be the only guy to call.  Ha!

By mid-season Avant is going to make Gaffney very expendable. There is no way Gaffney gets extended. I think by seasons end it'll be:

Brown
Stallworth
Avant
Baskett
Lewis

Agreed.  Avant was drafted to be the tough guy in the slot for years to come.

I don't think they ever had any delusions about Avant playing the outside.  His strength is his toughness, route-running, and hands.  He's not tall and he's not fast in a straight line.
