QuoteEAGLES CUT SPIKES

When we mentioned on Saturday that Eagles linebacker Takeo Spikes wasn't on the depth chart any longer and inferred that this could be a sign that the Eagles might be dumping him at some point in the future, Eagles web guy Dave Sparado called us "absurd" and "stupid" and "incontinent."  (Okay, we're exaggerating.  He didn't call us stupid.)

Regardless, Spikes is now no longer an Eagle.

According to Adam Schefter of NFL Network and our friends at WIP radio in Philly, Spikes have been cut.

The move creates an immediate $5 million in cap space.

Spikes was traded with quarterback Kelly Holcomb and a late-round pick from the Bills to the Eagles in 2007 for defensive tackle Darwin Walker, who eventually was traded to the Bears.  None of the three players currently is under contract with any NFL team.


Fantastic.

Honestly, the depth chart thing meant nothing.  He was taken off because he was on IR.  They messed up by not updating it all around when they put on Samuel as the starting LCB.


But still, I don't mind PFT claiming victory over Spadaro.

Tell you what sport,  why don't you head on over and keep refreshing the depth chart and let us know if there are any changes.
An ad hominem fallacy consists of asserting that someone's argument is wrong and/or he is wrong to argue at all purely because of something discreditable/not-authoritative about the person or those persons cited by him rather than addressing the soundness of the argument itself.

Quotesince spring of 2004 when they traded for TO and drafted andrews how many difference makers has this team aquired

i count one: trent cole

tell me im missing someone because if not thats four full years and one impact player

I was thinking the same thing yesterday, they really haven't they have drafted some solid players, but that is it.  That is why I would like to see them take someone like Desean Jackson.  This team has quite a few solid players but they don't really have many difference makers.  On offense they have on Westbrook, at this point McNabb is not.  Defensively the addition of Samuel is probably makes it 2 with Cole.  And Cole is pushing it.

They had set up a profile for him so that it was ready to be linked to as soon as he signed on the dotted line, which never happened.  Unfortunately, they didn't wait to post it online, so someone found it before they had a link to it.  Hilarious.

A similar thing happened on the mobile version of the page with the final cut list last year.

So Akeem, is there anything you would like to say to TKO as he leaves and you battle for his WIL spot?

"Yes!  Yes!  In the face!"

Pass.  Pass. Pass. PUNT.  No pro bowl WR's.  Pass. Pass. Pass. PUNT.  Retarded special teams.  Pass. Pass. Pass. PUNT.  "I've got to do a better job."  Pass. Pass. Pass. PUNT.  Running game shines for 3 plays. Pass. Pass. Pass. PUNT.  No adjustments anywhere.  Pass.  Pass. Pass. PUNT.  (repeat)

That was back when they had the highly-secure system for player bios where the IDs at the end of the URL were consecutive.....

Can I take back my post of the Akeem coin?  A "Coming to America" quotes thread could be most cumbersome.
