he grew up in Harrisburg and Andy said on ESPN that he was an Eagles fan growing up

have to wonder if growing up in the footsteps of Ricky Watters had anything to do with that.

The character thing is overrated, unless you're completely nuts like Pacman, but the part about his fascination with Reggie Bush is borderline stalker/creepy:

May be a bit stronger between the tackles than Bush, but is not as fast and elusive. Similar to Bush prior to the 2006 draft, McCoy's character is suspect and could affect his value"

I'm farging excited about this pick.  Good fit in this offense.  He's the new Vince Papale

Well, except he has more football talent in one of his teeth than Papale ever had.  I'm not getting the comparison at all.

He probably can't wait for Sheldon to be traded... probably doesn't like him too much.

He's probably the first guy that rooted for the Eagles to play for them since Papale.  And Harrisburg is basically Philly.  And white guy with some speed who makes the team during open tryouts is totally a lot like a guy who was a blue chipper out of high school and a 2nd round pick.

Are you sure you don't already have the swine flu?  It starts with the brain.

my college roomate grew up just outside of harrisburg and is an all philly fan except hes a monster steeler fan (hes also a douchebag)....that area is like 90% steeler fans 8% eagle fans and 2% taterskin (from when their training camp used to be in carlisle) so shady being an eagle fan was a brave stand a lone thing to do...then again his name is shady so i would expect nothing less

you couldn't be more wrong, it is mostly Eagles fans.  The Steelers fans have always been around but since they have returned to prominence they are coming out of the woodwork.

absolutely 100% not...it used to be more taterskin fans than eagle fans till they left...steeler fans dominate eagle fans up there...its not even close...been that way since the 70's...

IGY is correct, although the % of Eagles fans is probably more like 20-25.

At least if he pans out, we'll finally have the Real McCoy at RB.
