Fire Chip Kelly

[ice grillin you]

gotta give the genius credit today for admitting he farged up the whole shady thing...little late but still he was a man about it...hopefully this is a trial by error lessons learned moment and he somehow changes the way he treats people inside novacare becoming a more players coach which will make for a much healthier environment going forward

[PhillyPhreak54]

He explained it before but he went a bit deeper into the details and also his contrition today was nice to see.

I'm sure he knows that nothing stays secret in the NFL or any sports regardless of it being the official start of the new league year or not.


He also said that the story of Shady being open to re-doing his deal was not something Rosenhaus was willing to do

[ice grillin you]

if he goes back to college we all win...we don't have to watch him run the eagles into the sewer and he doesnt have to deal with agents

Breaking news: Chip's staying

[ice grillin you]

as usual you are all over the eagles beat

[ice grillin you]

btw the thought of a coach who is struggling to stop other teams from knowing his plays and is still learning how to have eye contact with his own players also having to deal with agents and drafts is frightening

[Sgt PSN]

Wasn't Chip already the GM when Shady was traded? If so, then his the hell can a trade be completed without him knowing about it?

[PhillyPhreak54]

He (Chip) knew about the trade because he made it.

Shady didn't know because he wasn't told by Chip because Chip thought nothing would/could be completed and official until the following day which was the first day of the new league year.

Your hyperbole is frightening

[Sgt PSN]

So the trade was completed and the GM didn't know that the trade was completed. Got it.

Maybe you should watch the PC or find a quote to help you understand?

[PhillyPhreak54]

"We were told that the trade wasn't initiated, and it wouldn't be initiated until the next morning, so there were no phone calls to be made. And then all of a sudden, I'm driving to an event, and he's been traded. I felt bad that I didn't get a chance to talk to him. I called him, he didn't answer my phone call. I know he was pissed, and he should be pissed. Rightly so.

"Every player that has ever left this team, I've talked to them, personally, myself. Every one that's in town, we talk to them individually, here in our office. I talk to them, the coordinator talks to them, the position coach talks to them. We have a way that we do it, that I think is the right way to do it, and it wasn't exercised in that case. I understand why ... he was the all-time running back here, he felt like he was disrespected, and it was wrong. And because I was part of it, it's on me.

"When we traded for Sam [Bradford] and for Nick [Foles], with Jeff Fisher, it was a great situation. Jeff texted me, we were both on the phone together and said, 'Alright, when are you going to make the call? Let's call now. When we're done with our phone calls with our players, text each other.' He texted me that he was done, I texted him that I was done. I then called Sam, he then called Nick. That's the way it should've been done.

the farg up by chip there is far less concerning than the guy CKGM identified and caked off as shadys replacement

I've seen that clip of the PC like a thousand time today.  So we are to beleive that Chip was told (by who? by the league?) that the trade wouldn't be made official until the next day?  Maybe it's an honest mistake. Maybe this happens more often than I'm aware of. I just have a hard time believing the guy who loves shifting the blame to anyone else when he says it isn't his fault. Maybe I could take him more at his word if he wasn't constantly throwing others under the bus.

Agreed. Everything about that deal was awful. Kiko blows and Murray is a crybaby bitch who hasn't even come close to fitting this offense.
