hello again

I apologize for not posting in a while, I’ve been out of town and unable to access a computer or the Internet. A lot has happened in the interim.

We’ll have to get to all the Schilling stuff later. And to Terry Francona’s continued mismanagement that hasn’t seemed to impeded the Red Sox. Hey, Bob Brenly mismanaged his team to a World Series ring.

Anyway, back to the Eagles.

Last week’s win vs. Carolina was very encouraging for the manner in which the Eagles achieved it. It was a business-like approach. There didn’t seem to be any point, either before or during the game, that there was any sense – by the players, coaches or fans – that the Eagles were not going to win this game.

I liked TO’s trash talking to the Carolina secondary before the game. Heck, that’s part of the reason he was acquired. So guys like Ricky Manning can’t push are WRs all over the field. TO knows it. We know it. Todd Pinkston knows it. Even better, TO backs it up on the field. The message was unmistakable clear – this is a whole new year. A whole new team. And you aren’t beating us.
