McNabb as Unhappy as his Detractors?

 

ESPN has a report (excerpts below) taken from the Trenton Times.

 

I am, seriously, on the verge of being unable to talk about this issue rationally. The Eagles have a franchise QB who has been over the past 7 years one of the top 10, perhaps even a top 5 player, in the entire league and a vocal group of idiot fans are going to run him out of town….because he’s “only” won one championship game and taken them to 3 others and didn’t win the one super bowl he was in. To be replaced by a 36 year-old journeyman with a candy arm?

 

This is insanity.

 

At some point, from the McNabb viewpoint, I think it becomes a fair question. Why would I want to play with this team and for this city if this is the way I’m going to be treated? I understand his contract makes any kind of trade nearly impossible, but Philly fans better be careful they don’t get what they wish for.

 

 

“McNabb Reportedly Has Several Gripes with the Eagles”

 

Citing people close to the injured star quarterback, The Trenton Times reported Tuesday that McNabb is unhappy with several things that have happened with the Eagles since his season ended with a torn ACL in his right knee.

Some of McNabb's reported gripes:

• McNabb reportedly is unhappy that Eagles coach Andy Reid didn't allow him to travel with the team to New Orleans for the team's playoff game against the Saints. The Eagles have a rule that players on injured reserve don't travel with the team.

• McNabb also reportedly might be getting the feeling that some with the Eagles might prefer Garcia as the team's starting quarterback after Garcia led Philadelphia to the playoffs and a postseason victory after McNabb's injury.

• And McNabb also reportedly isn't happy with how his mother has been portrayed in the media and by Eagles fans for comments on her blog on his Web site. She wrote that watching the Eagles win without McNabb was "bittersweet."
