Eagles LBs for Gore?

Last week's Time cover story on Al Gore had this nugget buried in the article. "'The slide show is a journey', says Gore standing beside his trusty screen in a Nashville hotel ballroom. It's mid-March, and he's addressing 150 people--students, academics, lawyers, a former Miss Oklahoma contestant, a fashion designer, a linebacker for the Philadelphia Eagles. They've come at their own expense to learn how to give the slide show. There's an undeniable buzz in the room, the feeling that takes over a group that knows it's part of something that's big and getting bigger."


So which Philadelphia Eagle LB is a fan of Al Gore? Or is it the concern for global warming that has this pro football player attending one of Gore's presentations?

This, of course, sounds just like something the infamously intellectual Dhani Jones would be interested in. And the mid-March date mentioned in the story would mean that Dhani would still have been an Eagle then. The other possibility is Omar Gaither, a former U. Tennessee student (who now lists Charlotte as his home). The other long shot possibility is Tank Daniels, who lives in Arkansas, and is about a 5-6 hour drive to Nashville.

Must be Dhani. He is a smart dude and a loss for the squad. Go Blue!
