A Rookie Move?

Very interesting article. Some really good points. Though Sam Donnellon must live in some happy world and not in the Philadelphia area.

 

The reason for McNabb’s leaking is for plausible deniability. Imagine the criticism that would come his way if he did take this stand more publicly. Though I think many fans would support him since they are in general agreement on the need for upgrades, there will always be a vocal portion who will absolutely kill him for whatever he said and somehow twist it in some warped way to make him look bad (not a team player?).

 

Seriously, the wonder at this point is why McNabb wants to stay with the eagles at all – what with the lack of offensive playmakers and a fair share of the fans’ seething hatred of him.

 

 And I love the irony in the reversal of fortune where before this season many fans wanted to trade him or cut him, clear cap space and begin the Kevin kolb era. Now, there is a collective, uh-oh, let’s hope that McNabb doesn’t demand to be traded or cut and we have to begin the Kevin kolb era.

 

Mcnabb really is a fascinating story – an unbelievably star-crossed career here.
