The Dean Posted August 14, 2009 Share Posted August 14, 2009 A show called "The Venture Brothers"...some of the best comedy writing on TV is done on that show. I have, fairly recently, become a fan of the Venture Brothers. Gotta love Dr. Girlfriend. Vick makes sense for the Eagles. He is ZERO threat to McNabb. I think there is no chance he is a QB with them, even if Donovan goes down. But the Eagles took a risk on an athlete. Perhaps they give him a look in the Wildcat. If Westbrook and/or DeSean Jackson go down, he provides another option for the offense. At worst, he is an interesting situational player with skill. He is a guy that can help a team like that, far more than he could have helped a team like the Bills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cereal Posted August 14, 2009 Share Posted August 14, 2009 Ba-Zing! Hey though...come on...Peters is...doing...he's doing gooooooooood. (more nerd points to anyone who gets that reference) Family Guy, but that's actually probably a reference to something else.. Yeah McNabb not going to be happy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJ (not THAT RJ) Posted August 14, 2009 Share Posted August 14, 2009 I can't. The gif won't stop! If they fire Reid, that's their loss, not his. Typical dumb business model that sports franchises run under Now that last point is something we can agree on. Although personally I can't stand Andy Reid's smugness. Unlike Belicheat, he has not earned it through winning championships, but insists on it even though he has a tendency toward in-game brain farts (bad play calling, horrific time management) that can assume Jauronian proportions.

stinky finger Posted August 14, 2009 Share Posted August 14, 2009 Thank you for proving that the use of the wallbash is inversely proportional to the IQ of the poster. Your welcome. Now, back to Reid. You're wrong. Dead wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJ (not THAT RJ) Posted August 14, 2009 Share Posted August 14, 2009 Your welcome. Now, back to Reid. You're wrong. Dead wrong. On what? Did I say I wanted him gone? No, I did not... I had this exact conversation with Adam in another (no wait, it is this) thread... the vibe in Philly is that Reid is on very thin ice. Should he be? That is another question entirely. I realize that many Bills fans, in their frustration over Peters and other things, got to fellating the Eagles for their brilliant signing, but from here in Philly I can tell you that there is a lot of criticism of Reid and the Eagles FO, and a growing nervousness about their future with aging players. Is it completely sensible? Probably not. Just as most of the chicken littling here on TSW is nonsensical. But outside of the smug confines of New England and probably Pittsburgh, you will not find many fans completely happy with their teams or their coaches. That is what fans do.

Jim in Anchorage Posted August 14, 2009 Share Posted August 14, 2009 I could care less if the Eagles burn in hell for eternity. He's not going to the Bills No need to remove my bumper stickers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People in Cleveland have a growing frustration regarding the Browns. This may be the year the sellout streak ends. Cleveland needs to get off to a quick start, which probably won't happen. There is a plan, however. The Browns will be better, although you may not see it at first. In places like Chicago and Green Bay, there seems to be quite a bit of criticism of the management. There are a lot of Packers fans who still haven't forgiven Ted Thompson for not kowtowing to Favre's every whim. Many Bears fans are not convinced that Jay Cutler is the missing piece. Cutler might have been, if this were 2005. Both of those teams have quite a bit of work to do, although I do think the Packers are better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
todd Posted August 14, 2009 Share Posted August 14, 2009 This is great news. Bills don't need a sociopath felon on their team, or idiot fans who are willing to worship a sociopath felon.

Chalkie Gerzowski Posted August 14, 2009 Share Posted August 14, 2009 Boy, that Andy Reid is a genius.... I mean, he drafts Kevin Kolb two years ago, messing up his relationship with McNabb, and now he signs Mike Vick, to mess up his relationship with both his existing QBs. Smart movie, tubby. Really. And if you people think Dick Jauron is boring and awful in press conferences, you have seen nothing until you see Andy Reid in action. Andy Reid vs. Adam Richman...that would improve Eagles' press conferences greatly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloBill Posted August 14, 2009 Share Posted August 14, 2009 I may be wrong,but I feel the Bills dropped the ball on this one. If Vick is a bust, almost everyone on this post will be correct. I think we should have signed him. This is why we will continue to lose, the Eagles are the most talented team in football and now they add Vick. get a grip .. the most talented team?

Big Curt Posted August 14, 2009 Share Posted August 14, 2009 Hey! Curt.......a little AF humor for ya: "Why not Minot? Freezin's the reason!" (I know.....it's an old one). Ha Ha! Real funny! I like Minot because of the calm winters. Just kidding, It is cold here but I'm born and raised in Buffalo, so I'm used to a little cold and snow.

Big Curt Posted August 14, 2009 Share Posted August 14, 2009 get a grip .. the most talented team? Yes, the Eagles are the early favorite to win the Super Bowl. This was before they got Vick. When Trent gets hurt,we'll be wishing we had a solid back up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turn Down For Watkins Posted August 14, 2009 Share Posted August 14, 2009 Yes, the Eagles are the early favorite to win the Super Bowl. This was before they got Vick. When Trent gets hurt,we'll be wishing we had a solid back up. There's still Griese and Frerotte who are both FA's who we could bring in without having to worry about a QB controversy and they could still both be better than Fitzpatrick. Either one would work out fine, IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PTR These things are not really "polls" and are representative only of the people who went to that site and took that poll. Nothing else. Trust me. Now, it's possible it reflects the real feelings of Eagle fans, but many things are possible. You could make a dart board with opinions and throw a thousand darts and the results MIGHT reflect reality. But that's no way to judge opinion. Internet polls, that let anyone and everyone vote, are worthless as a real indicator. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
