    Yeah, that's good stuff. Though, I don't mind when they go green on green with the jerseys and pants better than the white on white. Even if there was a flare gun shot off when they sported the look before.

    Right now, the Sixers have the best uni's, followed by the Flyers, Phils, then Eagles.

    i don't love the sixers unis. i thought they should have just gone full on old school with the 80's throw backs. the logo rules though. should've done the same with the court too.

    any predictions on what the line will be this weekend? I honestly haven't seen it...probably won't be out until the eagles give injury updates later in the week.

    I'm thinking it will be eagles -3, regardless of the QB

    Might be higher with Stafford out. Who's their backup again?

    Shawn Hill. Was with SF for a while. He's a solid backup, but nothing special

    yeah nothing till they know who the qb is. is stafford definitely out? you miss a lot being down at the game....one cool thing they've done is add the redzone to all tvs in the concourse.

    i think vick will give the birds an extra point regardless though.

    did they play the red zone channel on the stadium screen during time outs? heard somewhere that they were doing that at all stadiums this year, which would make going to games a lot more appealing to me since I'm a degenerate.

    stafford is out 2-6 weeks

    no just concourses. there's too much for nfl teams to be selling us on the big screens during time outs for that.

    funny how the one dude rushing to judgment over kolb in this thread is a cowboys fan. good job birds fans. you're better than that. the jeagler is proud of you. :clap:


    the irony with this whole vick/kolb thing is that reid's own job security over the next few years depends largely on kolb developing into a solid nfl starting quarterback. so by continuing to trot vick out there every other play, he's not only stunting kolb's growth as a qb, he's also hurting his own chances of finishing out his new contract. again...this is an interesting problem reid has created for himself. will be plenty interesting to see how it plays out.

    also fixer, regarding the o line and you predicting they would suck: much like you cannot put a whole lot stock in kolb's 2 quarter performance, you can't do the same thing with the line (especially considering they were going against the #2 defense in the league last year). they were going to need a few games to gell with herremans and jackson not participating in preseason and training camp anyway...then jackson goes down for the season 2 quarters in. they were decent until his injury last year and, based on that, would have been decent again in time. all bets are off now though with the injury. but your quick judgment there is very similiar to the people rushing to judgment on kolb. j peters is frustrating as hell, that much i will grant you. but again, he was there all year last year.

    hopefully kolb plays next week. i can only imagine the fervor for vick in this town if he lights it up again for a full game.
    Jeags I'm not rushing to judgement on Kolb, I've been begging for this moment for 3 years. As a Cowboy fan I'm saying, and have been saying, I'd rather face Kolb than McNabb or Vick. And McNabb put up about 7 fantasy points total in 3 consecutive games against us. Say what you will about my opinion (which may be wrong) but this isn't a rush to judgement (see: Eagles threads from the past 2 years).

    you're saying he sucks based on 2 quarters this year and 2 games last year. to me, that's a bit of a rush. nobody knows if he will suck or will be good. obviously you'd rather face kolb than donovan or vick right now. i would too if i were you. gotta wait and see what he becomes this year.

    we're trying accomplish in 2 years what has taken your squad over a decade with about 5 coaches and as many or more qbs to do. gonna take our lumps this year...

    I thought he sucked at college and I thought he was a stupid draft pick also...haha. However, as I said in my first post, if you're willing to suck for a year and hope he gets better next year then that is an option. I just feel that he isn't a good QB. He did have a couple good games last year though - statwise.
  • very ironic on Sunday at the game

    I went in through the Verizon gate and couldn't get any signal on my verizon phone

    wtf ?

    What made you think that? I watch a ton of college football and he was a beast at UH.

    you've been saying a lot of dopey things the last few weeks. call 'em like i see 'em dude.

    what kind of side bet are we talking?

    you call it. I'm up for anything. all depends on how much loot you want to lose

    why don't we just do the same weekly thing we were doing in the betting thread--just put an extra amount on who ranks higher between the two of us?

    we still doing this?

    Week 1 to the Fixer

He did have a couple good games last year though - statwise.

    admittedly i don't watch a lot of houston cougar football. but by all accounts, he certainly did not suck. if we didn't take him there, there were at least 2 teams willing to move up and get him right at that same spot. it looks like he has defeciencies that needs to be ironed out though. what young qb doesn't though? i didn't like the pick at the time either. i didn't like the whole draft at the time...but looking back we ended up getting kolb, celek, and stu bradley that year. they are the leaders on our team right now.

    by trading the franchise qb and going with kolb, we've obviously committed ourselves to a rebuilding year of sorts. one in which i still think we can be an average-ish team with all the weapons he has to work with. now with our center out for the year, it throws a wrench into those plans a bit. but we had to move on from mcnabb. he wasn't going to play for us on a 1 year deal. the birds were not going to resign him long term. they just gave andy a ridiculously lengthy extension. might as well get something for him. my beef is trading him to a rival in our division, but that's another discussion. if kolb turns out to be halfway decent and nate allen (the guy we got with the mcnabb pick) develops into the beast i think he can be, we made the right move. gotta wait and see though. most people in this city are willing to do that.

    this week's slate was one of the toughest I had ever seen.

    How about this...we go week to week, $5 a week per guy. winner of the week takes the $10.

    Actually, I know how I am...I'm too lazy to keep track of this. fuck it, let's just do the thing ed is running

    birds -4.5

    I could never bet against the birds, but if vick starts I like detroit plus that many points.

    you have too much faith in shaun hill.

    vick's gonna start. no way they let kolb play with only a friday practice under his belt. i think we roll regardless.
