I thought he had another year or two in him. He had a great season!

Bet a lot of $, he'll be doing NFL commentating in the near future.

    I dont blame him....he's had a bunch of concussions, and we all no what that leads to.

    He's a class act all the way, HOF'er no doubt in my mind, great story coming into the leauge

    The Rams were always my team. He was my guy for the only superbowl those rams ever won. Take care, Warner, you ol' stock boy, you.

    That would require LESS ego. Ain't gonna happen.

    One thing I know...

    The Cardinals are now completely F'ed.

    Leinart is an absolute joke. I can still see them squeaking into the playoffs next year for the one reason....their division is terrible.


    I was never a Rams, Cards, or Warner fan, but I do think he's a pretty good guy and I think he's a smart football player who is going to have a great career in the booth.

    You know I wonder if I watched that superbowl. I don't remember it. My real Dad, now dead, was a huge fan and I wound up that way by extension. In one of the oldest photos I have of myself (like 4 years old) I am wearing a pimp Ram's jacket. I started really paying attention around the Dickerson era...

    Kinda sucks, class act guy. One of my friends is a huge Warner fan. Sure he'll be in Canton, OH in a few years.

    Meh, just like every other year...don't see him leaving Philly.

    I know McNabb has a year left on his contract, but do you really think they're going to try to deal him? Kolb is a fantastic backup and Vick can't lead a team to the playoffs on his own...I just don't see it.


    I can see them waiting out his contract and letting him go. Don't get me wrong, I think McNabb is easily a top 5, top 10 QB in the league, but I also don't see him playing for some half-assed team...and right now the only buyers are going to be just that.
    Those buyers aren't going to want a one year QB to lead their team and want out. McNabb isn't young dude anymore and surely he's going to want a real chance at a ring.
    The Eagle's best chance at winning a championship (in the next year or two) is with McNabb behind center.


    Actually, I think the best fit for McNabb would be the Cardinals. Established team, quality WRs...though the Cards are going to have to give a ton for him and they aren't that kind of team.

    He was a great QB... and in the days spoiled young athletes and all that crap, his really is one amazing story. I'm sure there will be a Disney movie about his life someday.
