    HOT TAKE FRIDAY!

    For rational reasoning of why teams do what they do in training camp and preseason, please refer to...

    the last time you brought this up last year

    or the time you brought it up in 2016

    or the time you brought it up in 2015

    or the time you brought it up in 2014

    or the time you brought it up in 2013

    or the time you brought it up in 2012

    or the time you brought it up in 2011

    or the time you brought it up in 2010

    or the time you brought it up in 2009

    or the time you brought it up in 2008

    or the time you brought it up in 2007

    or the time you brought it up in 2006

    yada.yada.yada.verbal.diahrrea.

    if you never want me to bring it up again all you have to do is admit what an absurd premise it was when you said pre-season games were important. of course i don't see you doing that so...
    As mentioned before, the reason you lose so many arguments is because you fail to grasp the other person's point of view. Sadly, after 10 years, you still don't. 

    Use these threads. There is a plethora of information you can use to educate yourself with. 

    Best of luck!
    and i was correct in assuming you wouldn't admit it.  too funny.

    let's just get the season started already.

    anyway have a nice weekend.

    So much information at your disposal here, 'Takes. One of these days my hope is you will stop making a mockery of our education system and you'll retain something.


    You too, thanks.

    I wish Darby was a few inches taller (and not quite as aggressive). He had good coverage on that first deep ball...jumped a little early but even if he timed it right, I don't think he wouldn't have been able to make the play. Lot of big receivers in this league...


    At least he's not as short as Mark McMillian. He was like 5'7

    yea sucks he got beat deep in such an important game.

    i saw two series and in both Wentz got knocked down. tell me again why it makes any sense to play your starting QB (and other stars) in the pre-season games?  the risk is FAR greater than the reward.  
    I just read that Edelman was carted off the field for the Pats. I agree: i would NOT play these players in a pre-season game.

    It's finally here.  I like roster choices and our PS. I was glad they were able to stash McCallister. He looked really good but probably needs another year to bulk up to take on starting OT's. 

    PK on the road v. a team we've lost 5 straight to, hmmm?

    very tough start to the schedule with at Wash and at KC.  I think this looks like about a 9-7 team.  Possible playoff team if everything breaks their way as far as health.

    not good news about Jon Dorenbos.  good luck to him.

    looking forward to Sunday's game.  Skins games are always tight.  not sure what to expect from this team.

    Kind of an ominous article to come out day before season starts:

    https://www.bleedinggreennation.com/2017/9/9/16280036/jim-schwartz-doug-pederson-eagles-head-coach-mike-lombardi-philadelphia-defensive-coordinator-report

    At the very least, the optics aren’t favorable. One Eagles staffer said the only coach who probably doesn’t think Schwartz is trying to undercut Pederson is Pederson. Three players, who requested anonymity, said that it’s become well-known in the locker room that Schwartz is waiting to usurp power.

    “He walks around the building like he thinks he’s the head coach,” one player said.

    Penny is the Sd St RB the eagles should have drafted.  Beast.  Instead we get chad hall's stepbrother
    Also, learn the name stephen carr.  holy smokes he is scary good
    go birds this year, but I think next year is the year.  ginas win the division

    juggler I hope you have upgraded your season tickets by now (or gotten rid of those shitty seats altogether).  years ago you sold me your tickets and they were literally the worst tickets the fixer has had for any sporting or musical event.  I hope things are better for you these days

    schwartz is a known hard ass.  pederson is a known moron.  

    should have kept andy reid.  caveman eagles fans are getting what they deserve

    Oh, you mean the one's I originally bought when I was in college 17 years ago? Ha. Okay, man. Hey, you know, those Phillies tickets you sold me way out in left field (that you purchased in your mid 30's) sucked too but I'm not still dwelling on that 8 years later like you seem to be at 12:55 am on a Saturday night. You must have had a lot going on last night. 

    And....yeah I'm going great, thanks for asking. I'm seemingly doing better than you considering this is what you're up thinking about in the middle of the night. (?) Always nice chatting with you, fella. Love ya!

    So anyway...I'm saying 8-8. Don't really know what to expect. Like last year, this is all on Doug and Wentz for me. I just want to see improvement with them over last year to have confidence in this team moving forward. I hate that they failed to find a rb in a rb deep draft. Receivers are upgraded but I don't like having so many new faces with a qb looking to grow with a team. Jeffrey always misses time. I don't know. Line looks good. D should be better, but the secondary still blows. Jenkins is getting old. Darby better be really good.

    go birds
