That’s right, one of the original pioneers of broadcast radio & tv — the network of Winchell, Berle, Carson and Seinfeld — are being taken over by a buncha fuck knuckles who can’t even manage to make a decent modem.

Bad times for those guys.

Damn this week’s footbaw sched sucked — except Indy/Pats which of course I can’t even stay up late & watch the end of cuz I have to get up insanely early now. And I lost (mummmmble mumble) bucks cuz the goddamn Skins won (ugh) and so did the Bengals (wow, respect). Ouch.

Good news though, got a lotta weight lifting done today, what with all that game-watching time freed up…

1) Stay in shape
2) Play hard

McNabb doesn’t do either of those. How many times has he ducked out of bounds to avoid a hit (look at the Ten game where he tore his ACL). He takes a little hit there and maybe he doesn’t get hurt. Then when he’s coming back from that he puts on another 15 pounds. And no it’s not the same as a quarterback sliding or diving to avoid a hit. If you’re in the middle of the field you’ll get hit on the head or shoulder which could cause major damage where as going out of bounds you’ll barely touched. Look at Adrian Peterson. He was asked if you have a first down and you see a db coming towards you what do you do? Without hesitation “I go for the guy” Mark Schlereth was talking about Reggie Bush last year and criticizing him for the same thing. God forbid anyone criticize McNabb.

As for the TO thing, I think we see the same thing, but see different reasons why it got to where it did. You’re right on the platitudinal statements. But knowing that TO was tempermental, the leaders of the team needed to be more direct with him. I won’t pin that aspect entirely on McNabb.

I do think you underestimate the TO playing injured and McNabb not running the 2minute drill offense, but am willing to agree to disagree.

Anyway, TO had some public comments expressing how he didn’t feel he was appreciated, which led to his offseason contract complaints (he was “only” making 3 mil that year), which eventually came to broadside criticisms of McNabb, Reid, and some specific insults for then-coordinator Brad Childress. Then things got ugly. Not sure where that is McNabb’s fault. He lost a Super Bowl game after a shaky performance; should we trade Dan Marino and John Elway, too?

Also, just a guess, maybe McNabb’s semi-infamous whine/diatribe came shortly after the leader of Philadelphia’s NAACP chapter came at him? Or maybe after Rush Limbaugh insulted him? Wow, what a jackass, getting mildly upset after very public people very publicly insulted him. What was he supposed to do?

The rest is your opinion; I disagree, but its cool.

I read some bad reviews so I passed on it. Might catch it onDemand
