A small note to Jason Peters



Welcome to the newest Eagle, who people who know a hell of a lot more than I do about line play are all kinds of excited about. He's young, good, and came at a very tolerable price, especially since the Eagles almost always blow their first round picks (rounds 2 through 4 are when they make their money).

But anyway, back to the new guy. Sir, if you want to sell a lot of jerseys -- and lets' face it, those Jon Runyon gamers aren't looking terribly stylish in Philly Fan's closet right now -- say the following magic words at your upcoming press conference in Philadelphia.

"The last thing that made me want to get the hell out of Buffalo was when they signed Terrell Owens. No way in hell was I going to play on the same team as that piece of crap."

You'll be getting the local car dealer phone calls before the presser is over...

Don't you start that "the Eagles can't draft" nonsense, Shooter. You're smarter than that. McNabb, Patterson, Bunkley, Sheppard (hey, he went to a Pro Bowl) and Andrews were first-round picks by this regime. They traded out of the first round twice, and Mitchell and Simon were contributors before talking and eating his way out of league, respectively. The only true bust was McDougle. Those are pretty damned solid results.
