Eagles Cutting Ties with Mike Vick
That’s the story Howard Eskin is pushing. He claims the Birds are after Troy Smith and that Mike Vick’s recent involvement in a party that led to a shooting and a police investigation will be enough for the Birds to fire him.
It’s Almost Here
July is glorious in so many ways. But it’s a safe bet that for most of the folks who visit this site right near the top of their list is “Eagles training camp.” The long wait is nearly over, we’ll get some legitimate Eagles’ action starting July 27th.
Wondering what’s been going on with the site? Well, life has intervened and made it really difficult to write, even briefly. But things have been sorted out, stability has returned, and we’re happy to say things will get a whole lot more lively around here starting right this moment.
We missed some action. Hitting the major points in reverse, there’s the Vick Mess, of course. And the not-going-to-end-anytime-soon McNabb drama. DeSean Jackson still doesn’t have a new contract that he clearly wants but — at least at this point — is not willing to hold out for. The Birds signed a whole bunch of their draft picks, but still don’t have Brandon Graham and Nate Allen signed and ready to go.
Over the next few weeks we’ll be setting the tone for our training camp discussions. We’ll figure out what the most important questions the Eagles need to find answers for in training camp and (of course) keep up with any new developments as we wait for the reporting dates.
As always, thanks for stopping by. It’s almost football time.
