this was a story a few weeks ago, and now its getting to be a story. LET It go, theres nothing great about this, who cares if he complains about that or hte 7on7 drill, its minicamp.
there has been some speculation on this, the other one site, & by phins haters in Utah here about how TO was a better acquisition than Boston in Miami. It was even theorized that Boston was on steroids etc... This can be downplayed & spun all you want but it (TO complaining) was going to begin sometime. I will guarantee his complaining will only increase. Will the final piece of the puzzle be the Eagles downfall? Stay tuned.
hes not going to get worse. Look, the reason he got mad on the 7on7 drills was because he wanted the ball thrown to him more BECAUSE he wants to get chemisty going with dmac. he even had a interview w. on of our Local CSN reporters and said that hes the new guy and wants to learn Donavaons throws as good as or better than the other WR. the shorts thing happened a few weeks ago, and it wasnt a problem like its being made out to be by the Sporting News. TO and Andy Reid joke about it, and its being reported at least heere i dont know about nationally that TO says shorts suck, and AR laughs. NO BIGGY TO is a better azquisition than Boston, and when i said that boston could have used the roids, it was a longshot theory that i pulled out of my ass.
I totally agree with BEEF. You know what you were getting. It just was a matter of time before. well........ this whining crap started. I just hope he has a bad season

PF93; What you pull out of where is your business & the most blatant case of TMI on the planet. I will say this they can joke about it (the shorts issue all they want) but most major matters start real small & have a way of festering. TO probably will have a better season than Boston. Simply because Philly's WR corps is worse than Miami's and that is saying something. Miami has Chris Chambers. Philly has Freddie Mitchell (there was a reason the phins did not draft him. He blows.) & Pinkston.
The ongoing arguement of who was a better FA signing.... TO or Boston.... I feel bad for the one who ends up wrong on this one. TO has more upside potential and doesn't have any competition outside of LJ Smith. McNabb is a better QB than Fiedler or Feeley.... but Boston is big time and if Miami can get their act together, he could blow up. It's not like they can double Boston with Chambers, McMichael, and Ricky Williams... Let the saga continue....
BA, freddie mitchel was taken before Chambers i think, im actually 99% sure, and everbody knew what TO was going to bring to the team. He will bring some complaints, but thats it. his 2 complaints so far are big nationally, but on the team its a joke. I think that they are all happy especially TO hes as bright as the sun when he talks to reportters. im saying its being made bigger than it really is. thats all
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (Steelerfan_2004)</div><div class='quotemain'>I'd take Chambers over any of Philly's number 2's....</div> so would I. but i think freddie will have a break out year, around 50-60 catches if he gets the number 1 role like he deserves. but i did say this last year about pinkston sooooooooo well see
GF; To clarify, the phins passed on Freddie who lasted 2 or 3 more spots when Philly drafted him. Miami waited until the 2nd of the same draft to get Chambers As it stands now, Philly's best WR (Thrash) is back playing for the Redskins. I would take any of the candidates for Miami's #3 WR (Newson, Simmons, Terence Wilkins) over any #2 that the Eagles line up opposite TO.
GF; no worries. I was clarifying the order in which Mitchell was drafted and then Chambers. To be honest, I don't know exactly how many spots after Miami that Philly drafted FM with. I am certain it was the same year.
BA FM was taken b4 Chambers, look FM was taken 25, i know Chambers was taken somewere in the 45-55range FOR A FACT. AFter FM u took Jamar FLetcher, then ur second round pick was Chambers. http://www.footballsfuture.com/2001/live/round1.html and loook on any other site, just click 2001 NFL Draft
PF; I appreciate your clarification of exactly who was taken when. However, I was aware FM was taken before CC as noted in my post of 6/10.

Let me reiterate; I am fully aware who was taken when. I just did not recall the exact specifics. How is that contradicting myself? I no longer disagree w/ myself because the meds have kicked in. PF, If you think the Eagles will win 13 and Shockey will do worse than LJ Smith than you are hallucinating. As I understand it, Chad Lewis is still the starting TE. Further he is okay in my book even though he went to BYU.
If shockey plays enough........... he has a lot of injuries!!! ahhhhhh who am i kiddin Shockey getting a 1000 this year
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (Giantsfan12004)</div><div class='quotemain'>If shockey plays enough........... he has a lot of injuries!!! </div> thats my point, i made that b4 he got his latest injury, the guy is simply injury prone and thats why i said it. Chad is the backup, LJ is alot better and will be a good 50 catch TE. very fast and stretches the field as good as Tony GOnzzo, and shokey. LJ is the starter and o yea, who can beat the eagles?
