Monday morning cornerback in Philly...
There's so much information flying at Eagles fans right now, it feels to me like you're a cornerback and your zone is being flooded...
I don't buy into the common lament of most football writers who complain the lockout has given them "nothing to write about"...
There's almost too much info to assimilate properly or objectively, in my humble opinion...
Look at all the unanswered questions surrounding the Eagles... Will there be a "normal" training camp? Will the Birds be able to re-sign K David Akers, or LB Stewart Bradley? Safety Quintin Mikell? Backup RB Jerome Harrison? Punter Sav Rocca? Or even nickelback Dimitri Patterson?
What happens if Kevin Kolb is traded away, and who will be the QB#2 then?...and what other FA signings (if any) will be accomplished within a very narrow window of time?
And what if an abbreviated training camp session bleeds over into an underachieving first half of the regular season? What will be the provisional plan if things seem to be going off track after the first 8 games?
Last Thursday was a critical point. If the sides could not advance negotiations from there, then the possibility of hundreds of millions of dollars being lost to canceled preseason games was real. And if the owners allowed the impasse to get that far, what was to stop them from testing the players' pain threshold by extending the lockout into the regular season?
However, as SI's Jim Trotter reports, De Smith had established his own secret lockout fund for the players in case of a lost season. It basically was a $200,000 insurance policy from a labor slush fund payable to each NFL player if the 2011 season was lost...
With talks reaching this critical juncture, De Smith and his proxy, Domonique Foxworth, revealed the existence of this secret lockout fund for the players.... "Want to go nuclear, bosses? We'll ride out the winter right with you." That was the message.
And they try to tell me there's nothing to write about in this lockout?
Fortunately for us as fans, this chess-move knowledge of a labor slush fund might just have been just enough to wear down the last bit of bravado the Owners had, and get pens tantalizingly close to paper, ending this lockout once and for all.
It still doesn't solve the logistics problem of a dwindling time window for Free Agent transactions, undrafted rookie signings and the essence of a meaningful training camp...
Does Stew stay or does he go? This is the kind of question that would have been answered long ago if not for the bloody lockout...
It's a mixed-up crazy world right now...
Evidence of this insanity is gained by looking at the recent NFL Network's Top 100 Players Poll....
Did anyone else notice that of the so-called Top 100, a completely askew salary schedule in the NFL was totally out of synch?
If we examined how GM’s around the league viewed value, by seeing where they allocated cap space and salary, it was a total non-match...
Guys like Derek Anderson and Jake Delhomme show up on the Top 100 "Highest Paid" list....and how how ridiculous is it that Philip Rivers was 26th in total compensation? No way he slips out of the top-10 in a real draft...
Maybe that's the real story here with the end-game being played out between Owners and players... they're just beginning to get on the same page with regard to who and what is worth what... and that involves more than a little financial shock value on both sides.

Lupes the Packers have asked their players to show up on Saturday for a meeting. Confirmed apparently from team sources. You better get the FA game started
Blas, I bet you the wine steward is hovering around waiting for Lupes to throw him a cookie to blast to LF

Hud, one of the best excercises for the back, is to stand on a step, or something about 8inches to a foot off the ground, wiff a light barbell on your shoulders (300 lbs or so)...then jump off the step, keeping your knees locked straight. The resulting kenetics and accordionings, will spurn new growff of arteries inside your spinals.

You know, people always say dogs are pretty smart,....but beg to differ: I once had a glasses/nose mask like myne avatar....and I put in on, and stood infront of my dog to see what it would do. Now, I had had this dog for years......and it was just a stupid little pair of glasses and a fake nose......no hat, nothing else to disguise myneselve,.....and my dog hopped up like I was some burglar, and went totally apesh*t ! That's all it took to make it not recognize me?

When Sunnyo and ATV argue, ATV tries to win the argument, wiff reason, and semi-sound arguements, and insults, and jabs......which means Sunnyo wins. Because everyone knows, Sunnyo is just here looking to fill his homo-erotic antagonistic spank bank by getting whomever he can to attack him, and engage him in a heated back and forth (or in and out, if you will). That's why after fighting with ATV for 15 minutes, Sunnyo abruptly leaves......because he's rolling over and going to sleep.

Hud,..is yur exercise regimen compatible with yur "condition?" As Kenny alluded to,.you could be doing more harm than good. There are subtle differences w/i the anti-inflammatory class of drugs, which does translate to different efficacy and risk factors among different people. They even work differently,..Kenny should retract that glib statement or I'll take his effin head!

BlueRidgeRon.....homosexuals AND cigarettes are called 'fags' for the same reason; in the Middle Ages, a stack of burning sticks were called 'fags'. When someone was found to be a homosexual, they were burned at the stake, with batches of sticks piled around them to fuel the fire. Hence, homosexuals were refered to with the morbid nickname 'fag' because it was the means of their execution. A cigarette being called a 'fag' is obvious enuff, due to it's similar appearance to a burning stick. But the origins of homosexuals being called fags was due to their death at the stake,....and also because they let other men put their pee-pees in their buttholes.
