Donovan McNabb released his first post-draft blog entry on Yardbarker. You can read the whole thing over there, but here are a few tidbits:
“Make no mistake, I’ve been training like crazy to make sure that I can improve as a quarterback and do everything necessary to try and win a championship for this city. I said it before, I was inspired by the way the Phillies won the World Series and how they were treated by the City and their fans and I want to experience that myself in the worst way.”
Translation: The only way I’ll earn everyone’s respect is if I win a title.
“You’ll notice that I am ready to move forward. I’m the first to admit that you must learn from your failures, I also believe that you cannot change the past. It’s time to focus on the future.”
Translation: I’m still not happy about being benched, but it’s time to move on.
“As with every minicamp since I’ve been in the league, I’m excited about meeting my new teammates, getting to know them and working together on the field. We now have a lot of new, young skill position players and it will be exciting and interesting to see how they become acclimated to what we do here. If they can come in here and take their game to the next level, they will be productive pros and we can achieve great successes together. I want to welcome the new rookies and am excited to get to work with them.”
Translation: If these new kids can play, we could be special. If they can’t, we’re totally screwed.
“Stacey Andrews and Jason Peters are young, athletic and physical. They will help in both the passing and running game.”
Translation: I hope these guys are worth $100 million.
All kidding aside, it’s nice to hear from DMac.
