Well, this sucks. Per PFT (via Howard Eskin of 610 WIP), Eagles Flight Night! proved costly. Starting middle linebacker Stewart Bradley heard a “pop.” That pop was a torn ACL. He’s done for the 2009 season.
I hope Omar Gaither is ready to fill the void. You had to know the train of positivity would be derailed at some point. Such is life for an Iggles fan. Per usual, the Birds have yet to confirm the report.
Update: As of 4:15pm, still no word from the Birds on Stew. In fact, according to PE.com’s “Bloghead,” Reid was perturbed with reporters for going behind his back to ask players/personnel about the injury. He referred to it as a “breach of trust.” Hmm… If the reports are untrue, why not just deny them?
This seems to be more of a control issue with Reid. He wants everything, including season-ending injuries, kept in-house until he’s good and ready to divulge them. Sorry pal, this is the age of Twitter. As least address the story. Don’t just ignore its existence. If you’re performing another MRI or getting a second opinion on the severity, just let us know. Is that asking too much? Fans care too, Andy.
