NFL players today love their video games. So much so that they are entering themselves in tournaments across the land. The Eagles own DeSean Jackson was in L.A. last week to participate in the Battlefield Bracket Challenge Presented by GameStop.
He, along with other athletes and celebs such as Chad Ochocinco and the lovely Stacy Keibler, [...]

With the announcement that the Panthers will not franchise tag Julius Peppers, look for the rumors linking him to the Eagles to heat up. Even at 30, expect Peppers to get a handsome payday from whichever team offers him a contract. I just hope that team isn’t our beloved Birds.
I wanted Peppers last season, but [...]

Brian Westbrook was many things during his days as an Eagle: explosive runner, dynamic receiver, one-man highlight reel, go-to weapon and team leader are just a few of the hats that he willingly wore.
He was one of the most professional and dedicated players I’ve ever seen. Even during his contract squabbles, he remained classy and [...]

Well, it happened. The Eagles have cut ties with Brian Westbrook. I’m somewhat surprised by the timing, but evidently the sooner the better. If Westy wants to continue his playing career, he’ll now have the opportunity to catch on elsewhere. Here’s what Andy Reid had to say about Westbrook:

Some fans got pretty angry, and I couldn’t really blame them. Why keep a guy who wasn’t even activated for most [...]

Guys like DT Justin [...]

The Eagles and potential free agent bust Stacy Andrews might be on their way to an impasse. Pay him his $4.1 million roster bonus due in April, or tell him he’s not worth it and demand he stop stealing cash. Or they could give him his bonus, but only on the condition he rework his [...]

When I first read the “report” regarding the so-called contract talks that were supposedly going on between the Eagles and quarterback Kevin Kolb, I said to myself, “Man, this would be a major story if Adam Schefter had written it.”
Alas, Adam didn’t pen it. Nor did Chris Mortensen or Jay Glazer. Nah, it was one [...]
