A bit off topic but...who wants a bazillion Eagles topics anyway..;)...Reid went OFF on the media for leaking the Bradley thing. I agree with him from what I have read of the sitch. JR? What think you of that?

I think Andy is a control freak when it comes to media info (Like most coaches). He is horrible with the media so I don't blame the media for not doing him any favors. It wsn't like they were releasing a secret, the media guy (Eskin) was just breaking a story that was going to be told anyway. No harm no foul. It's Reid's own fault for making Eskin an insider because honestly he (Eskin) is quite an a$$hole. Bottom line, media was just doing their job.

You mean there was actually more to it than the blurbs I read? Say it ain't so! :eek:

What I read made it sound like it was leaked out.

Technically the teams don't have to disclose any injury info in TC though I believe.

I don't know all the details but that is what I got out of it. One of Andy's guys released some info a bit early to Eskin before the "official" announcement was made. Eskin reported it to his radio station, PFT picked it up, then all the calls started coming in to the Eagles from other media sources wanting confirmation. This of course pissed Andy off and he went off.

This TC is a real disaster so far in so many ways.

On the original story of this thread. Supposedly Parker was a passenger in a car at 1am, that had no lights on, and ran through a red light and then the car was pulled over and the marijuana was found. Brilliant.....he is old enough to know better. YOU ARE IN A SMALL TOWN FOR TRAINING CAMP YOU IDIOT!!!!

I think the JJ thing will work in your favor, guys banding together and whatnot. I remember stories from Mike Golic about that player dying that everyone loved (Brown) seemed to do that for them. They had a great year that year on D did they not?

Juqua Parker-Thomas, whatever the hell he's calling himself these days IS obviously what he smokes. LP

i don't think pot is a big deal, but for an athlete to do it while at training camp when he needs to be in his best condition is mind blowing. its smoke and will affect your endurance, sleep schedule, and a number of other things. i would think any athlete with a shot at a professional team would keep stuff like this in the offseason.

The JJ thing didn't worry me to much, nor did losing Dawkins in the off season....

The one that kills me is Stewart Bradley .....I don't think most people realize what him being on the field meant to that defense. Regardless, key injuries happen to every team so the next guy (whether it be Mays or Gaither) needs to step up his game and get out there and play. People are also starting to throw out Derrick Brook's name ......I don't see that happening since they just signed Wilhelm for depth but who knows....

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By JawnyBlaze · Posted

      It wasn’t completely his fault, but outside of two throws and one or two scrambles he didn’t do much to help. His accuracy was all over the place, numerous passes that were placed poorly and didn’t give the receiver a good chance to catch the ball or do anything with it after. He also continues to display terrible pocket awareness. Even the sacks could have been avoided, they weren’t immediate like the pressure we got on Shough at times. Bryce just often has no feel for pressure and stands there waiting to get sacked after numerous seconds have passed.

      I really fuging hate this era in so many ways.  I look at those Adin Ross and Neon kids, and I just wonder why tf are they famous?  Why would anyone be desperate enough to gain THAT audience that they’d risk money, career, disciplinary action to go up there and associate with those fuging dweebs?  And back in my day, racist peers got their ass beat.  And not endorsing or approving bully culture, but checks and balances and all…  had those two been bullied, or at the very least humbled, they wouldn’t be famous and glorified for being the fuging idiots they are now.  It seriously pisses me off… they both have done and said multiple, openly racist stuff and major media keeps pushing them, talking about them, and propping them up… and then dummies like Puka who don’t need the platform or exposure lend their celebrity to them.  fuging idiot… and even the other streamers, I don’t get - Speed, Kai…  I don’t understand making nobodies famous at all, but there is at least entertainment value to some degree there, and I could see how young, impressionable kids would find them something to aspire to (sadly), or view as “cool.”  But Ross and Neon?  They’re just shitty, shitty nerds with big ass mouths. I’ve went back recently and watched some classics (in two very different eras and categories 😂)  like Robocop and Idiocracy.  And what I find fascinating is how both movies illustrate how stupid society became by showing what the citizenry is entertained by.  In both, society became anti-intellectual and the citizenry were entertained by lowest denominator, primal-type absurdity - poo like, “Ouch! My Balls!”  Or on Robocop, a guy is a watching a show where they are smashing cakes on ladies’ breasts and then a guy says a line as the camera zooms in like, “I’d buy that for a dollar!” and the audience thinks it’s hilarious.  That’s where I feel like we are now.  Like who watches that clip with Puka and thinks any of that poo is funny or cool?  If I was Puka, I’d honestly be wondering why tf I’m hanging out with these beta ass, racist, cretin ass weirdos.
