McNabb to be booed (again)

Return of the "Dirty Thirty"

Basic story: the guys who booed McNabb when he was drafted are getting back together to do it again.

Words from the prime organizer...

“I don’t like Donovan McNabb, because I always felt he was a phony,” Cataldi said. “He’s always been passive-aggressive, which doesn’t resonate well with the fans of this city. That’s my problem with him. We never connected to the fans in this town. They only wanted one thing from McNabb, a championship. Look at those great Flyers teams of the 1970s. They won championships and never had to buy another dinner in this town again. With all that talent, McNabb never delivered.”

McNabb may have his shortcomings, but he's still arguably the most successful Eagle quarterback of all time. And it's not like he asked to be sent to the Redskins.

Eagle fans should be saying "thanks for the memories", but I'm not holding my breath for that to happen.

lol this is such a joke.

the dirty 30 was always just one big joke then they were made into superstars. cataldi is the morning radio host up here and he has always hated mcnabb and has to be pretty emotional about it to get his ratings.

its funny because he is actually a really decent guy but plays this idiotic philadelphia fan base so well.

however, my thoughts on the booing are this: if i was at the stadium i would cheer him if he gets introduced. i think 75% of the people will do the same on sunday but the national media will only hear the 25% that is booing. and this thread will be updated, oh those animals in philly.

Last time I checked, Randall Cunningham was still well-beloved in Phili yet he didn't bring them a Super Bowl. McNabb is without a doubt the best Phili QB EVER. Period. This jackass is a pissy bitch. I bet he wasn't bitching when McNabb led them to the Super Bowl

Don't know if I agree with that. The Eagles have a couple of QB's in the Hall of Fame. And Jaworski was pretty good, especially considering he played in an era in which the defense could hit both the Qb's and receivers a lot more than they are allowed to now.

Give em credit. The pre-game ovation was nice. The booing in-game I understand.

Guess the "Dirty Thirty" aren't as influential as they thought :D

Can't say much for the Eagle fans on Fox pre-game, mind you, but then that's probably what they were looking for when they came up with that bit.

      Why do people think Bryce Young won this game yesterday?

      By MechaZain · Posted

      I think we have some revisionist around it here because of all the drama around Tepper's involvement. If you pull up any scouting report from the time you'll see the same take. WalterFootball's report sums up the media's thoughts on him well: "Young has everything the NFL is looking for in a quarterback except in terms of weight and height." He was the consensus top QB of his draft and the only real question mark they had about him was whether his body could hold up in the NFL. The infamous Steph Curry comparison the Panthers latched onto came from Albert Breer. The excuses I've heard for him are more anecdotal. Bryce Young's development is the only bullet point most NFL fans have on the Panthers right now. That and the coaching turnover. If you're not actually watching our games it's easy to believe this is just a dysfunctional organization that doesn't know how to unleash this talented Heisman winner.  I've seen media and fans alike run with that narrative way more than criticizing Young outright. Whenever we win there's flocks who use it as proof that the Panthers just need to be patient.

      So maybe 1-3 vs playoff teams, going by standings as of today. I guess that is an improvement.  We are just about improved enough to be in purgatory draft wise. It really isn’t so bad in the 1st unless you really want that top QB or maybe edge guy because there are usually plenty of good players at the top but it hurts you some as get deeper in the draft.
