The Bizarre Tale of Corey Simon
The Bizarre Tale of Corey Simon

BleedGreen BleedGreen posted 7/2/2007 from www.bleedinggreennation.com

We all pretty much know how the story of Corey Simon started. Right here in Philadelphia when the Eagles picked him with the #6 overall pick in in the 2000 draft. In his first year he broke the Eagles' rookie sack record with 9.5 and despite not reaching that number again, he still put up 32 sacks in his first 5 years as an Eagle. A very impressive number for a DT. Then the problems started...

Sportscenter devoted an entire segment to covering the lavish wedding of Eva Longoria & Tony Parker in France. It was no mere mention of the story or a few pieces of video of Eva Longoria to look at... They actually brought on a British gossip correspondent and had the sportscenter anchor interview her for a good 5 minutes. They went over the details of how the couple had to have a civil ceremony

The curse of Billy Penn over?
The curse of Billy Penn over?

BleedGreen BleedGreen posted 6/20/2007 from www.bleedinggreennation.com

If you aren't familiar with the curse of Billy Penn here's a quick synapses... The Curse of William Penn is an alleged curse, sometimes used to explain the failure of professional sports teams based in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania to win championships since the March 1987 addition of the One Liberty Place skyscraper, which exceeded the height of William Penn's statue atop Philadelphia City Hall.

Did you know that the Patriots DE/OLB Richard Seymour was the highest paid player in the NFL last year? He made about 24.7 million bucks. The highest paid QB in football last year? Drew Brees at 22 mil. David Carr was the 4th highest paid QB. Corey Simon was the 25th highest paid player. Ouch... Here's an amazing one. Two guys on the Vikings' offensive line were among the top 5 highest paid!

Future Eagles Hall of Famers

BleedGreen BleedGreen posted 7/4/2007 from www.bleedinggreennation.com

In what is really yet another "list" column, Pete Prisco went through most of the notable veterans currently playing and gave his opinion on which are locks to go to Canton, which are on the bubble, which have a way to go, and which have no shot. In all honestly, I actually agree with his thoughts on the Eagles he included in the list.

The Body Bag Game November 12, 1990

iggle36 iggle36 posted 7/1/2007 from www.bleedinggreennation.com

A little piece of Eagles history on a Friday afternoon... November 12, 1990, Washington Redskins vs. Philadelphia Eagles, Monday Night Football. In the days leading to the clash, Eagles head coach Buddy Ryan threatened a beating so severe that "they'll have to be carted off in body bags." Ryan's words were prophetic. The Eagles defense scored three touchdowns in a 28-14 win and knocked nine ...

There were some interesting bits from McNabb's PC this week about the impact or lack thereof of rookies on this team. Does anyone else sense some frustration here? Am I reading too far into things?

An offseason list of lists

BleedGreen BleedGreen posted 7/3/2007 from www.bleedinggreennation.com

Making lists is fun, reading lists are fun. Any "how to increase traffic to your site/blog" article will always tell you to make lists. "The top 5 reasons blah blah... The 8 best blah blahs of all time..." So in a time such as now when the NFL news cycle has more or less screeched to a halt, everyone is making lists. Come to to think of it, maybe I should make my own list... Of lists.

How the mighty have fallen... Vick indicted, Culpepper cut

BleedGreen BleedGreen posted 7/18/2007 from www.bleedinggreennation.com

At the end of 2004, you could certainly see 3 of the top 5 QBs in the game were Mike Vick, Daunte Culpepper, & Donovan McNabb. McNabb was in the Superbowl, Vick in the NFC title game, Culpepper coming off a 39 TD season... Since then, it's all went downhill for these 3. Some worse than others.

Who were those guys in Blue and Yellow today? It certianly wasn't the same Eagles offense that showed up in weeks one & two. They hang 56 on the Lions, set a team record for the most points in a half, didn't punt until the 3rd quarter, and racked up 536 yards of total offense. This is the most points the Eagles offense have scored since they put 58 on who? That would be these same Detroit ...

Don't adjust your set this weekend, the Eagles are not playing the St Louis Rams... These are the NY Jets throwbacks the team is wearing to celebrate the NFL's 75th anniversary. The colors are those worn by the New York Titans. The team began in 1960 as a charter member of the American Football League under the name New York Titans. It was renamed after Sonny Werblin bought the team in 1963. The J

I have to admit, I do find this somewhat intriguing... What about one guy on your team with a C on his chest? The NFL's Player Advisory Council made up of current Eagles Takeo Spikes and former Eagles James Thrash and Troy Vincent presented an interesting idea to the commissioner to better recognize and emphasize the role of team captains. The thought seems to be in many ways to use the ...

Local Newspaper blatantly misleads about Andrews injury

I've tried my best to present all the sides and scenarios of this Shawn Andrews injury mystery. We know what Andrews said, we know what the team has said, we've heard from a number of reporters who claim sources within the team that have told them different things. What I haven't done was try to be sensational for the sake of being sensational. Unfortunately, the Philadelphia Daily News has.
