Article:McNabb has the love of Philly fans everywhere...Yeah right.

So, I went wandering around one day and well into the night. I was on a mission, a mission to find out what the fans of Philadelphia were thinking about the Eagles upcoming draft choices and their overall opinions. Needless to say, I'm a tad disappointed and not entirely surprised at the power the media has over my fellow fans. Here's a few random quotes I got from some people.(Some of these are censored, I used nicer words....):

"McNabb is just terrible, him and Reid both need to go. McNabb is nothing but an over-hyped less athletic Michael Vick. He can't hit open receivers, he can't run and he's always injured."

"Screw McNabb He's a bum. He was never good."

"McNabb should be traded off for whatever we can get and start Kolb right away. He's much better than mcNabb and will grow throughout the year."

Sad isn't it? THe three quotes represent the most common eagle fans I encountered, the somewhat intelligent but-still-doesn't-know-much fan. the "OMG MCNABB SUX" fan, and the "I'm entirely unaware of things around me" fan. I don't see why people hate on McNabb? Sure, if you read into my past posts I've been frustrated with McNabb. Mere frustration is much more understandable and expected over the typical stupidity generated by most Eagle fans. These same fans, who insisted we pick Ricky Williams over McNabb. The same Eagles fans who cheered Mike Mamula. It sickens me to even mention the type of Idiocy represented when Irvin went down and did not get back up. Forget throwing things at Santa, that's nothing to the inexcusable cheering of an injured player on the field, rival or not. Did the opposing team's fans Cheer when Kevin Everett went down? No. Come on Philly, show some class and intelligence. I've defend you long enough but after seeing everything I have I'm tired of being corralled into the same unintelligent muck we call Eagles Fandom.

The draft choosing was even more enjoyable, I lost the quotes I had written down, but from general memory most involved "trade McNabb and draft Brohm." Why? Not one single Philadelphia Eagles fan has ever, EVER given me a valid reason as to why McNabb should be traded. This is the same QB that won six straight NFC East titles, taken us to four NFC Championships, and to one Super Bowl. Brian Brohm is overrated anyway. Word of advice, don't praise McNabb, you life will be threatened, mine was. Haha!

Verdict: McNabb ends his career in Philly, Kolb is not the answer and the Eagles trade up and draft DE Long.
