Now that the Eagles have shown their colors, people see things through my "negative” critical eye mostly across the board.

If I could get everyone to acknowledge and agree with one last unpopular and negative view...it would be that Fulgham sucks.  He’s not good, never was, and likely never will be.  Move on.  

You shut your mouth! Fulgham is still the goat 🥺 

 

Lol you’re probably right but it was fun while it lasted... How sad is it that Eagles fans have been deprived of good WR play for so long that we are eager to proclaim anyone who goes over 100 yards "the goat” 

RIP "Fulgoat” oct 4 2020 - nov 1 2020

The list is soooooo long already 

VA can implement a plug-in for the board that also ignores quotes from people who are on the list. Problem is that it would need to be bought again if the board gets upgraded again

There's no need for that type of stuff, imo.  Carson Wentz has always been a professional to the fans/media and he's given back to the community.  Whether you like him or not he should be treated with the same respect that he's treated the fans, imo.

And people worry that Wentz is suffering the ill effects of a concussion.

Great, now he's ruined.

The CB group is really thin now.  Only a bunch of inexperienced players.  There will be warm bodies on the field, but not sure how to defend the WRs of the Cardinals.  Maybe they could move a WR to play CB, ala the Patriots some seasons ago.

Pryor at RT also seems a problem.  But then he is the one with most game experience at RT.  This is a dreadful situation.

I’m guessing he means provide energy. However he could also mean he wants to be a eggnog latte.  Could really go either way 

 

I believe it's in reference to this story:

 

 

A young woman went to her mother and told her about her life and how things were so hard for her.  She did not know how she was going to make it and wanted to give up.  She was tired of fighting and struggling.  It seemed as one problem was solved a new one arose.

Her mother took her to the kitchen.  She filled three pots with water.  In the first, she placed carrots, in the second she placed eggs, and the last she placed ground coffee beans.

She let them sit and boil without saying a word.  In about twenty minute she turned off the burners.  She fished the carrots out and placed them in a bowl.  She pulled the eggs out and placed them in a bowl.  Then she ladled the coffee into a bowl.  Turning to her daughter, she asked, "Tell me what you see?”

"Carrots, eggs, and coffee,” she replied.

She brought her closer and asked her to feel the carrots.  She did and noted that they were soft.  She then asked her to take an egg and break it.  After pulling off the shell, she observed the hard-boiled egg.  Finally, she asked her to sip the coffee.  The daughter smiled, as she tasted its rich aroma.

The daughter then asked, "What’s the point, mother?”

Her mother explained that each of these objects had faced the same adversity… boiling water – but each reacted differently.  The carrot went in strong, hard, and unrelenting.  However, after being subjected to the boiling water, it softened and became weak.  The egg had been fragile.  Its thin outer shell had protected its liquid interior.  But, after being through the boiling water, its inside became hardened.  The ground coffee beans were unique, however.  After they were in the boiling water they had changed the water.

"Which are you?” she asked the daughter.  "When adversity knocks on your door, how do you respond?  Are you a carrot, an egg, or a coffee bean?”

Think of this:  Which am I?

Am I the carrot that seems strong, but with pain and adversity, do I wilt and become soft and lose my strength?

Am I the egg that starts with a malleable heart, but changes with the heat?  Did I have a fluid spirit, but after death, a break up, a financial hardship, or some other trial, have I become hardened and stiff?  Does my shell look the same, but on the inside am I bitter and tough with a stiff spirit and a hardened heart?

Or am I like the coffee bean?  The bean actually changes the hot water, the very circumstance that brings the pain.  When the water gets hot, it releases the fragrance and flavor.  If you are like the bean, when things are at their worst, you get better and change the situation around you.

When the hours are the darkest and trials are their greatest do you elevate to another level?

How do you handle adversity?

ARE YOU A CARROT, AN EGG, OR A COFFEE BEAN?

Nope. Tired of "trade back” scenarios. Pick a goddamn good player wherever we’re picking. 

The Eagles need to put themselves in a position for a QB in 2022. If Wentz is half as bad as he is now this time next year, he’s done. Hurts is a fast Tyrod Taylor. 
 

I think there’s something at least a 50/50 chance that the starting QB going into 2022 is not currently on the roster.

If Carson Wentz is traded, I 100% agree with this.

Too homespun for my tastes...

Besides, isn't the coffee bean ultimately ground up and discarded?

Why yes, yes it is.  Normally after being roasted, then ground... then exposed to hot water, it is ultimately discarded.  

 

In my case, I feed it to my worms and/or compost bin.

 

 

 

I'm guessing he will get one of these jobs.

Tough choice, Watson on a mega deal or your choice of rookie QB not named Lawrence and a ton of draft capital. Lions job has nothing going for it..
