Shooting his shot 

true or not, tranny or real woman, people have ZERO shame anymore.  The amount of people who share their sexual activity, things they've done or are willing to do on social media is unbelievable.  Then you consider the fact that these people actually have influence over what young people think and it's scary.  

Also,  whatever the F she is, she's hideous.  How the article starts out by saying a "beautiful transgender model" is beyond me. 

This is not beautiful

It doesn't matter what Wentz wants, if Howie decides the offers aren't good enough, he stays. At worst he's a very expensive #2, but no more expensive than if they cut him.

And what is Wentz going to do? Pout? Retire? Screw up the rest of his career by half assing it with a new HC?

The GM is almost always the bad cop (maybe not with Belichick), and the HC the good cop. The GM refuses to pay what players want, he tells them they're not as good as they think they are, he trades players, he cuts players - of course GMs are disliked!

But why should Howie give two figs for Wentz's feelings, you want to be a prima donna, go out and play like a top QB and everyone will put up with you being an a-hole.

So Wentz has only one realistic choice, work his butt off, fix his mechanics and win the starting job.

Meh Ben has been playing well.  Hell I'll buy her a ticket.

I have 0 sympathy for this ****.  If he even attempted to make his game better in the last few years, maybe I would have a little sympathy.  F him!

Everyone is accountable - except Howie.

Let's revisit this conversation when we get to round 2 of the playoffs and the 4th quarter comes around.

People just don't want to accept this. There's a definite possibility both 11 and 2 are on the Team at the start of camp along with another one.

This isn't Phil Simms.  If you watched the Superbowl, that defense Tampa was playing would be unrecognizable under the old guard .

But it worked.

That would be such a mess but I honestly could see Howie going for it

A RB coming off an achilles injury should have the perfect amount of burst needed to fill the shoes vacated by Corey Clement.  Maybe he can return kicks too.

I mean he's been a tremendous defensive presence and shut down Harden in their last game.  I'm not sure that he has to remain celibate or that I care what he does in his private life.

If their intent was to have a QB competition they went about it wrong

And Wentz sitting behind Hurts would be an abomination.  The team would be an absolute circus.  Good idea for a young new coach

Meh call me superstitious. Don't get up for a beer when your team is driving, don't wash a lucky jersey after a big win, and don't switch from hot dogs to tacos if you're on track to win DPOY 🤷‍♂️

Howie Roseman in his role as Eagles GM, head of the Front Office and Final Roster Decisions, enjoys infallibility in virtue of his office, when, as supreme GM and decider of all of the players, coaches or other persons employed by the team.

Probably fake, and even if it's real not really excited about a guy with a long injury history. I was a HUGE Marlon mack fan in that draft, his injury issues really came out of nowhere. He had a ton of potential but too many injuries. No thanks. Now if Myles Gaskin gets away from the dolphins somehow...

So no one really wants Carson  Wentz huh?  The only teams willing to trade for him are offering pennies. I’m shocked....

Honestly i don’t really care what he does as long as he comes and plays like he does when we face good teams like the lakers. If he plays aggressive I’m happy. I do think he needs to learn to shoot but i think bigger issue right now is playing aggressive consistently. The shot was always going to take more time and likely years.

I turn the game on mute as a superstition. I started it in 2017.

I disagree. Teams/agents will leak that info and then use that leaked info to attempt to drive up the price. Happens in trade talk. Happens in FA. 

I don't think it drives up the price.  I think media may think it and maybe agents want to make it seem like there's a ton of interest but I just don't think it really is a strategy that teams think impacts the market.  Again, would you spend millions of dollars based upon some NFL report? I wouldn't and I can't imagine a GM being so careless that they would.

I'm starting to think it's fake and they are framing him.  Ben Simmons still sucks.  Yeah he is ok right now but will shrink up like a frightened turtle in the playoffs and any good team will completely expose him in the 4th quarter.  We will be playing 4 on 5 in the half court.

Honestly people get irritated with Ben and i get there at times. But I’ve said this a ton of times if he just played ultra-aggressive every night people wouldn’t be nearly as ticked off cause at 6’10 with his size and speed he easily could get 4-6 dunks and layups a night and likely 8-10 FTs consistently. To me the shooting was always going to take years to develop and just be average. However being aggressive shouldn’t. He easily just being aggressive could average 16-18ppg

You need to stop.  The luck ran out on the mute button.  Probably should buy a new remote or TV.

Might happen. Might also happen that tobias harris when the playoffs come around and the intensity is increased have the same issue. I don’t think there’s any one player besides embiid you can trust in the playoffs consistently

Oh I agree. Ben, do what you want buddy.  I just mean in general.  There's a certain part of society that lives on social media and has no shame sharing any and everything.
