This is getting so stupid. It's only a matter of time before Wentz or another starting QB has to sit a game because of a temperature and the season is going to be a joke. 

 One Eagle gets it after partying or hooking up with the wrong girl and 5 starters on defense or half the OL is out.

    I mentioned this previously on this board, and in the past years ago on the other board.   I'm not sure Howie has ever come out and said it this plainly, but Howie is telling the truth here.

I don't even want to hear about that it's harder for them to breathe in them. Right now they can cancel the whole season and I really don't care. Cancel the season pay the players zero dollars and let's get rolling next year.

On a side note, fantasy football is going to be a disaster this year.

Geoff Schwartz (former offensive lineman who is Jewish) said that he didn't expect many to come out against DeSean's comments. That there's a lot of underlying anti-Semitism within the players of the league. He talked about how a lot of players were oblivious or ignorant to his religion and mentioned a time when he was in the cafeteria with a player who told him if he wanted to be saved he needed to convert and if he didn't he was going to hell.

And? I don't think that's antisemitic is it?

Some did, but no where near the extent of DeSean. Praising Farrakhan doesn't drive the clicks of quoting Hitler, I guess. 

I honestly believe it’s cause most of American society uneducated to the extent of his history and only seen the Netflix documentary on him. Heck there’s few in the US that know how the Black Hebrew Israelites began or that it’s considered an extremist group 

I think the Malik Jackson comments are going to be pretty illuminating for the Eagles. Unless the organization has the same type of reaction that it had towards DJax, then it's pretty obvious that all the stern talking points over Desean were nothing more than PR

Sounds like the same thing ive heard from many religions, dont think its anti semitic just repeating the same thing that has been said thousands of years by many religions.

Im LDS, im also of scottish irish descent, if someone told me i was going to hell if i didnt convert to their religion i wouldnt claim they were racist or anti scotts-irish.

I think too many play the anti semitic card when its not warranted. I think their are absolute times when doing so is warranted and i think their is a fine line between the differences that need to be treated with caution.

I mean the guy asked hum how do you feel about going to hell if you don’t convert. He said Jews don’t believe in hell. And then the player asked him what about your son going to hell.

Just out of curiosity do they trace back through Ishmael or is the claim that Abraham and Isaac were black? I'm just curious.  

Lurie and Howie’s blood must be boiling over 2 guys who made $20m last year to play 2 combined games and then turn the team upside down with 2 tweets.  I’m sure they can’t wait to sign their checks this year.   
 

Safe to say neither will be here in 2021.

The two guys running this team are Jewish.  Despite the personal offense, I’d bet they both just want this to go away more than anything.  But it is personal for them, so they do have some skin in the game with how it’s handled.

It's not going to happen and at this point, I am not sure I care. 

 

My biggest fears are:

Me losing my job and our house.....

My nephew not getting to play football in his senior year of HS.

My daughter not going back to college. 

Those fears are way more important than the NFL and the millionaire/billionaire cry babies.

let me find the article that talks about it cause it’ll explain it better than I can. I’ll try to find the article last night. Was reading more and more about them to understand better.

Ive wondered the same what their claimed lineage is?

I mean that's a lot of Evangelical Christianity in the South in particular.

I know growing up when I learned about it we were told by rabbis we don’t believe in hell. But as i got older and studied. They do but it’s not the hell thats typically portrayed. 
 

pretty good answer from a rabbi.

My favorite Eagles podcasts are Kist and Solak, BLG and Kempski, and Birds with Friends.

Edit: I forgot Inside the Birds. 

Yeah I'm a fan of all those though I don't listen every week to BWFs.

6. Eagles (HC Doug Pederson)

4th Down Aggressiveness: 2nd

Pass Rate on Early Downs: 10th

Pass Rate While Trailing: 31st

Play-Action Rate: 7th

Downfield Pass Rate: 23rd

Middle of the Field Pass Rate: 21st

Pre-Snap Motion Percentage: 26th

Outside Run Rate: 3rd

Shotgun Run Rate: 8th

Offensive Pace: 17th

Pederson does a lot of things right. He’s aggressive on fourth downs (2nd), uses play action at a high rate (7th), and lets his running backs find space by rushing to the outside (3rd) and from shotgun (8th). Still, there’s some room for improvement. Of course, the Eagles’ receiver injuries affected this last season, but Philly shouldn’t have been 31st in pass rate while trailing in 2019, nor should they be using pre-snap motion at the 26th-highest rate. With more speed at receiver, Pederson could increase the Eagles’ rankings in both metrics, which would vault them into Tier 1 next offseason.

I don't think the higher ones have had to deal with as many injuries as Doug

It's kind of crossing a boundary in the workplace especially if you don't invite the conversation.

So Jewish hell is like purgatory.

Neither here nor there....but...

The owners, obviously, are the billionaires.  Say what you want about the owners (greedy, manipulative, etc), but they are not crybabies.  That’s because they are intelligent and know not to complain.  
 

The millionaires, the players, are not.  97% of them will not be millionaires within 10 years of retirement and will be left with no skill to earn money.  That’s on them for spending their millions on frivolous depreciable assets right now.  Their tone deaf cries about money now are sad precursors to real problems in the future.
