See now Matt, RTK is very confused

As long as you aren’t confused … 

RTK has Jimmy Carter Syndrome … he is constantly measuring the size of his peanuts.

His current contractual reality … $4,304,000.

 

 

 

Yeah and he's only under contract one more year.  It's not a contractual reality that you are going to keep a top 3 QB in the league at $4M on his next contract.  Nor are you going to draft a QB that is going to give you a better chance to win than a Top 3 QB that is only 24 years old who has an offensive core in place for this team to win with a window of the next 3 years.  

 

But yeah, keep playing stupid.

It has been an exhausting week … wife in hospital four days with Congestive Heart Failure (CHF), plus 4 cubic yards of pea gravel to load into a wheelbarrow and transfer from the front driveway to the backyard garden.  Taxing my 75 year-old brain and muscles.  Fortunately we have a superb heart hospital in Sacramento, and they addressed the CHF issues before they became a heart attack.

Go back and read @ToastJenkins’s original comment.  Reading is fundamental.  Your reading of his words inserts both words and meaning that are not there.  Once again you are tilting at windmills and desperately trying to "be right.”  It’s pathetic.

The worst is behind us, and the manual labor loading the wheelbarrow and then walking it from front yard to backyard was actually therapeutic … but tiring nonetheless.

Thanks for reaching out.

Nice try.  You are adding ad hominem fallacies to your bag of Trix … but we all know that Trix are for Kids.

Can you name this former Eagle?

Hoping for the best for you and your wife.

Speaking of muscles, we have had a lot of things to work on around the house with a garage and basement project going on simultaneously. My 6 year old son who is a skinny pipsqueak saw me move something with ease, that he couldnt even lift. He asked how I did that with my tiny muscles. I laughed, and he said what? Your muscles are tiny. Hearing him say that I laughed harder, and he said Im serious. You have tiny muscles. How did you move that?

At least you can still move that stone with your 75 year old muscles. Mine apparently look completely incapable of accomplishing any work already.

He played in the very first Eagles game I went to … in Franklin Field.  The RB for the other team showed him up … the GOAT  RB.

I’ll give you a hint.  He had the same first name as my father in law.

Apparently according to Dallas fans there was no football championships before the SB either.

Lol, got the Buffalo LBs mixed up. We traded for Kiko Alonzo. Takeo we had back in 2007. 

That was a hell of an exchange.  Young all pro RB in an era when RBs mattered more for a declining LB.  And then somehow flipped said declining LB along with a CB on an albatross contract to move up 5 premium spots in the first round.

Id have traded Mccoy for that move up in the draft.  So that bizarre exchange was something out of the draft day movie.

Life is stranger than fiction 

I guarantee Im the only person on Earth with exactly two Eagle autographs, one being Cunningham and the other Wendell Smallwood.  

My uncle got me this as a birthday present when I was little.  For a while I thought it was fake because how he signs his last name looks like "Cujf," but thanks to the Google being invented 20 years later I think it's real so, thats cool.

I also have exactly 2 Eagles autographs. Jason Avant and Evan Mathis from training camp in 2011. It’s on an Eagles football I bought at camp. I think that was the last year at Lehigh.

You got a ticket as you came into camp and they raffled the numbers on who could get autographs from certain players that day. They weren’t even supposed to be giving autographs on that day, but they signed every single piece of anything people came up to them with until everyone was gone.

That was probably also the day I started to dislike shady and think he was a dick. He pretended to come over to the fans asking for autographs and got about 20 yards away before he turned and ran away from everyone. Never liked him after that.

Put that in a spoiler tag if you are just going to give away an answer with that hint.
