Could be a steal if he can stay healthy. Apparently they asked him about his health and he said he is 100% and that the Eagles wouldn't have signed him if he wasn't.
Keep in mind Eagles now have a completely new training staff plus guys to do some new sports science voodoo. Hopefully they did their hw.
We sucked and probably won't be good this year either but no turmoil with DJAX that I know off. Or turmoil in general. Everyone seems mostly optimistic and just happy for something new.

Colts messageboard rumored names (yeah, take that for what you will) seems to be actually around Jeremy Maclin (also on Philly boards) and Doug Baldwin from SEA.

I wonder if Kraft is able to fly when he blows shit out of his ass at this rate.

I wonder if American girls are dumber (easier) than Dutch/Euro girls. Some scientist should investigate this.
Lol, seriously

More Kraft :
So much info, this is new.

As much as Matty Lice is a cowardly cowardly qb, he'd be by far the best QB you've had since Marino. There's no guarantee Tannehill improves upon his rookie year.

I don't care how good he is (even setting aside his playoff issues), I just don't like him. I know it's probably hard to understand when your team's QB is Tom Brady but I appreciate a certain level of character in whoever's leading my team of choice.
Man, I wish I could say this and honestly believe myself but I can't. Not yet, anyway. I wouldn't mind switching receivers with the Falcons, though.

Kraft: "I don't answer to Tom Brady."
lulz. And holy fuck is Amendola going to catch the ire of Pats fans. Already labeled as the guy they didn't really want and they haven't even had mini-camp
I imagine it's been some sort of civil war with other Phins fans or outsiders saying they should have taken him. I sort of agree with Darkest_Red. They were better off taking Long since Ireland couldn't draft and the coaches couldn't develop WRs

The worst football related memory I have is the VT game where Matt Ryan led BC back from a 10-0 deficit with about 5 minutes left in the game. I was at the game, soaking wet and cold, standing at the fence ready to rush the field and then that happened.
I never claimed to be completely rational with my hatreds of choice.
Oh, right. Yeah, that would do it. That BC team was shittastic. I didn't give a shit about Ryan that year until that absurd throw to the front right pylon against GTech, while he got nailed in the chin. I still can't find video of that play to this day, which is a huge indictment to BC "fans."
I woke up today, and realized what the fuck are the Pats going to do with their WR situation. Don't really mind they let Welker go, but releasing Lloyd was moronic. They don't have any other legit WRs on the team.
Only way Amendola can look good is making a clutch catch in the playoffs, but during the regular season he is going to get killed if he doesn't produce like Welker did or the offense struggles.

Hmm, I don't remember that one specifically. At the time they were #2 in the country (somehow) and we were #8. The old adage, "prevent defense prevents you from winning" applies very well to what happened there.
That game had all kinds of "everything that can go wrong will go wrong" moments though, like one of our receivers botching a recovery on BC's onside kick. It was so painful, man. So, so, painful.
I think it's fate that Wes Welker left New England.
I was at a Futureshop playing a demo of Madden 13 on the vita and I was using the Pats.
1st and 10 on my own 40 I had Welker wide open. I am about to throw and suddenly the entire screen goes yellow, when it comes back all of a sudden I have committed a safety and Wes Welker has a broken fibula.
Even on the replay the same yellow flash popped up.

Kraft was appearently going balls deep into Welkers agent, David Dunn. Add him to the list of agent that the Pats won't deal with anymore.
I'm open to Amendola, and would cheer for him with all my heart. Salty towards the Pats/Welker/His agent. But can't blame Amendola.
:jnc. You're talking about character issues? In professional football? Marino is definitely a paragon of virtue. I'm sure you dislike him now with siring out of wedlock!!!
EA is spending no resources on the Vita for the most part. I've heard Most Wanted is good.

Wildcard berths that can't beat teams without a winning record should have homefield advantage

I agree. I was really hoping the Vita would become my go-to platform for sports games but it obviously hasn't worked out that way. FIFA 13 was a port of the first FIFA game on the Vita and Madden 13 was a horribly optimized version of Madden 12 (or something like that).
I would totally buy an NHL game on the Vita if it was actually well made.
Haha, yeah I'm only being half serious. I was pretty disappointed to hear about that Marino fiasco, though. My main reasons for disliking Ryan are obviously much less rational.
The same could be said about Sony. They aren't really doing shit for the Vita. Most of their good first party studios aren't even interested in the machine. It's depressing that I can only really think of one maybe two games I want for the Vita this year.
Agreed
At this point I would take a shitty port of any NHL game for the Vita.

Press Conference right now.
They also are setting up an independent licensing agency for retired players to continue to fund the common good fund.
All players have access, even if they have only played one game.
Believe me. I get it. I like Bledsoe more than Brady. Mostly because Bledsoe didn't bitch like an asshole after something didn't go his way.
Save a lot of money by putting one of the rookies at LT and then finding a serviceable guy at RT, plus get a draft pick in exchange

Either Megatron or Fitz would be such an albatross of a contract, that I can't imagine many teams would want them at that price.
I remember Desean having contract issues a season or two ago. I was just somewhat anticipating a complete rebuild of the Eagles and trading franchise players for value and starting over somewhat. That's probably a bit drastic though.
Both of those guys are pretty young so that wouldn't be such a bad value for the Colts.

Kraft tells Marvez, "His financial people played poker. They overplayed hand." Kraft says Welker/Patriots are both the "losers" as result.
So Pats "lost" b/c they signed Amendola? Good luck Danny!

Goodell says he has told #Redskins directly their salary cap penalty won't be changed.

Hmm... interesting. I guess the idea would be to play him across from Wake for a year or two while you develop a DE from the draft. Then again, Wake's not much younger than Osi.

Just an alternative!
Kraft should've stopped talking. Childish "he said/she said" -bullshit. And like you said, disrespectuful to Amendola.
To build a stadium in Chavez Ravine would take at least 10 years. LA is now useless as leverage against any team trying to get a stadium built, unless the owner wants to play in the Rose Bowl or The Coliseum
You're supposed to hate Kraft, I guess.
Because of Welker wanting to sign with another team? :jnc
