knowin the Philadelphia Eagles, they're always makin some changes...just recently they picked up DE Antwan Barnes from the Baltimore Ravens. supposedly, they been eyein him since the '07 but the Ravens picked him in the 4th round. now Barnes gets to be an Eagle and we gave up another 2011 draft pick...yay? but as the deadline approached, the Eagles made their cuts and not to my suprises, i was pretty close

players that got cut were: Jeff Owens, Chad Hall, Fenuki Tupou, A.Q. Shipley, Cornelius Ingram (called it! too injury prone), Dallas Reynolds, Victor Harris, Kelley Washington, Eric Moncur, Quintin Demps, Jordan Norwood (picked up on the practice squad of the Cleveland Browns)

LB Tracy White got traded to the New England Patriots and G Stacy Andrews got traded to the Seattle Seahawks (which by the way released WR T.J. Houshmandzadeh!)

i liked Hall and Mallett but weren't surprised they got cut...but Andrews, Harris, and Demps i'm EXCITED they did - boo and woo-hoo!!

on the brighter side, the Birds signed 8 to the practice squad includin: WR Chad Hall (yay!), RB Martell Mallett (yay!), DT Jeff Owens, C A.Q. Shipley, G Dallas Reynolds, and 3 new people TE Garret Mills, WR Jeremy Williams and S Chip Vaughn

nothin is garaunteed in the NFL

wow...1st Kim Kardashian, now the Heisman Trophy

Reggie Bush stay losin stuff...

accordin to rivals.com, the New Orleans Saints runningback might/may/will be stripped of his Heisman Trophy that he won back in 2005
it seems that the NCAA is crackin down on the USC Trojans football program because they found some major violations within it so Bush was/could be ineligable to received it. damn...oh well

DAMN! T.I. coulda done better...

sorry but T.I.'s wife, Tiny Cottle, may be the nicest, sweetest person in the world but when they got busted for weed - their mugshot were HORRIBLE! well, just Tiny's
sorry but that's very disturbin...

it's ok, because i like chinese food



so Floyd Mayweather realized that he has too much money, and too much time on his hand so he decided to make a video for Manny Pacquiao. in it - he dissed Pacquiao about the fight that never happened, claimin that Pacquiao backed out/didn't wanna take a drug test. then Mayweather got classy with it and tell Manny that he'll beat his ass and Manny will served him dog fried rice afterward (actually i didn't watch the video but that's what the site i got it from said)

NOW i'm all for people sayin whatever they feel/want without the fear of hurtin someone's feelin but when i saw this video on, MediaTakeOut a popular black blog site...it was kinda one-sided feelin. everytime there's somethin regardin Mayweather vs Pacquiao, it's always about Manny backin out when Dan Rafael of ESPN.com stated that:

"Early Thursday morning, Mayweather took to the Ustream site to launch a verbal assault on Pacquiao, the pound-for-pound king from the Philippines, whom Mayweather has refused to fight."

hmm...but my gripe is that Mayweather went back and apologized for sayin it...and expect shit to be all good when he bluntly made a stereotypical, racial remark of the misconception that Asian people eat dogs towards an Asian person. that, fellow non-asian people, is a racist comment. regardless if Floyd is racist or not, it was a disrespectful, racial comment. the thing is, if ANY other race dare to make a comment about black people this or that close to: fried chicken, collard greens, grape drink, watermelons, nappy hair - then Al Shaprton would fuckin march all up and down their residency all day and night.

the point is: this is 2010. every race should be held accountable for their words and actions. no race should have it taken lighter than another

don't blame the Jets...

...if you got cut and didn't make roster. as the Philadelphia Eagles lost to the New York Jets in a typical Philadelphia fashioned; which is havin a strong lead then blowin it by not bein able to score, at ALL! if it wasn't for rookie S Kurt Coleman returnin 2 fumbles for a touchdown, we woulda lost 21-3...even David Akers missed a 49 yarders!! HOW?! "supposedly" he's been knockin them through @ 60yards durin practice...eh, whatever

as the Eagles' site and every other Eagles Nation website narrows their 53-man roster down to who's in and out - so shall I!!

ps: the Eagles already cut 10 players already: CB Geoff Pope, DE Pannell Egboh, DT Boo Robinson, OT Jeraill Mcculler, S Anthony Scirrotto, and RB J.J. Arrington and Martell Mallett

they also picked up veteran G Reggie Wells from, again, the Arizona Cardinals for a 2011 draft pick
