Another Name Change For Thomas
2008-04-03 20:47:39
Eagles LT William Thomas(first time I have ever called him William), has decided to change his name back to Tra Thomas. Apparently nobody called him William(after ten years of Tra who would?), and he has given up on William.
I am glad that Thomas finally came back around to Tra, because I have basically refused to [...] ...

2008-04-03 11:12:11
Gary Cobb from GCobb.com made a nice little video on the current state of the Eagles defense, and what the Birds need to look for in the draft.

Chris Johnson is FAST!!!
2008-03-28 01:05:12
Speed kills, and RB Chris Johnson from Eastern Carolina is lightning fast. Johnson ran a 4.24 40, and watching his highlights he runs a lot like Brian Westbrook. Johnson is a big time kick returner as well, and I hope the Birds take a chance on him in the 2nd round of the draft. Correll [...] ...

The 26 year old Pennsylvania native is excited to be a part of the Eagles, and hopes he can contribute [...] ...

The Iggles Call On Rocky For Help
2008-03-24 21:43:50
The Eagles signed linebacker Rocky Boiman(not Balboa) today. Boiman has been primarily a backup in his career with the Titans, and most recently the Colts. Boiman should add depth, veteran leadership, and should be a key special teams contributor.
This is not the biggest move, but a team needs to have good role players too. Unless [...] ...
