Remember, He Gets Paid For This

Jason's angry, I'm just laughing.

Because the Eagles are the only team ever in the league that hasn't hit on 100 percent of its draft picks and you should be TOTALLY PISSED AS A FAN when fifth-round draft picks aren't quite good enough to make it in the NFL.

Anybody know Eckel's middle initial? Because that would be awesome.

Heh. The irony was even lost on me. Im not Eckel, sorry. I just find it funny that Eckel has become the whipping boy of the blogosphere for being negative about the team when he's been negative for about the last 3 years. And if you listen to him on the radio, he's been correct about alot of the things he bitches about. Where did you stand for the parade last year?

But you don't get points just for being negative, you actually have to make sense. Even a stopped clock is right twice a day.

My problem is with the people who clearly don't like the current regime, so they just look for anything laying around that they can pick up and use to bash the team. They're not consistent and they're not fair. They're just looking to score some cheap points.

Dave Brooks over at the Eagle Scout Blog has two great recent examples up on his blog:
