Blog Bleeding Green Nation, as quoted by Philly.com, on McNabb:
1.) Donovan Jamal McNabb wants nothing more than a Super Bowl victory for his teammates and the city of Philadelphia.I think if the Eagles win the Super Bowl, every single person who called for Andy Reid's firing on WIP- from Angelo Cataldi on down- should be banned from the parade.2) Donovan Jamal McNabb wants to retire as a Philadelphia Eagle.
Got it? Is the fan base OK? Is the media OK?
. . . This whole "will he stay/does he want to leave/is he happy/has he lost the locker room/does he like philly" [routine] is complete media-driven, fan-incensed nonsense. . . .
The media say: "OK, Philly wants him gone." . . . It's not fair, it's not entirely true. But it is true that McNabb has to deal with ridiculous questions about his future in Philly. Continually.
You can say that all the QBs deal with idiot fans that "call for their heads." But I don't remember the last news conference that Peyton Manning had to discuss his "future in Indianapolis." I don't remember the last news conference that Eli Manning had to discuss his "future in New York." I don't remember the last news conference that Jake Delhomme had to discuss his "future in Carolina."
