Notes and Whatnot... 

Reading this article about Eddie George wanting to be an Eagle is downright painful. He could have fit in the team's salary-cap plans, would have added depth in the backfield and leadership in the clubhouse, and best of all: we wouldn't have to play against him twice a year! With Duce gone and George in big D, I have a nagging feeling that the position of running back is going to cause big, big problems for the team in '04.

Nice article by Phil Sheridan about Trotter playing his way into the starting middle linebacker position. The Eagles have gotten away with weak play from the position for the last two years, so hopefully Trotter is rested and ready for the job. With games against Marshall Faulk, Clinton Portis, Eddie George, Duce, Jamal Lewis and Stephen Davis, the Eagles are going to see a lot of good running backs. Gotta shut 'em down...

Bob Brookover wrote another "T.O. is happy" stories for Monday's Inquirer. (No link, sorry.) Whenever you hear someone professing about how happy they are over and over, it should start to make you worry.

According to Brookover, the Eagles got 6,200 fans at Lehigh. Not a bad turnout.
