According to Jeff McLane of Philly.com, Andy Reid and the Eagles will retain Juan Castillo as the Birds defensive coordinator. They will add Todd Bowles as the cornerbacks coach.
It’s no surprise to me, I felt and had heard this was the way Andy was leaning. I don’t think he wanted to change anything because he [...]
The 2011 season was filled with stories of Eagles players and fans battling with one another on Twitter. Lost in the bad tweets, was the twitter story in which players and fans got along, and ultimately shared drinks together. The one thing that brought players and fans involved with Twitter together was the account @HowardMuddFacts.
The account [...]
CSNPhilly.com reports that the Philadelphia 76ers asked the New York Knicks about power forward Amare Stoudemire. It’s not that a deal is imminent but we’re told that the Sixers were doing their homework with a guy who could become available at some point.
The Knicks are a losing team right now and there’s no telling who [...]
The 2011-12 NHL season is long from over, but as the schedule quieted down in the past few days with the All Star Break, I thought I would touch on an idea that has been percolating in my head for a few months.

I had a very solid weekend. I went to both Sixers games. It was fun as hell watching them be on cruise control for wins over the Bobcats 89-72 and the Pistons 95-74. The Sixers are now 14-6 and have 4 game lead over Boston. The one guy I noticed the most this weekend was Andre Iguodala. The way [...]
The status of Eagles’ defensive coordinator Juan Castillo remains one of the most puzzling question marks floating over the team at the moment. After struggling through his first year on the job, and calling a defense that was responsible for five blown fourth-quarter leads, it didn’t seem as though he would be a lock to [...]
Brian Dawkins was named to his ninth Pro Bowl on Thursday as an injury replacement for the Steelers’ Troy Polamalu, his second Pro Bowl selection since joining the Denver Broncos. He is now tied with John Lynch for the second-most career Pro Bowl berths by a safety. This could, however, be Dawkins’ last game as [...]
If you ask any coach or GM what is the most important ingredient in winning, most will reply team chemistry. While I agree football is a team game, sometimes it’s as much about the Jim and the Joe’s as the x and the o’s.
49ers head coach Jim Harbaugh did a masterful job in resurrecting former [...]
I believe it was Football Eve 2009 (the pep rally we had the night before our first home game) in which Joe Paterno said he would still be coaching 40 years from now. Knowing that would put him over 120 years of age, I knew that probably would not happen. The Penn Stater in me, [...]
The Eagles have named Anthony Patch as Director of College Scouting and Rick Mueller as Player Personnel Executive.
Patch has been with the Eagles organization for 10 years and worked his way up. Mueller earned his stripes in New Orleans.
Here are some of the players that Mueller drafted during his time with the Saints: Jamaal Brown, [...]
