Eagles Change Their Public Relations Methods
BREAKING NEWS, Eagles, General News, News Monday, May 21st, 2012
The Eagles have made a number of clear changes in their public relations methods. They realize that being unpopular with local football fans (and the local media) isn’t a good idea, so they’ve made some major changes.
One of the biggest changes is that head coach Andy Reid, who had previously been reluctant about sharing information bout the team with the local media, has become very open and communicative with any members of the media who have questions.
I think this was a good move by the Eagles. Why start wars when you don’t need to? The Eagles want to have as many friends in the media as possible.
In my opinion, many of the questions that Reid are asked are harmless. Who cares if everybody knows more about the goings on of the football team? If the Eagles win a Super Bowl, everything will be fine. If they don’t, then they’ll continue to face a great deal of criticism. Reid wants to avoid being confrontational.
Reid has also taken a bigger role in the negotiations with the team’s players. He played a major role in the signing of running back LeSean McCoy. McCoy’s agent Drew Rosenhaus singled out Reid as one of the main reasons the deal was done.
“I think so,” Rosenhaus said after being asked about Reid’s role in the negotiations. “Certainly I can’t speak for him, but in the multitude of deals we’ve negotiated with the Eagles, which are in the dozens since he’s been the head coach, this is the most involved I’ve seen him.”

Navy, you have to consider the source. I figured out what kind of an ignorant person he is, last year, when I offered to come say hello to him, because he was being an internet gangster, with a hollow threat. He also showed what a racist, authority hater he is, by making disparaging, ignorant, comments toward me being of mixed races, & my prior occupation. He definitely is a hater. I at least base my fights with facts, & research. But you can’t change ignorance, nor stupidity like imbecilic, buffoons in Schill & Jon Hart. I might brutally honest, & too skeptical at times, I love my teams & want legit winners. I can’t live with myself, if I was a content, stepford, delusional, pom-pom, waver. But I digress. That steel cage, battle royal, sounds good, HUH!? LMFBO!!!
That would be too fun – go all superfly off the top of the cage!
Schill and JH are alright in my book – course I am going to say that – Schill and I agree on most stuff Eagles related – just can;t talk politics with guy…
so Dcar – funny story – basketball related – ref’d a tourney this WE – kids – girls 8th graders club – coach of red team gets a technical exactly 2 secsonds into the game..
red and black opening jump – tipped back – red and black both grab ball – jump ball – no alternate possession set – re-jump – the two players holding hte ball jump – red coach – who must have been 400 pounds (and about 5’10 maybe) goes ape – screaming that the same two players re-jump.. thought the dude was going to have a coronary in front of the kids…
so finally the red coach tells the lead official – you must not have ever ref’d in my gym becuase we use the real rules i my gym… bam technical – my partner pulls out the rule book and shows him the rule as I am adminestring the free throws –
walks over to me and goes – I think he lost about two pounds of sweat arguing that call..
I laughed all day from that – arguing over who jumps – in an alternate possession game where there are like 10 APs a game… kind of like dealing with peopl eon here….. why do you argue such lame points….
LMFBO! Some of these coaches, parents, refs, umps are what is wrong with youth sports, today. Too serious treating these kids like pro’s, or the next big thing. School yourselves, stop living through your kids, & let them HAVE FUN! I don’t know how you deal with officiating. I don’t have the tolerance, nor the patience, to deal with that idiocy. Too funny though. I can picture sweat pouring off of fat bastard, from Austin Powers. EWW! LOL!
it is what makes this site almost theraputic for me – see – I can;t say to fat bastard – how much money are you charging the parents of these kids to teach them Basketball when you are too fat and god damn lazy to even learn the rules – then – on top of that, you embarrass the hell out of yourself making yourself look like a complete ass – over nothing! – I can;t say that – I can;t tell the fan at a pop warner football game that yells ‘he was outside the tackle box’ that is an NFL rule – not the rules for Pop Warner or at a high school JV game that yells – that wasn;t a catchable pass – hey idiot – that’s an NCAA rule – just have to smile and ignore it…………..
but on here – I can be as big a dick as I want….. therapy….. my mom just sent me a foam eagles brick – suitabel for throwing at the TV…
Navy- can she get me a foam Phils brick because I almost broke my tv this weekend when Victorino swung at the first pitch with the bases loaded after a 4 pitch walk. Pop-out.
Songs – the patriots let Asante go for even LESS – they got 0 – nothing in return for letting him walk in free agency. So, that answers your question.
You dope….
DCar — Touché, Guilty as charged– I tip toed in anonymity for a few months on this IP
Game Over
Navy- hug Dcar I was just beginning to have fun with your nerves
DCar I do apologize for my past transgressions and tip my hat to your mind I really do mean it. It was enjoyable while it lasted. I’ll sneak back when the lights are low in the cover of darkness.
schill? what did the Pats get in a compensatory player for losing Asante? you want to bet it’s more than the Eagles received?
songs as you are a tap dancing bitch – taking your bet woul dbe stupid – the PAtriots got a 3rd round draft pcik for asante – they drafted (since you can;t trade compensatory draft picks) a guy named Tyrone McKenzie an OLB fom SOuth Florida -
the rest of the story – he blew out his knee in a mini camp – and went on injured reserve – and spent his second season on the practice squad – then spent a season on the BUcs practice squad and then the Vikes practice squad – he has a grand total of 3 Nfl tackles -
so depends on what you mean by ‘more’ higher draft pick – yeah – but the guy they drafted never played the first year – and had 3 tackles the second….
so what does Bryce Brown have to do to ‘be more’ then tyrone mckenzie
make it through a rookie mini camp without blowing out his knee – Check
but you would squeal and bitch… so no sense betting….
So, Navy….they got a 3rd round pick correct?
Do you know another team who traded a perennial pro bowler for a 7th round pick?
Now, DRC…give his corny ass away……. he worth as much as the pathetic piece of crap we traded to get him….but a 7th rounder for Asante?
To a team that may battle us for playoff contention?
That was very smart…..I can see Asante calling out every defensive play while Brown nose Juan CaStinKo sulk in misery.
but the real question woul dbe – had asante played another season like he did this year – next year – and left in FA – what would the NFL have assigned the Birds as far as a compensatory pick? Anyone else on here think they would have gotten higher then a sixth?
remember – the formaule is based upon salary, play time and post season honors THE NEXT SEASON – so you would have to predict that in two years Asante would be getting a higher salary, the same or greater play time, and similar post season honors…… and looking at how they were doled out this year – maybe, just maybe a 6th… so for 1 round in the draft they saved all that money and used it to extend McCoy – a win win.. especially from the guy CONSTANTLY bitching about how soft the D had become
asshat – I am not going down this whiney ass rabbit hole with you – Asante was done in Philly – it was over – yet another topic for you to bitch about surprise surprise…. increase your fiber intake or something – you must be perpetually constipated…
What team have won a Superbowl using the wide-9?
Why can’t we just line up like the Giants Mano O Mano and win without the gimmick offense and defense?
Songs – “schill? what did the Pats get in a compensatory player for losing Asante? you want to bet it’s more than the Eagles received?” — got to hand it to you there, weird thinking, but they DID get more than the Eagles. The got the 97th (3rd round) overall pick in the 2009 NFL draft. With that selection, the Patriots took Tyrone McKenzie – LB out of South Florida.
NOW – what did McKenzie turn out to be? —- from wikipedia —– “McKenzie was drafted by the New England Patriots in the third round of the 2009 NFL Draft. On May 2, 2009, during rookie minicamp, McKenzie tore the ACL in his right knee after getting tangled up with a running back.[2] He was signed to a four-year contract on August 25 and subsequently placed on injured reserve.
McKenzie was waived on September 5, 2010. He was re-signed to the team’s practice squad the next day after clearing waivers. He was released from the practice squad on November 6, 2010.
[edit]Tampa Bay Buccaneers
McKenzie was signed by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers to their practice squad on November 8, 2010. He was promoted to the Buccaneers’ active roster on December 14, 2010. He was cut on September 2, 2011.
[edit]Minnesota Vikings
McKenzie was signed to the Vikings practice squad on September 7, 2011.”
SO – BY YOUR STANDARDS, THE PATS SONGS, GOT ASS. A BUM. YEP THE PATS DRAFTED A FRIGGIN BUM.
We’ll see what comes of Bryce Brown.
So Schill..they got a 3rd rounder…right?
point taken…now look at your original comment based on the Pats who you said got nothing…touting the Eagles for at least getting a 7th rounder..
That was the bases of your comment you know?
that was the “basis”..thought I would correct the spelling knowing you would use that to change the subject.
Songs – as for lining up with the Giants Mano a Mano – um, we do, we play them twice a year. Now they win the superbowl comparison, obviously. BUT cooincidentally, if you google “eagles giants andy reid era”, you get a GCOBB result first – AND – from this very site – in an article mind you –
“When you dig deeper and ask someone who has followed both teams closely it’s apparent the Eagles clearly have been better than the Giants during the Andy Reid era. They’ve had more wins, more playoff appearances, and have dominated head to head play.”
So there’s your “Mano a Mano” right there Songs.
Caution – this is a facts that might hurt the spot where your brain would theoretically go….
Schill…2 Superbowls…the Giants have been better than the Eagles during Reids Tenure.
Yeah, but not mano a mano – as you requested.
Really though? Is that something that I didn’t state or that wasn’t already known?
eagles0, your too funny. Don’t go anywhere, you are most welcome here. LOL! BTW, I will NOT hug Navy. 2 big men, aged 40+, 6’2″+, 240lb+ X athletes, hugging each other, is only suitable in Sumo wrestling & that’s not for me. BWAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

I wonder why because every other franchise operates the same way they used to and they don’t owe squat to the press or the fans and can say and do what they want. This defense was incorrect but used to beat down fans who complained about their public relations. Go figure?
