Hard to be successful with what 6 coordinators in 8 years? I don't think he's as good as some dream him of being but also don't think he's as bad as others try to make him out to be. He struggled early on last year but was probably a top 15 QB in the second half of the season. Can't fault the Iggles here fo getting what they got though

:lol:

Reports saying Iggles plan to start Wentz if healthy seemingly goes against what they've said all along about bringing him along slowly. Much like Paxton Lynch, I think both could start and be successful this year but not until the second half of the season

Sam Bradford has brought more trade value to the teams that have traded him than to any team on the field ever. AINEC.

What the hell do people keep seeing in him?

people are acting like Bridgewater wasnt a middle of the pack QB at best anyways. It's a lateral move because Minny still has the HB/D to compete. Who else are they gonna use? Vick? Shaun Hill? Bradford is the best of anyone available and its not close

i would have made the trade if i thought i had a contending team.

if you think your team is good enough to win now other than 1 glaring weakness and you can satisfy that weakness, you overpay to get it. you don't sabotage the 95% of the team that is in good standing to win now.

there is also a chance Teddy is done, if it's as bad as people have been making it out to be. Bradford might not be great, but he's better than the alternatives. Eagles took advantage of a team in need and Vikings overpaid to fill a need. good business deal for both, imo.

Aikmen doesnt like the Bayless signing to Fox

"Clearly (FOX Sports president of national networks) Jamie Horowitz and I have a difference of opinion when it comes to building a successful organization. I believe success is achieved by acquiring and developing talented, respected, and credible individuals, none of which applies to Skip Bayless."

I think a looooong time ago, Bayless used to cover the Cowboys, and in a book or an article or something, he stated that Aikman was gay or something along those lines.

Aikman has publically not been a fan since.

There's an old story that, at the time, Aikman asked his lawyer how much would it cost him if he beat up Bayless. His agent said $2mil, and Aikman decided against it, but saying he would have done it for $1million :lol:

Never thought of him as gay... I guess I could see it though.

Is he/was he ever married?
