Eagles Cut DeSean Jackson
Nope. It's for real. Not a gag.They weren't happy with him for various reasons.
Latest on possible reasons: http://www.nj.com/eagles/index.ssf/2..._troubles.html
Shorter version: knew and was business affiliated with a gang member who was imprisoned and tired for murder. Was acquitted. DeSean not involved in crime but was questioned about whereabouts of one of the suspects.
Question: If I was a possible witness for an alibi (or the reverse), should I expect the police to call my place of employment? What was that about?
Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.
They (probably?) wouldn't do that do you...but it's not like they can treat him the way they do other people.Originally Posted by pbmax

If I was a professional athlete, I think I would eventually quit out of paranoia. That report, plus team security having ins with the FBI and local law enforcement would drive me batty.
Steinbrenner tried to adopt an entire FBI field office in Tampa and hired them regularly to do research and security work for him. Howard Spira wasn't the only guy George cozied up with to dig up dirt on people.

Will be interesting to see where he ends up and how much he gets paid.
All hail the Ruler of the Meadow!
Have him end up in New England. That should create an entertaining media circus.
BTW what is the going suspension rate for flashing gang symbols?
Fire Murphy, Gute, MLF, Barry, Senavich, etc!
It will be. There are supposedly a few teams kicking the tires right now, but they have to be all wondering what the Eagles know that they don't.
PFT is saying a 1yr deal for $6-7M is possible. He was scheduled to make 10.5, did his value drop that much as a result of getting cut by the Eagles? Theoretically, teams should be willing to pay a bit more if they don't have to make a long term commitment.

I really hope he doesnt go to SF

teams really are cracking down on the whole gang affiliation thing
there were teams at the combine or before the combine that wanted pictures of players tatoos so that they could have the FBI look at them and tell them if there were any gang related tatoos
See, I think that is stupid unless you are going to do a metric ton of followup. Might be a lot of mistakes made on that basis.

This is because of an active NFL player executing people in New England. I don't blame the NFL on this. The Eagles probably jumped the gun, though.
Either way you have to do some kind of damage control. If Jackson or one of his friends does something stupid while still a member of the Eagles, and then it becomes known that the Eagles were away of his less savory connections...hoo boy...it would be a very bad day in Philly.
Due diligence yes. But the murder case, unless there are details we don't know, seems more than arms length from him.
A bigger, more immediate question, is why did he have $200K in his house to get stolen a couple of months ago.
Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.
The actual total of the cash was said to be $20k... The total of all the goods taken from his safe, including the gems, his handgun, et al was 200k
Well, that's slightly more reasonable.

maybe its just because i'm poor
but why does someone need to have $20,000 in pocket money just lying around?
i wouldn't doubt the robbery threw up a giant red flag. $20k in cash, and a hand gun stolen?
to me that looks suspect
Some of this may be black culture stuff. A lot of my black friends do transactions in cash. I've asked a few guys and it comes down to not 'trusting the man.' (with good reason, eh). Many don't keep money in banks, stuff is stashed at home, people keep shades drawn all day long so people can't see what they have. Seems like Desean's stash is the same behavior writ large.

Was concern over DeSean legit or did Eagles go too far in cutting WR?
