The guy who wrote this article, last year wrote under the headline: Asomugha makes Eagles instant title favorites
The Eagles have the potential to line up the greatest trio of cornerbacks in NFL history after acquiring Nnamdi Asomugha(notes) on Friday to go with Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie(notes), who arrived Thursday in the Kevin Kolb(notes) deal, and Asante Samuel(notes), who is under contract. Heck, DRC and Samuel were good enough. Even if Samuel gets traded, the Eagles have the best cover duo in the league.
Sure, New England made interesting moves Thursday to get Albert Haynesworth(notes) and Chad Ochocinco(notes). But in both those cases, the Patriots gambled on rehabbing damaged goods. The Eagles have sure things on their hands.
I can't run no more
With that lawless crowd
While the killers in high places
Say their prayers out loud
But they've summoned, they've summoned up
A thundercloud
They're going to hear from me - Leonard Cohen

Did San Diego end up on the Losers List for signing Atari Bigby?
That was my point; most years GB does not show up on the winners or losers; they just draft wellTERD Buckley over Troy Vincent, Robert Ferguson over Chris Chambers, Kevn King instead of TJ Watt, and now, RICH GANNON, over JIMMY JIMMY JIMMY LEONARD. Thank you FLOWER

Don't be surprised if the Eagles are one of the top teams in the NFL this year; with so many changes I really think they were hurt from the lockout as much as any team in the NFLTERD Buckley over Troy Vincent, Robert Ferguson over Chris Chambers, Kevn King instead of TJ Watt, and now, RICH GANNON, over JIMMY JIMMY JIMMY LEONARD. Thank you FLOWER

One thing I will give credit to the writer for, he knows his audience. A lot of fans still like it when a team over pays for some FA. We are an exception in the off season not the rule, and most people dont like to stray from the beaten path. Occasionally the big name FA pays off, and then the writers can talk about that, but it is hard to write a story about nothing and get page views.All tyrannies rule through fraud and force, but once the fraud is exposed they must rely exclusively on force.
