Depends on who you are asking because DC has the greatest hockey player on the planet as well.
Not sure if OV's publicity is up to par just yet. After all, it's Crosby who gets all the marketing deals.

I just don't know about this. McNabb is definitely an upgrade from Campbell, no doubt about that! I am SURPRISED that the Eagles traded him to a division foe. This is all very shocking to me! before we get to the Elway comparisons with the age, let's just remember that Elway had been in Denver for years before Shanahan came to town AND Elway had been to at least three Super Bowls before Shanahan came to town. McNabb is in a new city, new team, and has been to one Super Bowl. Don't know if it's fair to compare McNabb to Elway. Two different situations!

There should be no doubt that Campbell is not part of the plans of Mike Shanahan.
You've seen the last of JC in a Redskin uniform.
Maybe neither are a part of Shanahan's plans? JC to Buffalo for a 2nd or 3rd round pick gives you guys what you wanted.... more picks.
McNabb plus our 1st round pick moves us up to #1 overall. The Rams were interested in McNabb but didn't get anything done. I think we have the availability though.

Boy, you are going to have your world crushed when McNabb plays similarly for four games, then falls on his rifle and gets hurt.
GTripp, who knew that when we were talking about what seemed to be totally hypothetical at 2:00 a.m., that we will get a definitive answer over the next few years.
I think both of us hope that my position was right! ;-)

I'm sure the Rams would have wanted our 1st/2nd rounders this year and a third or fourth next year instead.

And on the injury thing, in the last three years (since JC has been a full-time starter) McNabb missed 4 games, JC missed 3. Since McNabb's injuries, he's been a lot more selective running the ball.

Sounds like business as usual in the NFL. I'm not surprised or outraged by it. Would it have made much of a difference if they told him before the trade went down?
