More Motivation For McNabb

[12thMan]

I ran into a couple of hard core Eagles fans who were here for the weekend. Nice guys,( they bought me a shot of Mccallan) but they were very, very reluctant to jump on the Kolb band wagon and didn't really bash McNabb at all other than saying it was time to "part ways."

Calm down folks, what else should Jackson say? Of course he says the team won't miss mcnabb.. It's may lol let's see if he says this after week 3! The kid is a great talent but like most young athletes he's cocky and confident at the same time. Donovan will prove all the naysayers wrong this yr.

He could say, "Someone like McNabb is hard to replace. But we have complete confidence in Kolb." He didn't have to take a shot at McNabb.

Interesting.... I can understand where McNabb is coming from when he says"when you're with them they have good things to say, when you're gone it's all negative.

I was in Philly the week after Donovan was traded, talked with several fans I know up there. Based on our conversations, many thought it was time for him to go, they just didn't like the idea of him coming to the Skins.

If Donovan plays well here, at least he won't have to concern himself with the likes of writers like Angelo Cataldis, who never wrote anything positive about him, or hecklers like Tyson Suskrand who spent his weeks before games thinking of things he could say to hassle him on Sunday's.

Jackson's comments were somewhat different coming from a former teammate. They're something you would normally hear from fans.
