drums and skins Posted April 11, 2010 Share Posted April 11, 2010 WASHINGTON—During an emotionally charged press conference Monday, newly minted Redskins quarterback Donovan McNabb expressed gratitude to the unappreciative, abusive, and intolerant fans of the Philadelphia Eagles for their total lack of support over the years. "I'd like to thank all the Eagles fans who were always there to demand the whole world from me every week, who expected me to do everything with almost nothing, and who blamed me for the team's every failure," said the six-time Pro Bowler, who also apologized for his failure to shore up the Eagles defense and his inability to keep Brian Westbrook healthy while leading the team to five NFC championship games. "I can't thank them enough for the constant insults or tell you what their lack of support meant to me when Rush Limbaugh made racist comments about me. My only regret, besides every ****ing awful moment of the past 11 years, is that I couldn't give these people what they wanted most: drafting Ricky Williams back in 1999. No fans deserved it more." McNabb then wished probable Eagles starting QB Kevin Kolb luck winning the next 25 Super Bowls "because nothing else will be enough," gave all Philly fans the finger "because I can't give them all cancer," sighed with pleasure, and went to turn in his Eagles playbook to the Redskins' defensive coordinators.

authentic Posted April 11, 2010 Share Posted April 11, 2010 Wow he went hard didn't he....But in all seriousness, it will be a sight to see when things start to get shaky in illadeph, if they will be ready to crucify "Korn on on the Kolb" and come crawling on thier knees to Mcnabb.

Jumbo Posted April 11, 2010 Share Posted April 11, 2010 Bee-yoo-tee-full! Welcome to DC, Donovan. We're pretty whacked ourselves at times, but we ain't nowhere near as mental as most philly fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
illone Posted April 11, 2010 Share Posted April 11, 2010 Bee-yoo-tee-full! Welcome to DC, Donovan. We're pretty whacked ourselves at times, but we ain't nowhere near as mental as most philly fans. McNabb is going to be loved in DC if the Skins win and he'll be boo'd if he loses, just like any other QB to ever come through DC. My bet is he is a fan favorite by week 8:ols: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeKnowsBest Posted April 11, 2010 Share Posted April 11, 2010 This is too funny. I've always liked McNabb and never understood why he was so unappreciated in Philly. I'm glad we got his happy go lucky self here in Washington D.C. Keep smiling and cracking jokes, Donovan! PS: I'd like a cheeseburger with that onion if you don't mind, OP.

jflow78 Posted April 11, 2010 Share Posted April 11, 2010 That is awesome. When I was watching the press conference I was thinking all that stuff. Man, I wonder if he's relieved to be out of Philly just because of the fans. Funny thing is, for a city that hasn't really had much success, you'd think they'd appreciate a QB that got wins more. My favorite part was him apologizing for not being able to keep Westbrook healthy, and the last line, "and went to turn in his Eagles playbook to the Redskins' defensive coordinators."

MumboSauce Posted April 11, 2010 Share Posted April 11, 2010 " McNabb then wished probable Eagles starting QB Kevin Kolb luck winning the next 25 Super Bowls "because nothing else will be enough," ^^ I liked that part.

Burgundy Burner Posted April 11, 2010 Share Posted April 11, 2010 Do you get the feeling that Donovan would love to say a lot of that stuff? I certainly do. Living here in Eagles territory is proof positive for me. Welcome Donovan. Love seeing you in the Burgundy and Gold! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
