This isn’t said that often, but maybe it should be. Once you’re a member of the Philadelphia Eagles, you’ll always be a member of the Birds. Then again, we probably shouldn’t do that.
If we make that type of proclamation, we’ll have to include guys like Vince Young, Cullen Jenkins, and Jason Babin. Those guys aren’t Eagles. They were mercenaries.
You get the idea though. It’s nice to see that college atmosphere in the NFL sometimes, and it’s fun to see guys who made a name for themselves in the kelly or midnight green still supporting the franchise and the City of Brotherly Love.
