Donovan McNabb's First Eagle Controversy In The Post-Trade Era

Well you knew that this one would be only a matter of time. Donovan McNabb engaging in a war of words with another Eagle.......yeah, this is not one bit of surprising.

But alas, it is happening and McNabb is resorting to the pity card in his response to comments DeSean Jackson made a month ago when made this extremely hurtful, offensive, and downright degrading personal attack on McNabb. Are you ready to read vitriol the likes of which your eyes have never seen before? Okay. Here is what DJacc said about the Eagles team a month ago.....

"I don't think we lost anything, even with McNabb being gone."

O.M.G., right? I know. I am blown away and incredibly offended that a Philadelphia Eagle wide receiver would express such confidence in his team and the direction they are going in. It is incredibly evil of him and I have now lost so much respect for DJacc because he dared to express confidence in himself, Kevin Kolb, Jeremy Maclin, Brent Celek, Andy Reid, the Eagles Front Office, and the Eagles new (and hopefully improved) defense.

But, one month after the quote, Donovan McNabb felt the need to respond to such classless remarks on the part of Jackson. Get ready to read the words of a leader who always takes the moral high road and commands respect from everyone in the NFL.

"It's so wild when people get to talking when you're not there, but when you're there everybody loves you. So I guess people will go deeper into it than I will. I'm a Redskin, no longer an Eagle. I had 11 great years and I'm moving on with my life, so whoever may say things when I'm gone, more power to them, but it's not making you look like a bigger man."

AN AMERICAN HERO! After those words from that mean and nasty Eagle, it is so good to see someone in this country finally take the moral high road in responding to such mean, nasty, hurtful confidence.

Okay, sarcasm and snark aside, this is not a big deal. ESPN and the rest of the media are trying to turn this into a big feud so people because it is the off-season, Brett Favre is not making a ton of noise, and they want people to watch.

Stop. Just stop. No one said anything particularly evil here and this is not a big deal. DeSean Jackson expressed confidence in his team, McNabb may have took his words the wrong way, and that is that. This is not a big deal. This is not a big blow up. This is not McNabb vs. Owens Part II. This is something the media is trying to make into a much bigger feud than it actually is. So can we cut this crap out, not make this McNabb's showdown with his former team in weeks 4 and 10 into a bigger national nightmare than this needs to be? Thank you.
