My God. I am reading some of these posts and thinking 'NFW these guys are serious'. Lets clarify some things.
1) Tom Donahoe is an egotistical, Napoleonic liar. Flat out liar. This will be his 2nd firing in 5 years. That is unheard of for ANY GM.
2) Tom Modrak had NOTHING, to do with our draft picks. Why the hell do you guys think that all of these years he said 'Hell no' to Tom donahoe in regards to being GM? He didn't want little napoleon over ruling his decisions! He saw the writing on the wall. TD would name him GM, Then over rule/ have final say on personel decisions. Then come a day like today, MODRAK would be fired as TD's scape goat! GET A CLUE PEOPLE!
Look I will say these FACTS again. Modrak built most of todays Eagles team. he took over a 3-13 team. Ingored fans (And he better do so here too) and took McNabb over pot head rickey williams. They went 5-11. then 11-5 and won a playoff game. Then the next year appeared in their first NFC Championship. Jeffery lurie pulled a Ralph wilson and canned him just like Ralph did Polian. Now 4 years later after riding what Modrak built, The Eagles are starting to head down hill. Why do you think Reid handed a guy the GM job this week?
But now that TD is getting fired he jumps at the chance to be GM? Well DUH! The man is smart folks. Philly has damn good lines, TM Built them (But they let Simon go to Indy...dumb move) and he knows he has to build them here. He has a distinct advantage over any GM coming in...he already knows everyone. Every player etc. He knows what little strengths we have and what our weaknesses are. Modrak will be fine. he is NOT a TD 'right hand man' 'Clone' or other stupid comments I have read here.
I told you in my reality post ralph was NOT going to fire MM. I also said it was a wrong decision by Ralph that is motivated by MONEY only. I am interested to see of Brad Roll (This one issue was what was hanging up the meeting yesterday, NOT Marv Levy) will be gone. The fact MM is still here says roll is hitting the bricks. I have to presume Clements and Gray are gone as well. Who knows what else. I just pray MM Must hire an established coordinator and hand ALL playcalling duties to him. I also pray RW told his to make up his mind on JP. From what I understand, it was a MM/TD move to play holcomb, NOT Ralph Wilson.
But in reality I called this WEEKS ago. Modrak, Brandon, MM and a new OC. Ralph isn't going to be here that much longer. The Devil you know, and CAN CONTROL, is much better than the one you don't know. If we cleaned house, you would have seen ralph sell the team. He knows he can't wait 5 more years for a shot. 2-3 yeah, but a total rebuild is another 5 year deal due to taking 2 years to get the current guys cap numbers off of the board.
