Ok, so I really was excited about doing this interview. Why? because I would be interviewing Asante Samuel, a SuperBowl winner who decided to go from bad to championship caliber! LOL  Asante Samuel joined the Eagles after being apart of the New England Patriots "machine" for the past few years. In 2008, Asante brought a "swagger" that the Eagles had not seen since the days of Eric Allen! The Eagles had a solid group of corners, but when they added Samuel that became one thousand times greater! I had an opportunity to sit down with him and chat and here are a few questions I asked "The BallHawk"

1. Was it a big transition going from New England to Philadelphia?

2. What are you expectations for the 2009 season considering you came close to going to another SuperBowl?

3. How do you think the team will cope with the loss of Brian Dawkins? Will you become a more vocal leader?

4. What is it like getting ready for the season? Is every season different?

5. What are you going to tell your "new" teammate, Ellis Hobbs about Philly and the NFC East?

Fun Questions-----

6. Who has the better cheesesteak, Pat's or Gino's?

7. I know you are avid gamer, so will you be playing as yourself on Madden 10 or a different team?

8. I see you are on Twitter, what do you like about it?

9. Favorite Goodie Mob song???

10. Gillette Stadium or Lincoln Financial? Who has the louder fans??
