Sheldon is a good player and this team needs him. He also understands the team cuts everyone after the age of 30.

Don't give up on him.

MLB playoffs start in less than a week.

Who will close games for the defending World Champions?

What up everyone? I wrote an article about the changes here on B/R over the last couple of months, and about some of the things that we used to have, that we don't anymore. If you could, check it out.

http://bleacherreport.com/articles/261261-dear-bleacher-report-please-bring-back-the-old-format

As I have said in the past, many times, I am not on here for AOTD votes, but I believe that if enough of you give me your AOTD vote, then maybe the higher ups will bring back some of the things that are gone.

Thanks a bunch, I really appreciate it.

Vick's paid his dues, maybe it's time to give him that second chance:

Hey Anthony,

I loved your recent article on Michael Vick! Couldn't agree more. I though the fans were more in the wrong than the media was; MOST of the media actually endorsed the Eagles decision.

Also, would you mind if I posted some of your Eagles articles to my blog? I'll post your name, as well as provide a link to your B/R profile.

The web address is www.EaglesFever.info. I've been busy for a really long time now, and I'm trying to keep the blog regularly updated. It's hard work, and always a lot of help to post others' articles as well (plus, more perspective).

Come visit some time! Thanks.

More bad news for the Eagles' defense...

How do you recover from the loss of Bradley, Dawkins, and Jim Johnson?

I wanted to pay my tributes to Jim Johnson by showing everyone how he did everything he could to not let his battle with cancer keep him away from football, the game he loved. If you have time, I'd really appreciate the read. Thanks.
