RAM JAM! The Mike Vick Project, Tom Brookshier, and an Ode to Donovan McNabb

- Michael Vick claims he is still a top 10 QB in NFL. And don't forget, tonight is the season premiere of The Michael Vick Project on the BET.

- Tom Brookshier, All-Pro Cornerback on the Eagles 1960 World Champion team, passed away at age 78. Hall of fame sportswriter Ray Didinger remembers the Eagles legend in this great article from CSN Philly.

- Eagles President Joe Banner had some interesting comments on the McNabb situation: "Here's the reality on that," Banner said. "It sounds evasive, but it isn't. . . . We really have not had the meeting to start figuring this stuff out. Obviously we have to do that. . . . Obviously we have to make a decision on what we're going to do. But at this moment, I can tell you that we haven't even laid out a plan or sat down and even exchanged our different ideas or thoughts on that."

- Speaking of Don, here's an interesting "Ode to Donovan". I like the bluesy music and the stilted way the guy recites his satiric sports poetry:


- Ruben Amaro Jr defends the Cliff Lee trade and makes this bold statement: "We cannot be the New York Yankees," Amaro said. "We have to have people that we can bring to the big leagues from our system. The guys who are our core players are guys from our system." Okay, Ruben, we can't BE the Yankees, but we have to BEAT the Yankees.

- Placido Polanco is prepping himself for the shift from 2nd to 3rd base. Meanwhile, Pedro Feliz is catching up with some old friends in Houston.
