Eagles Fans "Racist or Disloyal"

As I had the opportunity to sit and listen to fans applaud the trade of Donovan Mcnabb, I can't help but wonder if race or just plain disloyalty played a part in people feeling so enthusiastic about #5 departure.  Me personally I know enough about football to know that the decision was purely business from the Eagles point of view.  Kevin Kolb is about 7 years younger and several million dollars cheaper.  My problem is not with the business aspect of it.  I struggle to accept such disloyalty from fans. I remember that draft day vividly.  It was the spring of my junior season at Cheyney University, and we had just finished a long grueling spring football practice.  The commissioner stepped to the podium and announced that the Eagles had just selected QB Donovan Mcnabb from Syracuse University 2nd overall.    I will never forget how the boo's rang out.  I can't recall a crowd of fans being that brutal before or since.  Angelo Cataldi, Mayor Ed Rendell, and hundreds of Eagles fans were in love with Ricky Williams.  Mcnabb handled that moment like he has most other moments during his tenure in philly, like a champion.  It is my opinion that Eagles fans are some of the most disloyal at times.  They are also spoiled and obnoxious.  For what reason I don't know.  What I do know is that I wish I could turn back the hands of time.  If only I could allow some karma to creep in to this situation.  What if Cleveland selected Donovan instead of Tim Couch?  I know the Browns fortunes would be totally different.  How would Eagles fans have felt about a gutless Couch?  What if the Bengals had selected Mcnabb and not Akili Smith?  Would they have ever been in a position to draft Carson Palmer?  Eagles fans would have had a field day with Akili?

My point is the Philadelphia Eagles are one of the better NFL organizations around.  Its not a mistake that #5 was the qb.  The things Mcnabb accomplished are no accident either.  The man is a straight up winner on and off the field.  Be blessed Eagles fans.  Have some class. Show some respect.  These past eleven years could have gone way different.  Who knows maybe the Eagles would have been bad enough to eventually draft Jamarcus Russell.  Yea right now Eagles fans deserve Jamarcus Russell at his worst.    One love Donnie Mac #5.
