Weekly Podcast for 3/30/09


On this week's episode, we talk some college hoops and some Eagles...mostly Eagles though. We start off by congratulating Villanova on making it to the Final Four, and discuss whether or not this city will go nuts if they manage to win the whole thing. We then shift our focus to the Eagles, as Paul and Greg get in a heated debate over whether or not the Eagles have done enough to improve their chances of winning the Superbowl. Are we jumping the gun with the Eagles, or should we at least let them draft before making our judgment? There was supposed to be some Flyers talk, but since we ran a bit long, we decided to just add another Podcast for the Flyers, which you can hear tomorrow. That's right, you read that correctly...another podcast tomorrow!

Eagles Sign FB


The Eagles have signed fullback Leonard Weaver to a one year contract worth $1.75 million. Weaver has played with the Seattle Seahawks since 2005 when he was signed as an undrafted free agent.

The Philadelphia Eagles finally addressed one of several needs identified following their lose in the NFC Championship game. They were able to sign the 26-year-old full back who was also talking to the Vikings, Seahawks and Buccaneers, among other teams.

After having a limited role in 2005 and spending the 2006 season on IR, Weaver became the starting fullback for the Seahawks in week 6 of the 2007 season.

Weaver is a significant upgrade for the Birds, as he is a capable blocker and is a decent receiver out of the backfield. Hopefully we'll continue to see the Birds begin to plug some of the holes on their squad. We'll keep you posted.

And another...
