The records in the house I really remember were, well, Glen Campbell's 'Wichita Lineman' and 'Galveston.' Even as a kid, I knew these songs were glorious.

If the Eagles were to get back together, it would have to be for the right reasons. I think it would look awful if it were just for the money.

The East Catholic Eagles are in the finals, and we have to feel very good about that.

Down the hall came the wife. She was glorious, burning. She didn't know yet that her husband was dead. We knew. That's what gave her such power over us. The doctor took her into a room with a desk at the end of the hall, and from under the closed door a slab of brilliance radiated as if, by some stupendous process, diamonds were being incinerated in there. What a pair of lungs! She shrieked as I imagined an eagle would shriek. It felt wonderful to be alive to hear it! I've gone looking for that feeling everywhere.

From the beginning of time in the NFL, you need to distinguish what stars can get away with and what others can get away with, ...

Unfortunately, not one person in the Eagles' front office has given me any idea of what the future holds for me as a player for the Eagles beyond this season. This has come as a real shock to me.

I feel the Eagles have really done a good job of making those type of decisions. Being a businessman myself, I definitely had my opinion of what I thought their next move would be. I suspected that something like this would happen.

Jon enjoyed the visit with the Jets. They did an incredibly good job with the visit. They got his attention. But his comfort level is in Philadelphia.

I was an Eagles fan growing up, growing up so close to them, watching Jaworski (quarterback Ron) and (receiver) Harold Carmichael and (running back) Wilbert Montgomery, and those guys.

I was on the phone with Marsha, who said the doctor had diagnosed him with ALS. I said, 'Gosh, my fears are realized.' When Bruce got on the phone, he said, 'Well, I just made a quad.' You guys know what that means. That's how he just kind of brushed it off. I said, 'Yeah, but we're going to get back to even par.' Whenever somebody came up to put their arm around him and say they were sorry, Bruce would say, 'Don't be sorry, I can deal with it,' and then put them off with some sort of joke about the Eagles or how bad the Cowboys were.

You keep hearing everybody wants a more mobile quarterback, ... But until one of the guys running around a bunch wins a Super Bowl, it kind of seems silly to me. Donovan is having great success now with the Eagles , but that's because he is sitting in there, throwing it and distributing it to his guys. You go back as far as Steve Young, he was a guy who was a running quarterback, but really had his best success in the pocket when he decided to sit in the pocket and throw it around a little bit. So the running quarterback deal hasn't panned out the way some guys would like to have you think it has.
