Beasley Reece: Most Positive Man In Philadelphia
CBS Sports Anchor Beasley Reece called into Colin Cowherd show on ESPN Radio this morning. Colin brought Beasley on during his “Spanning the Globe” segment to comment on the Stallworth deal and boy, did it seem like someone spiked his coffee with happy pills. On the Stallworth trade, he commented:
“I told the fans to be patient. The entire story had not been written. The Eagles got their man! Stallworth has world class speed and immediately makes the Eagles a Super Bowl contender.”
Whoooaaaa….Hey Beez, we traded for DONTE Stallworth not JOHN Stallworth. Calm it down a bit buddy. It’s going to take this guy a couple of weeks to learn the offense and Joe Horn has already commented on his lack of commitment, so let’s not get too excited just yet. I like the deal, but I have to see the guy play first before I go over board about how much this increases the Birds chances of contending for the Super Bowl again.
On Simoneau being traded to the Saints:
“The Eagles will miss his presence as a special teams leader and a backup line backer. Plus, he was such a nice guy. He will definitely help the Saints. He has a ton of speed and makes a lot of plays.”
Sorry Beez, but with that last part of that comment you lost me. I will never take another thing you say seriously for the rest of your career.

How come you haven't gone after Sikahema after the Rutgers bashing? I saw another guy's blog that mentioned the Sikahema rant here:

But I can't find the transcript of Sikahema's exact words. He basically said that it is wrong of Rutgers to cut other sports when they lose 8 million a year on football for a stinky program. He said they act like their program is Penn State by making the coach the highest paid state employee, buying the coach land next to a golf course, building a new complex, etc.
