McNabb excited about TE opportunities

Honestly, I don't see where his race has anything to do with his popularity. He's a good player with a fun personality. That's it.

There is something to it but the effect is probably minimal. Lots of kids like to look for people that look like themselves when they start watching sports, which might have been the case with me and Cal Ripken when I was a kid. However that was more than likely just a product of of him being a great baseball player and me being an Orioles fan. I mean I also liked Art Monk a lot when I was growing up. Michael Vick's favorite QB as a kid wasn't Randall Cunningham, but Steve Young.

And I have to say that right now my favorite player on the Skins is easily Orakpo followed by McNabb and Daniels. Race might get you noticed for an extra two seconds if you're in the minority, such is the case of black guys who play hockey but in the end the thing fans care the most about is how you play followed closely by how you conduct yourself.

I will digress after this, i promise.

Of all the skins games I have gone to, of all the skins jerseys i have seen people wearing . . .i have never seen a black chick wearing a cooley jersey while there must be 30,000 cooley jerseys piling into the stadium every home game. so thats a billion white chicks wearing cooley jerseys vs 0 black chicks wearing cooley jerseys that i have seen.

Im buying my girl a cooley jersey just to make it 1.

Doesn't sound like the white people have the race issue... :D

Just kidding.

:silly:This why I hope and pray ever year we get 1 of the Gramatica's:silly:

Cooley had a broken ankle, genius.

Well aware of that my friend. Any Redskins fan is aware of that. We must be friends, because you are already aware of my IQ level.

Davis has made ME and ONLY ME forgot about Mr Cooley apparently.

Aye.




Players tend to disappear when they have a season ending injury you know. And when he did play, he tended to disappear because he had to help out the ghost of an offensive line we had.

Just give it up dude.

Please see above DUDE !

Chris Cooley is a good football player, I look forward to seeing us scheme him up better. However, I do think he gets boosted because he's such a cool guy that people are in love with him. I'm not saying that Chris Cooley isn't a stellar TE. I'd say he's easily top half, most likely top 10 TEs in the league, but as skins fans we overrate him slightly because of his personality.

The voice of reason !!!

Cooley is good.
Stellar, he is NOT!

Well aware of that my friend. Any Redskins fan is aware of that. We must be friends, because you are already aware of my IQ level.

Oh yeah, you are a musical genius.

I like Cooley a lot as a player. Off the field he's a great personality but Davis just seems like he has a nose for the end zone. Cooley has always been able to rack up receptions and yards but the endzone elludes him. He is consistent when he plays, a possession guy that QBs love to have as a safety blanket, I almost think JC would abandon his second and third reads and if the primary wasn't there he just started looking for Cooley sometimes. That's what a good possession TE gives you. Davis is a different player, he's faster, more dynamic, not an effective blocker but the zone scheme should help him in that regard. It's really a luxury to have these two guys, both talented but in very different ways.

I think people are underrating Cooley just a bit. He's had down production the last two seasons, but he was getting about 6 TDs a season prior to that. That said, Davis is indeed the more athletic of the two.

I COULDN"T AGREE WITH YOU MORE BOUT CC. Not really living up to it, falling into the overrated category to me. Also GET RID OF LeRON AS WELL.
What? Not living up to 3rd rd pick?
