Irony Alert: Eagles Shopping Shawn Andrews
Posted by: david
Bengals fans can have a good laugh today, courtesy of PFT, which passes along word that the Philadelphia Eagles have contacted at least one team in an attempt to trade guard Shawn Andrews.
Shawn, of course, is the brother of Stacy Andrews, who signed a big-bucks deal with the Eagles in Mrch after declining for two years to sign an extension with the Bengals. Why? Allegedly, because he wanted to go to Philadelphia to play alongside his brother.
Who now may be playing elsewhere.
Heh.
That’s actually pretty funny. Stacey played the Bengals. Not when he wanted out, but after he got hurt when he claimed he was interested in resigning with us. Just used us for contract leverage with the Eagles. Well look who’s getting played now, bitch! I hope your surgically repaired knee falls off and you end up a long snapper in the Arena2 League.
Nothing really against Stacey, I’m just having a bad day.

April 23rd, 2009 at 1:33 pmThis rumor is false! Nice try to Bengals fans. But, he ain’t going anywhere!

Yeah, teams always rush out to confirm that they are trying to trade someone. No one ever issues a denial and then turns around and cuts a deal…
April 23rd, 2009 at 1:53 pmNo, it was rumored that Shawn Andrews wanted a new contract, but his agent just said he just wants to go out and play. I am not talking about the Eagles said, it is all in the article. So there!
April 23rd, 2009 at 3:32 pmOh, no, David….may that never happen. Let’s just sit back and watch. I am getting a little giddy about it just the same.
April 23rd, 2009 at 5:29 pmI didn’t bother to click on it, but that link to a Philly fan blog just exudes credibility. Rumor quashed, you win Anthony.
