The best quarterback for most of the game was Eli Manning. In the end, it was Michael Vick, and the Philadelphia Eagles who stunned the Giants to take tenuous control of the N.F.C. East with two games remaining.. Vick led a furious rally to erase a 21-point fourth-quarter deficit, pulling the Eagles into a tie with 76 seconds left in the game. Then, with overtime seemingly inevitable, DeSean Jackson returned a punt 65 yards for a touchdown on the last play of the game

.Ask him about Gilbrides 4th Qtr gutless play calling. Too bad Buddy Ryan wasn't around to punch him in the jaw again.

I think Ben Francisco gets most of the playing time in RF.Charlie Manuel is a different type of coach. He's willing to put guys out there, and let them get experience the hard way.
That being said, I could see a platoon style right field.

I was looking around and it seems that he is prohibited from owning canines until 2012.
Apparently, he is allowed to own other types of pets.

...but what about the six defenders who were around Jackson but never touched him.I think they can be forgiven for being unable to catch the wind. He's a hot dog and a goofball and rocket fast.

Vick's been on fire these past four weeks or so, and I was quite surprised to watch the score of that game pop up in the corner of the screen during my watching of most of the Lions' latest victory.
Anyway, my view since Vick became their starter is, they're going to the Super Bowl.
Rex Grossman, longtime scapegoat for Chicago Bears problems, nearly led the Redskins to victory against Dallas. Donovan McNabb is reportedly finished with that team; he'll wind up in Arizona, or Miami, or Oakland, or possibly Minnesota, or maybe with the Jets, or even Detroit (Stafford will never amount to much, too fragile; Shaun Hill's competent but neither young nor spectacularly talented; knowing the Lions, they'll let Stanton go when his contract expires).
The Jets have Chicago (fading) and Buffalo (playing better ball as the season has aged), while the Patriots are struggling right now with Green Bay, and their losses have been to the Jets and the Browns, and have a slightly easier schedule with just Buffalo and Miami left.

That he is. But I know he thinks a lot of Ben’s bat. He could also work him in out in left field to spell Raul.
I still think they bring in another right handed OF. Maybe in a Blanton deal.
