Very true, if the Patriots end up in the SB, I hope the Eagles aren't standing on the other side of the field, if that's the case, that quote could come back and bite him in the butt. Also, don't think it'll be forgotten, the Media will remember and it'll be all over the place.

No he is not related to Steve Guttenburg

Thanks Webster, I'm eagerly awaiting the release of your 12th Edition. Please let me know when this is available.

Wait until you win a Super Bowl before saying that crap.
I like Welkers confidence in his statement and I also like the fact that he feels strongly enough about his position on the team to talk about the Asante situation.

I think what Welker said what Factually correct and for that he's in the clear. There is no mistaking that fact that Asante chose money, and I'm not saying there is anything wrong with that - He needs to do what's right for his family and himself. I wish him luck, unless he lines up against the Patriots and in that case I hope he and his new team looses big.

Asante had the flippin championship in his hands and let it go...

Can't blame a guy for moving to get a better job. EVERYONE else in this country does the same thing.

Not quite....some kicker that will end up in our Hall of Fame also has a ring with another team.

Dumb comment by Welker. Asante has played on a championship team, Welker hasn't. Asante knows more about it than Welker. Welker should have kept his mouth shut on it.

I agree 100%. We haven't won any more championships than Philly recently.
