Did an Eagles chat this afternoon.
One hour.
Thirty-eight questions.
Only two about Donovan McNabb.
Now, a producer selects the questions from a longer list. There might have been a higher percentage of McNabb questions in the whole list -- there probably were; I only gave it a quick scan during the chat -- but it wasn't a lot more. And I'm sitting here trying to figure out if there is a lesson in there somewhere.
Because, on the one hand, as I've said many times, all you have to do is belch McNabb's name in a column to get people to read it. One of the most-read stories the other day on philly.com was a recapitulation of McNabb's post on yardbarker.com. On the other hand, though, there seems to be a lot of interest now in the Eagles' new draft class and the reconfiguring of the offense and the rest.
I'm not sure what to make of it.
