Eagles Training Camp has arrived! As fans, we've been waiting in anticipation for the football season to get here as expectations are extremely high for Doug Pederson's and this Eagles team this coming season. This week, Brandon Lee Gowton - better known as BLG - from BleedingGreenNation.com and the BGN Radio podcast jumped on the pod with us for our training camp preview as we discussed the various camp battles we'll be witnessing on offense and defense in the coming weeks.
But first, we discussed what witnessing Roy Halladay's Baseball Hall of Fame induction meant to us this past weekend. We also discussed Drew Smyly's pitching from this past weekend and the struggles that still continue for this Phillies team. (approx. 3:40)
This next story simply needed to be discussed. We talked about the new Rocky movie and possible TV series that may be coming to our screens in the future. (approx. 13:40)
After that, we followed up on a segment from last year where we asked if Darren Sproles should be a candidate for the Pro Football Hall of Fame in the future. (approx. 17:20)
This week on the Highbrow Segment, we dove into the decline of importance in the running back position in football, and how it affects the Eagles salary cap. Also, how does the decline of importance in the position translates to Ezekiel Elliott's contract negotiation and Le'Veon Bell sitting out a year and not really gaining anything by doing so? (approx. 25:20)
Then on the Lowbrow Segment, we talked about the most annoying fan bases in sports. There are too many, so we'll be bringing this one back in the future. (approx. 43:20)
What we're throwing down on the Table this week is an in-depth discussion with Brandon Lee Gowton, BLG, from BleedingGreenNation.com and the BGN Radio podcast. It's our Eagles Training Camp preview! How might Carson Wentz perform right out of the gate? Who will win the linebacker positions, and are the Eagles offensive line truly No. 1 in the league as believed by PFF? What moves might Howie Roseman make as it pertains to future compensatory picks? All of this and much more this week on the Table! (approx. 1:01:00)
