Agreed. This is legitimate definition of "brotherhood".

College teammates, basically took a journey together starting from boys just out of high school and ultimately leaving as men getting ready to play the game professionally at the highest level.

That's the recipe to forge a pretty deep bond. I have no issue with them displaying that publicly.


Bingo.

I also think there’s something to say for good sportsmanship.

You can absolutely dog fight each other on the field. But then shake hands and be cool after the game is over.

Philly beat writer(s) trying to recruit Parsons....... :banghead: :banghead: Leave my player alone!

For what it’s worth, Parsons will be playing on his fifth-year option in 2025, and while the LB has said the contract negations will take care of themselves, Cowboys owner Jerry Jones doesn’t always take care of his players. Plus, the Dallas franchise recently opened its wallet to pay Dak Prescott and CeeDee Lamb, so paying Parsons the money he’s worth might be a long shot.

What were Saquon Barkley and Micah Parsons laughing about after the Eagles beat the Cowboys?​

The Penn State alumni have been friends since college, and they reconnected Sunday after the Birds won in Dallas.

Fan bases expect players to have the same animosity towards opponents as they do and that’s not the way it works anymore. These guys are friends off the field and some even work out together. Sure they want to win when playing each other but the supposed hate for each other’s teams is played up a bit for the fan base. You wouldn’t see jersey swaps and things like that if there was a true dislike.

Let's have some fun ........Since Philly wants Parsons so badly, say Howie called Jerry and asked what would take to trade him to the Eagles.
What would be your price .......Parsons to the Eagles

My price
2025 1st round pick
2026 1st round pick
2025 2nd round pick
Jalen Carter DT
Barkley RB
I would use $40M projected to sign Parsons to sign Carter AND Barkley to new deals

Oh course this will never happen but ...........
No one on this earth is giving up two 1st round picks for Parsons.

One 1st round pick and save the money that he will want, then find a good player on a rookie contract.

Dak, and 8 track player are taking to much money as it is, no need to pay the man child big money.

.....Parsons will get paid, because Jerry pays all his Clowns to perform.

This board is insane… future hall of fame player…. One of the best in football. “But he has a podcast”… who cares. He performs on the field.

Ppl just need to blame someone… same thing they did with ware. If parsons goes to the eagles he wins a Super Bowl.

It’s insane how much we hate our best players…. What is is some sort of coping mechanism with our fans? Not parsons fault this is a clown show organization. Put him on a good team and watch what happens

They’re both Nittany Lions, Saquon probably recruited him. CeeDee and Hurts had the same interactions after every game for years because they were college teammates; were people angry at that too?
If you weren't a troll I'd blast this pathetic response where it belongs but.........yeah. no thanks. Try again

I don’t know about CeeDee and Hurts, but Barkley was the host assigned to Parsons and his family on his Penn State visit when they were trying to convince him to attend Penn State. Both players’ parents subsequently met. Whitehall, where Barkley played high school ball and Harrisburg where Parsons played is less than a two hour drive apart. Association’s like these among NFL players is not unusual.

I don't care about micah and Barkley. Only clueless posters think micah being a mentally soft, wanna be friends with other players is a Barkley only incident.

Hurts was CeeDee’s college QB at Oklahoma

Oh please .......divisional trade, c'mon man
What do you mean, divisional trade? It would be divisional for the Eagles too...switch places, would you pay that much for Micah or are we just assuming Howie Roseman is a complete buffoon in this fantasy?

I hope Parsons gets away from Dallas. Only because Dallas doesn't deserve him. His career will be wasted in that cesspool of a team led by the biggest turd Prescott.

Who would you rather build a d-line around…Jalen Carter or Micah Parsons? It’s actually an interesting question. Both have potential to be all-time greats. I’d go with Carter because I’d rather be stout in the middle of the line,

Also, I know Carter is no saint, but Parsons is just plain annoying
The player that has been a defensive MVP candidate since he joined the league. Its not even close

Parsons is a 3-time ALL-PRO......on a rookie contract. So yes, if a team in my division wants him, that's my price. I admit I would ask as much outside the division but if I'm going to face him twice a year.....

I noticed one poster suggested Parsons is not even worth Carter straight up .......... please

As mentioned .....just having a little fun. Of course, it will never happen

But I was curious about his trade value within the division....hell, we know Quinn would love to have him also, the Giants too.
