Everybody on that last round of cuts was about the same level of physical skill, so Vermeil opted to keep Papale on the team because of the intangible of him being a connection to the fanbase.<br /><br />I suppose if Papale had been a local product who'd gone to college and played football at, say, Penn, and had gone on to play for the Eagles he'd have the same intangibles for him. It wouldn't have been made into a Disney movie, however.Redbeardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05306063084983025771noreply@blogger.com
