Joined today by former Eagles legend and New Orleans Saint, Hollis "Tank" Thomas. Hollis talks about growing up in St. Louis, why he didn't play football until High School, and when the moment was that Hollis knew he wanted to play defense. He tells us why he chose to attend Northern Illinois, checking the mock drafts and making a highlight VHS tape and sending them out to all 30 NFL teams. We hear about the disappointment of not getting drafted, the teams that reached out and why he choose to sign with the Eagles. We discuss his first training camp, when he realized he belonged, his welcome to the NFL moment and the things he had to do as a rookie. Tank talks about his time with the Eagles, why he was the missing link in the NFC championship draught and how they celebrated after punching their ticket to the Super Bowl. Tank reminisces about Super Bowl 39, his thoughts of Spy-Gate and how the Eagles players dealt with that heartbreaking loss. Tank talks a little about McNabb's "stomach issues", playing for Andy Reid and then we hear about his time in New Orleans playing for Sean Payton. Hollis shares life after football, why he believes that he is beloved by Eagle fans, his outstanding podcast and radio show and how he got involved in "Philly Sports Trips". We hear about cool people in his phone, his favorite piece of memorabilia and buying a car with hydraulics. All this and more with a true Legend of the Eagles
