So what was it? Did McNabb get booed or cheered?

To get some insight, I enlisted help from our two spectacular Sixers writers --

. Their responses via e-mail indicate that McNabb was cheered.

So there you have it. I understand I'm a little late with this, but I figured if Aaron was wondering, maybe some others were also. If you were at the game, feel free to chime in with your observations.

As for the rest of the week, we have a big-time post slated for Thursday. It will actually be a weekly feature here at MTC that will run every Thursday from now until the NFL draft. So be sure to check back.

And Friday, it won't be on MTC, but yours truly will be live blogging along with

Mike Potter straight from the Wachovia Center for Wing Bowl 17. It means a 3 a.m. wakeup call, but I've never been to the event so I'm looking forward to it. Any advice is appreciated. I've already been warned to wear a poncho and bring a plastic bag for my laptop in case things turn ugly.
