    Glad he got punched. That was a jerk move.

    Interesting but not a big deal. Just two grown men settling a dispute the old-fashioned way.

    Respect to Bowen, instead of making a lame attempt at a comeback on twitter, he cut to the chase and clocked the guy in the face.

    Typical "both guys have a gripe" scenario. McLane was in the wrong when he attacked Bowen via Twitter. If he wanted to show Bowen that he was standing by his report, he could have done it passive aggressively and just tweeted "I stand by what i said earlier" or whatever.

    On the other hand, I think we all dislike older media members that seem to be getting by on name only. That seems to be McLane's gripe and I can understand his frustration.

    Michael Vick (hand) participated in Eagles practice Wednesday and told reporters that there's a "100 percent chance" he'll play in Week 4.

    Are all sports journalists with the last name McLane incompetent?
