Tra Thomas was recently let go by 97.5 the Fanatic after co-hosting the morning show alongside Marc Farzetta and Bob Cooney for a year and a half.
The former Eagle has been active on Twitter during the pandemic and this week launched a Youtube channel with a series called “Trench Talk,” which begins with a really informative breakdown of Andre Dillard:
That was great, really good stuff from somebody who played the position at a high level over the years.
One of the criticisms I heard during Tra’s 97.5 tenure is that he didn’t offer expertise outside of football (which could be said about any of the former Eagles on WIP or the Fanatic). But when it came to breaking down offensive line play, of course he was elite. There was nobody better, and now he’s able to do it through a visual medium instead of over the terrestrial airwaves, which helps immensely.
This is something that fills a hole in Philadelphia, if you think about it, because we’d probably all agree that line play is one of the last things people are paying attention to when watching a game. You’re tracking the football, watching the quarterback, running back, or receivers. Nobody is fixated on the tackles, guards, or center. If Tra keeps doing this series regularly, it’ll be worth watching every time.

ACTUAL BLACK PERSON

Joe Biden is a despicable human being. Just look up the laws he passed in the 70s and 80s. He is a major reason why so many non violent offenders spend years in prison. Trump has done more in 3 years for blacks and Latinos than Democrats have in 50.
I saw that one. Very well said.
Joe – you are white.
Darnell is wrong. Joe is not white. Wait. Am I Joe or Harv right now? I confuse myself when I respond to myself.
Anyway – wtf am I trying to say. Let me get my thoughts together. Be right back.
any guys want to meet up and “talk soccer”? I’ wake up around 930 each day. Let’s meet in my mini nissan pickup truck, parked behind the IGA. No real names please. Just call me KK.
Can your bring some fake tshirts and show my your justin beiber tats?
Bring some hand tools also.
Chicongo had 10 murders and 38 shootings this weekend. Baltimore had 8 dead, 24 wounded.
Believe or not, Wilmington DE has passed both on a per capital basis. I wonder why?
Lies. Trump solved all that. He has done so much.
You are a liberal.
Keep swallowing that trump load.
Like you were born to do, lemming.
Seems every topic makes you think of perversion. Bad touching as a kid? NAMBLA? Crack baby?
Seems like every topic you respond with ‘NAMBLA’ and ‘crack baby’.
try something different ass wipe.
You seem fixated on some stuff the good book frowns on.
Just trying to help you go where conservatives go.
I hear it’s beautiful.
Whatever happened to Tra’s Steakshop in Center City?
Looking for some fake outrage. Need some NRA bumper sticker logic.
Trump is threatening to trample our rights – wants to govern free speech. He is upset his lies were fact checked and now wants us to be a Communist country. It’s all true.
Unacceptable. Civil war! Tyrant. Want my free speech? Come and take it!
Need all Conservatives to rally! Trump is playing with our liberties and freedom. Need some quotes from the 1800’s please.
Fake outrage demonstrations are needed ASAP.
This guy is a RHINO. Hell – he used to be a Democrat.
I want my freedom. Tyranny has no place in our free society.
Ugh! Just sayin. Embarrassing.
Y’all hear Joe Biden?
Damn! I ain’t black? You serious bro?
Trump 2020!
