What Is Early Word? The Philadelphia Inquirer's experimental online "morning show", which began in Sept. 2005, went on hiatus in the summer of 2006, after a gradual shift to putting more of its content directly on Philly.com.
About the Host Peter Mucha, husband and father of two, grew up in Cherry Hill and is a lifelong Philly sports fan. He's been writing and editing for The Inquirer for 18 years.
His motto (at least for today): "If I'm not brief, give me grief." View Blogger profile.

Yo, T.O., Where You At? That's what the Eagles' exiled wideout is asked in his new ad for Boost mobile phones. His answer: "I'm running routes in my head right now. ... I've matured. ... I can't be stopped. ... I'm a playmaker. I'm a game-changer."
Best part, though, is where, instead of saying anything, he just cracks his neck.
That clip’s on T.O.’s Web site, whose home page has had hardly anything new for a couple of months. Silence is golden when talking costs you gold.
Sunday, though, where he was at was a Heat game in Miami, and a Fox reporter asked if he was headed for the Dolphins. After all, coach Nick Saban recently expressed interest in obtaining Owens, who has the Eagles' blessing to seek a trade. T.O.: "I have no clue." Reporter: "Any chance going back to Philly?" T.O.: "All I know is next year, I'll be playing football. Where I don't know." Correct answer: "Yeah, I'll be in Philly, and that Iran guy will win the Nobel Peace Prize." Reporter: "Any favorites? Dallas? Denver?" T.O.: "I do not know. Y'all can keep fishin', but y'ain't got nothing to hook."
