Todays athletes are something else. Especially if you happen to play in Philadelphia. Ryan Howard one of my favorite players on my favorite team is one of the biggest violators of this notion. First of all I read in the newspaper that he wants like a multi-year 150 million dollar contract. I love the guy, love his hitting, but you can't honestly tell me that an overweight, streaky first baseman deserves a contract like that. First of all he's not a young gun anymore (29 years-old), he comes and ... Read More

Yes today for me is pretty bleak. It is Martin Luther King day. Great speaker and an inspiration to everyone.But being an Eagles fan makes anyday bad even if it is Christmas when they lose a game. Especially a game of that magnitude. Ughh I watched the game in my house yesterday. It was 24-6 at half and I was like this game is over. The Birds were basically left for dead. They made a strong comeback in the third quarter and even took the lead in the fourth. But our defense didn't come through and ... Read More

As I sit here in my house on this wonderful Monday I think to myself, how did I get to this point. A few weeks ago my life changed for the better. The Eagles won a big Thanksgiving day game against Arizona/ Then suddenly the Birds took me and the whole fanbase on a wonderful ride, that's still moving along by the way. That's right, the 2008 Philadelphia Eagles, who tied the Bungles and couldn't beat the Deadskins in the regular season, came back from the basement to make it to another NFC championship. ...

Wow is the one word to describe Sunday. I was at my GF's house that day and watching the early games. Michael Bush ran all over the Bucs and the Texans were somehow beating the Bears. I was so into it and my GF was mad at me because I wasn't paying her that much attention, but come on the Birds were in the hunt still and I was hoping for a big miracle. Bushes new name is Miracle Michael. Because he opened the door for a playoff spot for the Eagles. The Texans took care of business as well and then ... Read More

This has been a very telling time period. The Eagles are in the midst of a playoff hunt. I'm sitting here watching a Giants/Cowboys game rooting for the G-Men so the Cowgirls would get knocked out of playoff contention. Mo Cheeks got fired from the Sixers and we got a new coach. The Phillies sign a new outfielder named Raul Ibanez. I don't know how to take it all in. I'm also still stuck up at school for another couple days while I finish my Final Exams, then it's back to Philly for Winter Break. ... Read More

I'm sitting here in my college apartment and feeling pretty good listening to the local radio station in Philly and listening to all the Birds faithful calling in and being happy about the Eagles second straight victory. We finally beat the New York Football Giants. Our first victory against them since 2006. McNabb managed the game didn't do too much and Westbrook ran the ball down New Yorks throats. He had a rushing and recieving TD and helped the Birds stay alive in the playoff hunt.3 games left ... Read More

I'm sitting here in my room at like 3am.I can't sleep at all and this is the only thing to do right now. My roomate is trying to hook up with this freshman girl. Hope I'm bot blocking but I don't care, Anyway I at least get to watch my Eagles play one more meaningful game this season on Sunday against those New York Football Giants. I want them to win, the Birds fan in me wants them to win. But as life goes, nobody gets everything they want. I know realistically, the Giants are a step above the ... Read More

Today as I sit in my college dorm room after a nice Thanksgiving weekend at home in beautiful Philadelphia,PA, I must wait until next Sunday afternoon to see whether Donovan McNabb will resurrect his career in Philly and also resurrect the Eagle's season. I had a great Thanksgiving that culminated in an Eagles win. Listening to the local radio stations the next day,some callers,mostly all callers, were not very optimistic about the season. Personally I believe if we play the way we did against Arizone, ... Read More

I've said it before and I'll say it again. This season is officially in the books. Midway through the game, Reid took McNabb out.That's right, benched him like the worst kid on a little league team. He ain't even tell him he was being benched. He had his assistant coaches tell him. What a coward.Come on Reid,be a man. Explain to your franchise QB why you sat him down. Like I don't know about McNabb, but I would feel so disrespected right now. Kolb came in there and stunk it up. But we can't kill ... Read More

Ok I know the Eagles haven't been playing their best football this year. I know McNabb hasn't been throwing all that efficiently, I know Reid has been calling bad plays. With all those factors, why did they tie with the Bengals. We should have crushed them. Like crushed them. They played like a 1-8 team on offense. We played like a 0-10 team on offense. the only reason we didn't lose was becasue their kicker couldn't convert a field goal. Now I am not one to complain a lot like other Birds fans, ... Read More

Man it sucks to be stuck in college right now, I don't know if I'm going to be able to get a good job, loans are throuigh the roof. Economy is in the toilet. my favorite car company GM might go under. On the same note it sux right now to be a a Philly sports fan. The Sixers are a horrible 2-5, the Birds are a horrible 5-4, and the Flyers are second to last in their division. The Phillies won it all and not to take anything away from that but WAKE UP other Philly teams. What are you doing? The Sixers ... Read More

I'm sitting here in my dorm room this morning wondering if my fellow Eagles fans have gotten over the loss on Sunday night. probably not. To be truthful I haven't either. I listen to local sports radio in Philly and yeah my fellow fans haven't gotten over it one bit. Some blame the coaches, some blame players, some blame ownership. I myself think that it's personnel and coaching. We don't have good players on the defensive line, a young linebacker core, and getting old on the offensive line. No ... Read More

What can i say? Terriblle. One word describes how this team played last night. The defense first and foremost was just bad against Jacobs. Nobody could've stopped him last night. Everytime he ran it was for at least 5 to 8 yards. he was never really stopped in the backfield. Offensively we were pretty good last night. One interception by McNabb, to three tds. Jackson played pretty good. Baskett got a great td catch. Just not enough our defense couldn't get off the field at ALL, I love the Birds, ... Read More
