raise your hand if your tired of hearing about this one!

"I need to do a better job of putting players in the right position to perennially come up short of expectations"
seriously… i love how we all tell other fans that this situation is in the past and it wasn’t exactly what it was made out to be and such… then as soon as the date comes around, we hoist the flag and proudly proclaim that, “yes, today is this day that we threw snow balls at santa claus”
But T.O. and his sideline histrionics wear on a quarterback. He's like the hot stripper you tried to clean up and convert into a real girlfriend. It's a lot of fun until the moment she has her second drink while out to eat with your parents. You unravel quicker than she does.
and by “we”, I of course mean the general “we” of Eagles fans… not specifically BGN

yeah which I think us educate fans already know ...
it was cool to read but I’d rather it all just die.

I know… but as soon as this topic is mentioned… anyone that is NOT us starts bantering on about drunken Philly fans and blah blah blah…
side note… anyone else having a problem today where only half the page loads and you have to refresh it?

yeah … I saw the site was down for a little for “scheduled maintenance” … I’d like to add that this was not “scheduled” with me.

My dad called me today...
…to remind me of this ‘anniversary’ and he goes off on the fools who ever criticized Philly fans for this instance. I get sick of the story, but he gets sick of it and is very sensitive about it, having been a Phan for 50 years.
