One more celebration thread

We'll soon be getting into the Minnesota game, but before then I think it's time to celebrate just a little bit longer...

How funny is look on Westbrook's face as he watches McNabb dance?

First, how about a little well deserved schadenfreude? (click the link for a fine definition!)

Cowboys bloggers are understandably incensed with their team writing articles such as, "Disgusting display by a bunch of losers" & "Coming to grips with reality". There's some particularly good stuff in that second artlcle.

The Cowboy youtubers are just priceless. These were all posted in the minutes following the game.. "Eagles crush Cowboys, Absolutely pathetic!", "Embarrassment doesn't even come close", and my favorite guy who picks the Eagles go deep in the NFC playoffs.

Cowboys fans are doing more than just blogging and vlogging to show their displeasure... One fan showed up at their practice facility with a sign that read,

The Cowboys have no heart, and coach Wade Phillips is an embarrassment to the star.

While Dallas players didn't have enough heart to get physical with the Eagles, they certainly didn't mind getting physical with their own fans... The sign holding man was attacked by linebacker Bradie James, who tore up the mans' sign and broke his sunglasses.

In addition to attacking their own fans, Dallas players also directed their anger at one another. Yesterday reports surfaced of yelling and finger pointing in the huddle, arguments on the sidelines, and even a fight on the plane ride home.

Here's Eagles fan, "themightyerock" berating the Cowboys as they walked off the field...

It really was a beautiful day wasn't it?

And finally, these two Eagles fans did a pretty great custom tribute song to the Eagles win over Dallas!

Funniest Comment...

Funniest comment I heard about Romo was on a Dallas newspaper site…when talking about “Romo Falling in the Shower” incident, the commenter wrote, “He must have fumbled the soap”…I spent hours cracking up on that one…Fly, Eagles, Fly…

Okay...

I’m generally not the type to gloat, but those videos with the Cowboys fans on YouTube made me laugh so hard my sides hurt.

That takes some guts, so give them props for doing it. If my team had lost I’d be busy hanging myself.

I couldn't understand the words (most of them)

And those kids have no talent. Other than that, I liked it.

Power Running Game

After watching the Beautiful Day video several times, I have decided that we may want to use Chris Clemons in our power running game. That stiff arm of Tashard Choice was textbook.

Listening to the song without the video, I ask: who’s raping a cat, and why is it on YouTube?

I just got back from Atlantic City and I have just one thing to say....

HOW ’BOUT THEM COWBOYS?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HOW ’BOUT THEM MUTHA****IN DALLAS COWBOYS?!!!!!

I was on vacation for my 7th anniversary, and my wife and ended up watching the 2nd-4th quarter at a sports bar at the Caeser’s Pier shops (I think it was called “Game On”. Good place.), and there were a whole bunch of Eagles fans going absolutely nuts there. Singing the fight song and everything.

The best part was when all the Cowboys fans left at the end of the 3rd quarter, to chants of “na na na na, na na na na, hey hey hey, goodbye!”

I just don’t have words. I would have been thrilled with just derailing Dallas’ playoff hopes. When I found out Oakland and Houston had helped us out, I feared the classic choke situation, so for them to just come out with a performance like that — I just don’t know that I’ve ever had so much fun watching the Eagles.

(Sorry guys, I know that’s barely English).

Prior to the game, I saw a cool old-logo hat at a store there, and I made a bargain with the hat gods that if the Eagles won, I would buy it. I have like 30 Eagles hats, so it was the last thing I needed, but other than the NFC Champions hat in 2004, I’ve never been so happy to waste money on one.

I wonder if I can bill Jeff Lurie and Peter Angelos for the years of therapy their teams are going to put me through.

D’oh…that would have been cool.

I was down for my anniversary for a few days (which was actually Monday). My attitude was basically, “I want to watch the game if I can, but I’m not going to let a relatively meaningless game dictate our dinner/gambling plans on Sunday night.” Especially since the 4:00 start made it more inconvenient to make dinner plans.

We were killing some time on the shopping pier before dinner and stopped in the sports bar to have a drink watch a little of the game before going to dinner, and I saw TB and da Bears lost. My awesome wife suggested that we grab dinner (we were going to the Continental, which is super fast anyway) then so we could get back to the sports bar to watch most of the game there.

So, it ended up being just pretty spur-of-the-moment. “Game on” was a fun place to watch the game, though.

I wonder if I can bill Jeff Lurie and Peter Angelos for the years of therapy their teams are going to put me through.
