49er fan here rooting for the Eagles

Hey wsup Eagle Nation?

Congratulations on being left for dead during the regular season, only to advance all the way to at least the NFC title game.

Whenever my beloved 49ers aren't in the playoffs and the Eagles are, I always cheer for ya'll to go all the way. I've always had the utmost respect for Donovan Mcnabb. The guy is AMAZING. Other than T.O. and Donte Stallworth, he hasn't had any quality receivers (That I can think of anyway). Even with those challenges, he has managed to take you guys to many NFC title games along with a trip to the Super Bowl. My favorite team in all of sports is the Golden State Warriors, so I can relate to having a team that's an underdog and taking it to the big boys. You guys whooped on the Cardinals, and Cardinals fans say the Cs had nothing to play for when that happened. Although that may be true, I think Donovan has something to prove as he's a very hungry quarterback. I feel that whenever he's healthy, the Eagles can compete with anybody the league has to offer.

There was talk earlier this year that Andy Reid and/or Donovan Mcnabb would be gone after this year. I personally got excited when someone on ESPN at that time said keep a close eye on Donovan Mcnabb, because if he's cut loose, the 49ers will definitly go after him. Seeing how he's played, I know not to get excited about the possibility of that happening.

Nonetheless, I will be at my homeboy's house, who is from New Jersey and is an Eagles fan, to watch the game. While I will forever be a part of the 49er faithful, I will wear my T.O. Eagles throwback jersey every day the Eagles are still in the playoffs to show my faith in them. I know, I know, but it's the only Eagles apparel I have. T.O. was still my favorite player when he left the 49ers, so I bought his Eagles jersey back then. That's why I have an Owens jersey :-) Good luck, Eagle Nation. I hope your title comes this year. You guys deserve it.

You're right

He’s not my favorite player anymore. I don’t like how he never takes blame, and he’s constantly pointing the finger at anyone else. That’s not cool at all.

Thanks Golden Boy

Classy post. By the way, I was rooting hard for the Warriors when they knocked off the Mavs a few years ago. That was a great series!

Thanks for being part of "We Believe"

O man, that was my first year of being a season ticket holder. Being at the Warriors playoff series win vs the Mavs was indescribable.

Other than T.O. and Donte Stallworth, he hasn’t had any quality receivers (That I can think of anyway).

uhhh… Todd Pinkston, Freddie Mitchell, Greg Lewis. Just to name a few. Donny has always been surrounded by superstars.

Who wants to play Leapfrog with Trent?

uhhh...

Pinkston, Mitchell and Greg Lewis weren’t big names. I’m sure other Eagles fans would agree with that.
