The Decade in Review: Phillies v. Eagles - The Good Phight
With the Eagles now done for the decade, we can ask the question: who had the better decade, the Phillies or the Eagles?

Cheer up, Eagles fans: The Flyers are here - Broad Street Hockey
With the football season over in Philadelphia, Eagles fans will need somewhere to turn their sporting habits. The Flyers are calling.

Paul Domowitch: Eagles' losses all McDermott's fault? Not so fast | Philadelphia Daily News | 01/11/2010
It would be a big mistake to look at what happened to the Eagles' defense the last 2 weeks and blame it all on Sean McDermott. It would be a big mistake to think that if only Jim Johnson still were alive, the old man would have found a way to work his blitz magic and prevent the carnage that occurred in the last eight quarters of the Eagles' season.

Might have been last game as Eagle for Westbrook | Philadelphia Daily News | 01/11/2010
After what might have been Brian Westbrook's final game in an Eagles uniform, a reporter asked rookie LeSean McCoy if he thought he would be the team's primary back next season. "I'm not sure," said McCoy, who has been extremely deferential to Westbrook all season. Here's a wild guess, kid: You will be.

Hugging Harold Reynolds: DeSean Jackson Fan Not Pleased with Announcing Effort by Collinsworth & Michaels
As if watching your team get shellacked for the second consecutive week by the Cowboys weren't bad enough, not even Bud 40s and pantomime masturbation could help this young man stomach the sound of Cris Collinsworth and Al Michaels.

Stacy Andrews + Shawn Andrews = ? | Philadelphia Inquirer | 01/11/2010
Stacy Andrews said that he could have played Sunday, which raises the question: Was the little-used Eagles guard held back this season because of his surgically repaired knee or because he just wasn't good enough?

Pass to Maclin will go a long way for Vick | Philadelphia Daily News | 01/11/2010
It won't be courage awards or dogfighting speeches or endless, botched quarterback draws that will mark Michael Vick's season as an Eagle. It will be a 76-yard touchdown pass to Jeremy Maclin, thrown on a designed rollout to Vick's left, thrown on target, where the defender couldn't touch it, where Maclin could catch it and race up the sideline.

Well

I give the DeSean jersey guy credit, at least he didn’t turn into a blubbering crybaby. He handled it alright, just yell at the TV and pound the table. Besides he has a point, Chris & Al’s commentary was pretty sucktastic..

and who actually likes Chris and Al’s commentary!?

Cris is usually pretty good. He’s usually got a few good nuggets and observations throughout the game. Al is mostly useless, however, I will always remember the explosion he had during a Falcons game when they lit off fireworks inside the dome and he just went off on a tirade about how stupid that was. Madden just sort of sat there and looked confused.

Let the beasting begin.

Usually I’d agree with you, but during that game they were horrible fanboys.

Sorry, but I’d take Cris and Al over Troy Aikman and Joe Buck or The MNF crew any day. But nothing beats listening to the local radio broadcast by Mike and Merril.

I'd take anyone over Joe Buck

Cris usually has good insight, but he is just so goddamned condescending it makes my ears bleed. Even for someone raised in a cynical household, his seeming disdain for so many, many things is hard to take.
