The Linc 7.26.07 - We are so now it's not even funny

Sum Sum Summertime!

Here's hoping that nasty SI cover jinx doesn't hit our Sheldon Brown. (Eagles Eye)

Stop the E!SPN "Who's Now" contest right now. A winner has already been crowned. (Sport is stranger than fiction)

In light of the NBA ref scandal, here's a whole lotta thoughts on the state of refs in the NFL. (Iggles Blog)

I'd be an Eagles fan no matter what, but it helps to know that we really are rooting for the good guys. For proof check out the story of Eagle Joe. (Eagles Chronicles)

Eagles rookie RB Tony Hunt is a headline writer's dream. In The Hunt, The Hunt Begins, The Hunt For Red October... (Eagles Gab)

Watching the video of that Brown on Bush hit from last year's playoffs really never gets old. It's basically porn for football fans. (Eagle Scout)

And so is the 2004 NFC Title game. Sigh... (Inside the Iggles)

Hey, it's Only Three More Days Until We Can Stop Pretending To Care About The Phillies. Ouch! (Fortress of Pillows)

Mike McMahon is back in the business of ruining seasons, this time in Cananda! Don't say we didn't warn you Canada. We stand on guard for thee. (Toronto Star)

This is always fun, how about pics of hot sportscasters? Sorry Barry Melrose fans, lady sportscasters only! (Sports Culture)

Part of me wonders why the Eagles even bothered putting the the Best Eagles DE Ever up for a vote? (PhiladelphiaEagles.com)

If any of you had the chance to hear Mike Francesa(of Sports Talk WFAN in NYC) talk with ESPN's John Walsh you were treated to some of the most compelling sports talk radio ever. (The Big Lead)

Apparently there is some ridiculous event called the World Cup... of American football held last week. The US won in overtime against Japan. By the way, the US had never entered the World Cup of American Football before... (Rumors & Rants)

NFL songs should stop with Fly Eagles Fly. That's as good as it gets. This other nonsense is just embarrassing. Sorry Raider fans. (With Leather)

Finally, I gotta say... this Bear Grylls guys is just a flat out badass. (YouTube)

LOL

I actually watched part of a Toronto Argonauts game on Sunday while I was working. McMahon's bad in the CFL, too.

off the topic perhaps...

but i was thinking today... I wonder if the birds will retire the #20 when dawkins retires... if they don't what do you guys think of this idea? I think michigan does this in college, but it would be kinda cool if they reserved the number 20 for a ferocious hitter (especially a saftey) since i believe the last two people to wear 20 were dawk and andre waters. Im sure they'd never actually do that, but it would be a real honor for a player to be selected by his team (or teamates) to wear number 20.

I guess it would have be a safety or corner

on bear

you didn't see the article? apparently, he pretends to be completely alone in the outdoors, but he stays in hotels some nights and also has people build stuff, then take it apart so that he can seem to build it.

I did see that

Although I have to say... The guy doesn't fake eating a live snake, he can't fake jumping into quicksand or freezing cold water. So while it is disappointing is that story is true, it doesn't really change my opinion of him all that much. I'll still get a kick out of watching him do all that ridiculous stuff. Like... drink his own urine.

It's almost like the new Jackass...
