Hi, Dr. Nick Foos!
Well, I’m not really a doctor per se, but we can all have ambitions, right? Jason has given me the opportunity to jump into the driver’s seat and steer the BGN bus a bit. For those of you who have been here for awhile, you probably know me well by now. For those of you who don’t know me all that well, I’m a diehard Eagles fan (obviously the reason I’m a part of this community) from Scranton that’s been fortunate enough to be able to call BGN home for quite a while now. I’ve thoroughly enjoyed all of my time here, have had a great experience with everyone in the BGN family, and have read some exceptional posts (and have been part of a few myself) during my time here. I will now do my little part to help bring that same sense of community and fun to everyone.
Aside from lending a hand with the latest, and hopefully greatest, Eagles news available, I am eager to start a few posting series that I’m hoping you guys will be excited about. The aim of these series is to not only bring you some really good Eagles knowledge, but to also give you more great posts during the downtime that is the offseason. First, I’m going to roll out some posts that will be part of a Football 101 Series. Let’s face it; no one knows everything about offensive, defensive, and special teams schemes, so I’ll try to tackle some common topics from all three phases of the game and break them down. Second, I’m of the opinion that you can’t get too much knowledge about this great franchise, so I’m going to try to bring you an Eagles History Series which will include general franchise history and also spotlight some of the greatest players ever to suit up for the Birds. Finally, starting around June or July, I’ll start posting some previews for our opponents for the upcoming season. Hopefully this will give us a really good peak at what exactly we’ll be facing during our march toward our ultimate goal; a Super Bowl victory.
I’m really excited to be a little bigger part of this great community and will do my best to bring you guys breaking news, solid statistical analysis, and keep the mood light wherever possible. So climb aboard, sit back and relax and I’ll keep the music on, the AC flowing, and do my best not to wander into oncoming traffic or steer us off a cliff while climbing some of the windy mountain roads.
