Fly Like an Eagle
As you can see from the above photos, I'm an Eagles fan. I have been supporting the team since my parents moved to Valley Forge in 1979 where they lived for 12 years. I love all things Philly including the cheesesteaks (especially the cheesesteaks), the eagles, the phillies, the sixers (not so much), and, of course, Rocky. The history is pretty cool too.
I love the eagles the most though. This is our year. Of course I say that every year. Coach Reid has put his kids legal troubles aside and is focused on a run to the Super Bowl. Andy is so big that people actually orbit around him. He's like a big bear. A meat lover to be sure. Our QB Donovan McNabb is finally healthy after years of injuries - a broken foot, a torn ACL....he's ready to start slinging some fastballs. We're fast this year too with the addition of Lorenzo Booker and DeSean Jackson from Cal.
My predication: Eagles go 12-4
I have to pick them for the Super Bowl too.
I have to.
For Jake.
For me.

not 3 weeks ago you told me you wanted to trade McNabb
When the Colts play the Eagles in the Super Bowl, will I still be invited to watch it in the basement?
Jake would be proud. GO EAGLES!

GO EAGLES!!!!!!!
I love the Eagles. Although I haven't yet lost my objectivity (as I have with BYU). There is no way in heck they go 12-4, especially in their division. My prediction: They will go 9-7 and finish third in their division. But I hope you're right, Keith. I hope you are right.
