Almost Game-Time

Alright, Tony Romo's hands for Jeremy Shockey's, straight up. Or, we'll trade Pat Burrell for LaDainian Tomlinson. Straight up. Today's game is the kind of game where you really have to be nervous if you're an Eagles fan. This is the one we love to blow. After going into the Meadowlands and out to Dallas as underdogs, we're finally favored...sort of. Because everyone knows these are the games Philadelphia teams love to blow. So that's a pretty big consideration. The last time the Eagles were in the post-season was not long ago, but then, Philadelphians were still fans of T.O. at that point, so a lot has changed. I am expecting our QB to avoid throwing up in the huddle, I am expecting one Brian Dawkins to throw the BPAS into play with huge success, and I am hoping Eli throws just as many interceptions as his big brother did yesterday. And, like a good Philadelphia sports fan, I will scream and rant and hate on everything and everyone if we don't win. And then I will sink into a long, glazed-over depression until baseball season. Go Eagles.
