My dad's driving up. Tonight, I got a call to come up to the corner tappie for a victory shot. While there, it was established that one of the people who called me up there - a single, 27-year-old woman with a slamming body - has access to some very, very good tickets, both for next weekend and for the Super Bowl should the Eagles win next week. She offered to take me, and the Super Bowl ticket wouldn't cost me anything - as I, through her, would be a guest of Jeffrey Lurie - the Eagles owner.
Congrats; Eli really sucked, for some reason our offensive coordinator decided Jacobs shouldn't be used in crucial situations and McNabb made a few big plays. The Eagles deserved it and the Giants didn't.
Good luck in Arizona.
And I'm thinking about it. I feel like this is one of the crossroads in one's life - do you go to see your family, the safe, wholesome, stable choice, or do you go to two different cities in two consecutive weekends with a woman who is not your wife, where the excitement level will be high, alcohol will flow freely, and your friend has a house with a hot tub and a reputation for parties that get completely out of control?
I'm broken. Any and all opinions and/or berations/testimonials to the riduculousness of me are welcome. By the way - I've told my wife the full story, and she's fine with me going. So she says.

I prefer to believe that the Cowboys even making the playoffs was the fluke last year.

The city of Tamp Bay is worried about Philadelphia fans arriving and ruining their lovely town.
In 2004 Jacksonville had no arrests of Philly fans during super bowl weekend. I think Tampa is just pissed that we beat the Rays in the World Series. Tampa are some of the lamest fans in the world, they didn't even sell out a game until the world series.
Eagles fans are the best in the league, and we've waited patiently for our first super bowl victory. You want to party? come to Philly after we win the the Super Bowl.

Originally posted by gregsflatI didn't even think of that! Phillies beat the Rays, then go to their city to win the Super Bowl. Best Eagles bar down there is Tampadelphia. Great time. Hard not to be distracted this week. I can only hope that Mr. Miagi comes down and gives his hand-clap-healing-death grip on Brian Westbrook's knee.

Originally posted by sasquatch672The eagles are my 5th favorite. But my wife is from Arizona so she want the Cardinals to win. But I don't really care who win the NFC Championship, but whoever it is I hope wins the Super Bowl.
Three and a half hours to kickoff. Week 14, the Eagles handed the Giants their collective asses, but that was without Brandon Jacobs. Hard to pick against the defending champions, but I think McNabb plays loose, and Dawkins takes the field knowing he doesn't have too many more chances. As hard as this might be for an outsider - or a Giants fan - to b ...[text shortened]... e Giants can match the intensity of the Eagles today. Eagles win a defensive slugfest, 17-13.
