There is no defense

I get that some people go to games who are not fans of either team. But how could you wear the jersey of a team that isn't playing in a game. During the Eagles vs. Cardinals game on Sunday night I saw two people doing this. One was wearing a Todd Gurley Ram's jersey and another was wearing a Charles Woodson Raiders one.

 I don't understand how someone could do this. 

Calendar Fail

Gotta love NFL Calendars. On the 2015 Eagles calendar one of months features a photo of Bryce Brown. Yes the same Bryce Brown that was traded to #bills before the season started. I guess Ricky Watere was unavailable.  

Cup Fail

On Monday night I went to the Eagles/Panthers game, while I had a great time and my Eagles played well. But one thing drove me nuts I went to get a Diet Coke. While getting the drink the lady said the tops didn't fit right. The Eagles are a $4 billion company and they can't get the right size tops. Come on.

Professional Tailgating: Eagles go home

Which clubs NFL fans support in the BPL

The first full Sunday of the NFL season is here. To honor that event, the Daily Mail has given NFL fans a guide to which Barclays Premier League team that they should support. Its an interesting list, for Eagles fans out there they said we should pick West Brom. 

Eagles Training Camp: 11 vs. 11 Drills

Went to Eagles Training Camp yesterday and it was the first time fans got to the see Chip Kelly's offense. Overall I think that the offense is going to be fun to watch. Based on what we saw yesterday the offense is based on speed and match ups. Its going to be a fun and frustrating year.

First look at this years Eagles

Today we headed up to see Chip Kelly's Eagles first hand and there were a couple of things that stood out.

Here are some quick thoughts:
1. The tempo of training camp is incredible. So fast.
2. It's all about match ups. Shady lining up in the slot. DJ10 in the slot. Both Brown and McCoy in the game at the same time. Flexed out tight ends. You name it Chip is thinking of it.
3. A QB doesn't make a move without Kelly seeing it. Kelly watches the qbs like a hawk.

More to come to tomorrow.

Maybe my son has too many Eagles jerseys

My three year old has a vast collection of Philadelphia Eagles jerseys already maybe people need to stop buying them for him.

Cover Story: New York Loves Geno

So this is a slow time in New York City sports. The city's baseball teams are not yet playing well and the NBA and NHL playoffs are still early on. Leave it to the Jets to supply the story line. Draft Geno Smith and the front pages and stories are sure to flow.
