And let’s face it, Darrell Green is damn good. Throwing in his general direction anytime during the game is generally a bad idea. It’s nice to see that in the topsy-turvy world of the past few years of NFL, one thing has remained constant: the Eagles still suck. (Even the Saints won today…the \* Saints. \* ) ---

Throwing in his general direction anytime during the game is generally a bad idea.** Umm, did you see the two TDs that McNabb threw in the game? Y’know which CB was burned on both of them? (Hint: It wasn’t Deion, nor was it Chump Bailey.) Yup, it was Darrell “Toast” Green. ---

Whine whine whine…the man has had an interception every season for the past 17 years. And the Eagles still suck with all the power of 120 foot Hoover. It’s always a pleasure to see them lose once again (and what’s this? Also drop out of the first place NFC east tie?). Hey, maybe one day they’ll have a real team…if they switch players and coaches with the Redskins. ---

I’m sure they will have the opportunity to switch coaches when the Skins choke come January. As a Packer fan with no loyalty to the Skins or Eagles… The Eagles got jobbed. Nonetheless I do believe Chief needs to show up and face the music. That horrible Redskin music… Ohh, and despite the happenings on 10/1 THE BEARS STILL SUCK! THE BEARS STILL SUCK! ---
