and Chase Utley. they must be trying to curse us further.
fargin' SI dudes.
Its not possible for a curse to effect the Phillies. They suck regardless.
Haha. That's what I was thinking too, MDS.
Although, considering they're the losing franchise in the history of sports, maybe the S.I. curse would work in reverse for them?
Nahhhhhhhhh... :-D

I'd much rather he finds a more emasculating and painful way out.
Blow torch up the ass?
How are we a Cinderella team when we won the division?

They didn't mention it, but the Eagles are actually a transsexual Cinderella team.
Is this a Jinx?
a cinderella team in the nfc?
thats funny
I just said the other day, if the Eagles win the divison, watch Garcia be on the cover of SI. I teh rule

i can never celebrate that hit like i want to because they lost. however i really want to buy that and frame it
Agreed.
I'll still buy it though.
Quote"We had been working on that play all week," says Brown. "We even watched film the morning of the game. The first time we played them, they killed us with the flare route. They want to run me off and get Reggie matched up one-on-one with a linebacker. So we put in a play where, if the receiver releases, I just sit and then fly up and hit Reggie on the flare."
"He was lucky," Brown says. "His elbow was pinned against his body, protecting his rib cage, or else I probably would have broken his rib. What did it feel like? That collision, I didn't feel nothing, because he was pretty much defenseless. It was like running through a cardboard box. Seriously. Cardboard box."
:-D
I like the quote not for what idiots will interpret as smack talk at the end there--Bush was like a cardboard box that time, because he was totally unprotected; Sheldon isn't trying to say Bush is weak or soft or any of that kind of garbage--but for his commentary on how the play happened.
His comments play to my imagination of the play i.e., I imagine the Eagles called exactly the right play and everyone on D knew it right away and Sheldon got to lick his lips mentally from the snap to the hit. It was a sweet, sweet play that must have felt fantastic not just for Sheldon but for the whole D.
Unfortunately the Eagles shat the bed after that.
i wouldn't say they shat the bed after that, it was a competitive, entertaining game in which our head coach made one of the most mind numbing decisions seen in playoff football in the past 15 years. then his kids did drugs, drove cars into people and played with guns.
Again, punting on 4th and 15 wasn't nearly as aggregious as that farging flare pass to the guy with a replacement hip on 4th and 1 from the 2.
What made it worse was his excuse: "Well, it worked all season." No shtein, really, fatass? Maybe, just maybe, the Saints saw that too and planned for it. Kotite with a 'stache.
as usual refusing to run the ball was another agregious mistake by reid in the game....he pretty much put a perfect clinic on how not to coach that night
id have to look back but i think the eagles ran the ball twice in the third quarter that game and like five times in the second half total...and three of them was inside the five on the tapeh debacle
all I remember was F for farging FAILURE
I didn't take Sheldon's comments as if he was saying Bush was a flag or something. I just like the fact that he described the hit that way because when you drill someone the way he did on a football field, that's exactly what it feels like. He could have said tacking dummy or trash bag full of styrofoam peanuts too but the cardboard box comparison was perfect.
it's the same thing when you hit a baseball perfectly or when you hit a golf ball perfectly, you don't feel it, you hit the sweet spot perfectly and you don't even feel the object you are striking

I'm with you on that one.
Man, I tell you... when Sheldon hit Bush like he did, the bar I was at got so farging loud, that had that been ruled a fumble and the defense ran it in for a TD... it would have actually gotten
quieter in there. That should have been looked back on as a statement that the Eagles were there to win and move onto Chicago.
Instead... it's still thought of as a really nice play and all, but you can't really think about it without thinking about how the game turned out... which was some ol' bullshtein. Bullshtein for real.

same here. the place just went nuts. it was great. until....
I swear to MDS that I can't get that goddamn Young penalty out of my head. I almost want to get a spot by the fence and heckle him non-stop about it. Would I? Probably not. But it is very tempting.
When I saw Baskett make that catch I'm like holy shtein I can't believe they got that. Another miracle 4th down play in the playoffs by a WR who wears #84. But no. Flag. The end. Goddamit.
how about the punt on 4th down...GO TEAM!
That should have never even happened though.
Stopping the run + Scott Young + Garcia dumping it to Tapeh = murderous rage
