I turned it off after the Moats fumble-TD.  5:30 comes early.

Well, since I get few Eagles games over here and I had taken leave this whole week, I stayed up to watch the whole game.  I could feel your guys' pain almost 4,000 miles away. Similar games I've watched in the past included the Eagles 42-3 loss to the Rams on MNF in 1975; the 40-something to teens loss to the Broncos in Ryan's first year (I was at that game in 1986). I just could not believe it.

I remember that 75 MNF game.  Roman Gabriel's first game against the Rams after he became a bird.  I recall Ram LB Isiah Robertson having a huge night.  Mike McCormack's last year which opened the door for Vermiel.

Anyone remember 1972 at Yankee Stadium?  Gmen 62 Birds 10.  That was the worst of times.

It sucks any way you look at it.
An ad hominem fallacy consists of asserting that someone's argument is wrong and/or he is wrong to argue at all purely because of something discreditable/not-authoritative about the person or those persons cited by him rather than addressing the soundness of the argument itself.

I never leave before the end, and we had planned on staying at least through the Reggie ceremony; but, as Sus said, a guy can only stand to get his sack vised so many times...and, I guess our tolerance for pain is lower than his. We left inside the two minute warning of the first half.

"Cheerleaders" lifted our spirits a little bit, though...if only I could've talked the bartender into turning the TVs off.

Damn..must have seen it on TV..BUT I do remeber many posters hanging from Vet for the rest of the year reminding the birds of 62-10

Much like everyone else.  I've never left a game before it ended, or stopped watching on TV until it was over.  Monday, me and my sales girl headed off to her truck after the first "drive" of the 3rd.  We turned the game on the radio in her truck, cranked up the heat, and pounded a few more beers.

The drawback to marital longevity is your wife always knows when you're really interested in her and when you're just trying to bury it.

Damn, Demon, leaving a game you flew in from KC to see.
At least that wasn't your only reason for being there.
Anyone but Reid.

I watched the whole game but flipped back and forth with Family Guy toward the end.
Alert, alert. Look well at the rainbow. The fish will be running very soon.

Exactly what I did....along with playing Madden '06 on a separate TV (during the 2nd/3rd quarters) with the game on a big screen.

Yeah...   it kinda adds to the saying that a person is smart, but people are stupid....
