Around the NFL - 2011

lol...you are acting like the eagles have won anything in your era....typical modern day fan

trust me if you were around back then youd laugh at andy reid and banner inc

MDS · February 06, 2011, 01:24:44 AM

oh my god stupid you know i hate all of them...especially donovan

but as bad as they are theyve actually won something where as no matter how much hyperbole you want to throw into the buddy era his teams didnt win a friggin playoff game

i cant deny that actual vitriolic hatred with dallas >>>anything now but the nfl and sports as a whole are so corporate that actually intense rivalries do not exist

theres nothing i can say that would adequately describe to you that time in eagles history...im confident i am hyperbolizing but even taking that out it was off the charts incredible and nothing that has happened under banner inc has compared to the buddy era except possibly the nfc championship game vs atlanta...that was truly incredible....but i was too young to enjoy the eagle dallas 80 johnson...im sure if i was older when that happened it would just destroy the 05 game

moral of the story is that back then was incredible and dwarfs the overall "results" of the banner inc era

so just to recap

very fun 10-6 seasons with zero postseason success > the andy reid era

question...does a super bowl put the andy over the top

ice grillin you · February 06, 2011, 01:52:36 AM

you are putting way to much emphasis on end results that dont include a championship over overall enjoyment

regular season records dont matter than much when you dont win it all....TO year was special...ill put that one season up with many of the buddy years...but in the end im talking about an overall vibe...you could miss the playoffs with buddy and it would be one thousand times more enjoyable than going 10-6 with andy

the andy super bowl is an excellent question...ive said this on cf and gotten killed for it but i honestly believe that a superbowl by this regime would not be over the top enjoyable for me because of the people that would also be basking in it...i know guys like romey will mock me for this but its just how i feel

I get it. Watching them win the SB would be euphoric for about 6 minutes until Banner got in front if a microphone. Then it would be terrible listening to him tell us how he was right all along.

i mean this has been my point for my whole life to a lot of people...not to just this board altho i seem to have to explain it more here than anywhere else

but anyway the bottom line is you want to like the people who represent your team...and that goes for the #2 qb to the owner...if that whole aura is zesty then winning isnt as enjoyable...i just dont get how people dont see this

MDS · February 06, 2011, 02:18:10 AM

im with you on some of it

but despite anything the point of all of this is to win

the phillies 08 title was one of the greatest moments of my life and i could not care less that a piece of shtein like wheeler or the cigar brothers or claire bentz or some needledick phony like montgomery were loving it

its one of those things we can hopefully compare it to later

like have the eagles win under banner inc next year then compare that to how we feel in 2065 when they win under the next owner

ice grillin you · February 06, 2011, 02:27:32 AM

i will admit wheels definitely took some shine off that title...but come on it was minicule because the phillies were/are about as likeable as you can get...in the entire organization wheels is literally the only hatable employee...and really does an announcer matter that much when you are talking about a championship

altho good god is that video of him sickening

brady first ever unanimous league mvp....impressive

I suppose they didn't have to waste much time double checking the count.

The Titans replaced Fisher with former OL coach Mike Munchak.

Shouldn't they test him out as defensive coordinator first?
