Week 3 - Giants: Home Sweet Eli

[QB Eagles]

awesome!  the power of prayer prevails! 

awesome!

Yeah, awesome. Awesome, awesome, awesome.

[Rome]

I was really happy until someone in the Pub said they won because no one on the Eagles kneeled.

Then I remembered how much I hate humans and switched to Jameson.  shtein got fuzzy after that.

But yeah, Go Eagles and whatnot.

did anyone on the giants kneel  ?

[Rome]

Only when Elliott was lining up his final FG attempt. 

That's why the Eagles won.

NO KNEELING!

Other than the missed tackle when he seemed half between jumping the route and half tackling Marshall, I've been very pleasantly surprised with Douglas.  He has excellent awareness, is physical, and watches the ball.

Maragos took some head-scratchingly zesty angles yesterday.

Brandon Marshall gets in a verbal argument with an Eagles fan on the sideline, then spits on him

There's video in the article

[MDS]

not exactly crazy to say that that dude said something to warrant an ass beating

[PhillyPhreak54]

lol yeah without even looking at the video I would bet that the fan wasn't exactly being cordial

[General_Failure]

We're just assuming he called him a stillupfront, right?

I'm sure he was saying Giants suck or something stupid, but Marshall is thin skinned if that bothers him. Dude didn't back down, I credit him for that, Marshall ain't exactly small.

My first thought too, but there's security right next to the guy and a crowded sideline. First there's no way the fan gets away with that, second Marshall doesn't say anything except "don't disrespect me", if dude had dropped the N bomb shtein would have gone down.

[PhillyPhreak54]

He also knows that no pro athlete isn't going to issue a full ass whipping in that environment...so its easy to act tough

Marshall has always been a pretty good dude

[SD]

Marshall has always been a pretty good dude

You're joking, right? This is just up until 2012. Maybe he's cleaned is act up the past 5 seasons but he hasn't 'always' been a good dude. He's a despicable piece of shtein:

That was related to his bi-polar disorder and other mental illnesses. He received treatment and has done a great job with helping out bipolar and other mental illness campaigns.
