  • I'll fight anyone on this board now...

    Once was funny, tends to be a feeling we get after such games.

    UGH.

    See you guys next year...

    I don't have the enrgy to fight anyone right now anyway.

    I'm not angry. Maybe that will come later. Right now I'm more sad, disappointed, feeling just beaten.

      I'm not angry either. I just feel kinda... defeated.

        I feel "empty." Like my reason for tolerating winter was just flushed down the toilet. I used to live for every game, even back in the late 90's when they sucked out loud. Then they became great .... and suddenly my expectations got really high going forward. Now I just feel...empty. Like there's nothing won't be anything to look forward to for a long time.

          I'm just annoyed...gotta wait another 10 months to get my hopes up again.

          There's still other teams, other games for my football jones...but it's not the same thing when "your" team isn't a contender anymore.

          I'm hoping Andy throws us a friggin bone and plays some of the young guys, it'll be something to hold our interest. (What I'm afraid of getting is lots of passes to Westbrook for 3-5 yards a clip, and Westbrook breaking down)

            I don't let a football game control me like they used to anymore.

            Just got back from a great vacation. Thanksgiving coming up. Going back to school in January. Getting a big ass Samsung DLP HDTV for my b-day in March. Too much good stuff going on to let them get me down.

            I love my Iggs but I'll be damned if I let them make me feel like shit.

                  I'm not pissed off. Not really. In fact, I'm probably more at peace now.

                  The last month or so, I have gone back and forth, teetered on the edge of "we could be a good team if we just got our shit together", and "we stink". Now I know the truth, and I can just accept it and deal with it. My level of angst on Sundays will be far less than it has been. I am just going to casually watch the games, and hope for a win. But know that it doesn't really matter. Much like around this time LAST year. It's not so bad.

                    You guys suck.



                    Actually, I have a family vacation to Maui coming up after Christmas. I kept thinking how I was going to find time to watch the Eagles-Cowboys on Christmas day (the day before we leave) and the Falcon game when we are there. I also thought I might miss their first playoff game when we are traveling back.

                    As Jim Mora Sr. once said: "PLAYOFFS?"

                    I can now enjoy my holidays without all the tension of that the Eagles bring.

                      You know, deep down that's what I was feeling. But then again, I felt like I've lost something yesterday. My question is, why? Why should we lose our only player capable of leading this team deep in the playoffs, and why should we lose our best pass rusher? Why couldn't for example lose Dhani Jones, or maybe one of the DTs, or maybe one of the OLs?

                      In other words, I am not angry. I was yesterday at their piss poor effort, but in general, I tend to forget those things.

                      I am just left with the "why" part. Why us? Why in Philly? After all, those Boston fans with the "curse" got the Patriots and the Celtics. Chicago had the Bulls. LA has always had success.

                      What do we have? Always lost opportunities, bad luck, bad everything.

                      The Sixers make the 2001 NBA finals and lose by virtue of all sorts of injuries, a couple of lucky threes, and a monster Shaq. The Flyers manage to take Tampa to game 7 of the ECF, only to lose there. The Phillies, well, I've never gotten hopes for them at least.

                      The Eagles always were in the run. Never got there.

                      This is just another day in the life of a Philly sports fan.

                      And I repeat...why us?

                      Can we build a couple of more stories on the Tower Bell and raise that statue higher than the Liberty Malls?

                        I really hate to say it but I have a bad feeling about the nucleus of this team from andy reid on down, I have been as big of an apologist as there is, but yesterday even with McNabb we outright sucked. Dropped balls, poor tackling, a botched field goal attempt. Finally learning how to gobble up chunks of the clock in the 3rd and 4th quarter only we were down 18pts, not a good time to get up to speed with that.

                        It just reeks of a chronic systemic problem, more than just a few bad plays or bad players.

                        That being said, I will still try to be the eternal optimist with each game but these really are the times that test the limits of your fanhood

                          I'm just going to root for the Chargers come playoff time so at least i'll have a reason to watch.

                          This sucks. Fucking team is imploding all around, something needs to be done, but i don't know what.

                            I'm a sincere Eagles fan, but not an NFL junkie. I seldom watch other teams much anyway. Now, my interest in the NFL is tepid at best. There plenty of other things to enjoy and worry about.

                            After yesterday, I will still pay attention to future Eagles games, but the energy, the anxiety, the hope and anticipation is gone...

                              To be honest with you guys, I haven't been fired up since the Super Bowl. I'm still on a downer. Now when they win, I say to myself, ok. When they lose, I don't react much... just turn the channel.

                              It just isn't worth the emotional investment. Maybe it's because I'm older ... I don't know but I just don't make the emotional investment in this team that I used to.
