  • Akers' billboard to thank Philly's fans

    Just heard about this. Freaking cool....................
    "Philly fans are great....It's the only place where you pull up on the bus and you've got the grandfather, the grandmother, the kids and the grandkids - everybody flicking you off. At other stadiums, they give you the thumbs-down. Here, they give you the middle finger.”
    — Michael Strahan

    "No one likes us, no one likes us, no one likes us, we don’t care, we’re from Philly, F—-ing Philly, No one likes us, we don’t care!”
    - Jason Kelce with the best championship speech ever

      Best Philly kicker ever and a great human being. Wish we could have kept him a few more years.
      We're looking for people that are fundamentally different,” vice president of player personnel Andy Weidl said Saturday night. “The love and passion for football, it's non-negotiable. They're caring, their character, they do the right thing persistently, and they have a relentless playing style that you can see on tape. The motor, it burns hot. You see them finishing plays. They have a team-first mentality. They're selfless individuals.

        I agree...for a UDFA, he became one of the highest scoring kickers in NFL history and was always a totally classy guy...one of my favorites that will be missed. I was hoping they would keep him. Good luck David, hope a trip to the HOF is in your future.

            Hard to end a 12 year run on good terms unless it's a retirement. I've got Akers name autographed on a football from the first Flight Night, so that will be a way for me to remember him. I may have cursed him a time or two when he missed a big kick, but for the majority of David's career, he was simply "Money". Good luck DA, and thanks.

                Wow! What a class act. Just rose to become one of my favorite all-time Eagles' players!

                  I hear that it's on northbound I-95 near the stadium.

                    Loved Akers but he was very unclutch.
