3. Uh...and your point would be?
Edited on Mon Sep-19-05 04:21 PM by friesianrider
Teams change every year. :shrug:

Last time I checked, SF got spanked by the Eagles. They had TO double-covered TWICE and couldn't prevent him from getting a touchdown. They could barely manage a FG! Come on.

And who was in the SB last year? I don't recall it being SF, or the Cowboys, Steelers, Packers, Raiders, Redskins, Dolphins, Giants, Broncos, Jets, Chiefs, Colts, Bears, Rams, Ravens, or the Bucs.

Does that mean all those teams suck? No. Philadelphia is a great team who nobody ever thought would make it to the SB again and they did. And, they made it through the playoffs without TO - something nobody thought we would. Plus, they have a very good chance of making it back to the SB again this year and winning. They deserve at least an ioda of respect for that.

7. Point being that spanking a bad team at home is no big deal
Everyone picked the Eagles for the SB last year, and they predictably lost.

Yes, they just beat the 49ers to leap to 1-1, but this may be as good as it gets this year for Eagles fans. It won't be so easy this year to get back to the SB. The Seahawks, Bucs, Cowboys, Falcons, Rams, Panthers, even the Giants and Redskins, could have enough to end it for Philly.

9. Everyone picked the Eagles for the SB last year are you kidding me?!?!
Edited on Mon Sep-19-05 08:08 PM by friesianrider
NO ONE did. No one even thought they would MAKE it to the SB let alone win. The same people on DU bitching about the Eagles now were the same people making fun of Philly fans last year saying we'd never get over the hump. Now we're being told to STFU about this season, too. :eyes: We are a GOOD fucking team and are PROUD of it. You can put up numbers all you want but we have some of the best players in the league and it damn well shows. I'm sorry if you cannot accept that.

You're just a Philly hater, clearly. Why people get this worked up over football is beyond me, but I can't see why or how you're automatically dismissing a team that came pretty damn close to winning the SB last year. Will they go back? Maybe we will, maybe not. But to act like they are a crappy team and don't have a snowball's chance in hell of at LEAST making the playoffs is just absurd. And if they make the playoffs they are at least a good team.

God in heaven you act like they're the fucking 49ers.

10. You're telling me!
People whose teams didn't even make the playoffs are talking shit on the Eagles like they're a shitty team. Jesus even when they didn't get to the SB they've made the playoffs the last couple years. As I recall, they DID make it to the SB last year without TO. But I guess somehow that isn't impressive enough for some. :eyes:

16. Refresh mine...where were the Bears last SB?
Edited on Mon Sep-19-05 08:40 PM by friesianrider
Oh that's right. Now I remember. Watching the Eagles in the Super Bowl. :eyes:

Refresh my recollection...did the Eagles at least go to the SB? And same people here on DU bitching about us supporting our team now were the same ones last year telling us we were full of shit for even thinking we'd make it to the playoffs, let alone the SB. Far as I can tell, only team who has any right to talk smack is the Patriots and after the loss yesterday...

You know, jealousy is a very unattractive habit ;)

19. Yeah, and where were the Bears again?
Edited on Mon Sep-19-05 08:52 PM by friesianrider
LOL did they even make the friggin' playoffs last year? You guys suck.

The Bears are freaking terrible and you're actually acting like it's the EAGLES who don't have reason to brag? We've dominated our division for the last several years and made it to the Super Bowl against all odds. Lose or win, we made it and I couldn't be prouder of our boys.

Can you say that about your Bears? Nuh-uh. Don't be jealous, my friend.

20. Can you say C H O K E ?
McNabb chokes like a $2 hooker at the end of the SB. Yep. There's something to be proud of. Now McNabb and T.O. are acting like a couple of teenage girls with their little feud. The Eagles suck. They're going nowhere. Worse than that, Eagle fans are probably the biggest whiners on the planet. Wahhhh!!! If only we coulda scored more points against the Falcons, we'd be 2-0!!! :rofl:

21. Dude...Chicago was 5 and 11 last year.
Edited on Mon Sep-19-05 11:30 PM by friesianrider
...and you're talking smack on Philly? :eyes: You're tied for the worst losing streak in the NFL. You guys SUCK, big time.

You're a Bears fan (5 and 11 dude!) and you're talking shit about the Eagles? I notice you conveniently avoid talking about your third-rate team you so proudly display on anavatar...seriously aren't you embarassed? I'm even embrassed for you. You guys had the WORST record in your division last year!

But the Eagles suck...mmmm-kay... :rofl: :P

26. Ummm...Dudette...get a life...really
Do you really think anyone in Chicago gives a rat's ass about the Eagles? You've made my point about Eagle's fans particularly well, I must say. Talk about inferiority complex...

LOL, well *cough* I can think of at least ONE Bears fan who seems pathologically obsessed with Philly... ;)

"You've made my point about Eagle's fans particularly well, I must say. Talk about inferiority complex..."

Hun, do I sound like I feel the least bit inferior? You claim I have no reason to brag about the Eagles, and now I think the Eagles are "inferior." Mmm-kay. You guys were 5 and 11 last year with one of the worst records in the NFL, and we have made the playoffs the last several years, are two-time division champions and played in the Super Bowl last year. Trust me doll...we don't lose any sleep over the Bears :rofl: But thanks for the laugh!

I feel bad for Favre. He's a class act. He should go out on top.

17. On paper, he had a great game. I hope he does get some sort
of defense to back up his offense this year...but that's kind of wishful thinking. Green Bay has taken a wrong turn, I fear. But I'll deny saying that. ;)

24. Yeah, you Packers have 10 to my Bears 9. Wanna bet who
wins the next one between the two teams?

The NFL has been around for a lot longer than the Super Bowl has.

27. Yeah, I hear this crap from Dallas fans and I agree with you MVD
who cares about history - what did you do last Sunday.

Eagles have a great team obviously the dynasty that was once SF is now well, um, it's pretty sad when even our 2nd & 3rd stringers play better than your first string

But SF (unlike Dallas) has always been a class act team. Hopefully you guys are in a rebuilding phase and will be battling us for the championship in a few years!!

25. And your point is?
In pro sports, you're only as good as your last game. Every season starts fresh at 0-0.

The Niners haven't won a Super Bowl in a long time, and they probably won't win one in another 20 or 39 years, if even that, with the way the team is currently being run. Montana, Lott, Craig, Rice, and Young are long gone, Ace.

Sounds like sour grapes on your part. Real bush league.

And I can say this because I'm a Niner fan who lives in Northern California.

You've got no class.

30. Oh, I get it.
Because I'm a Rams fan, that makes me a BETTER PERSON than an Eagles fan but NOT as good of a person as a fan of any team who has won two Super Bowls or more. That makes sense, because all of us fans are integral to the teams' wins. :sarcasm:
