quote from parzanese1 "What people don't realize about Philadelphia fans is that they only hate the opponent when they are playing the team on a given night. There are only very few teams which get consistent hate from the Philly fans. (Dallas, Devils, Mets...maybe throw in Giants and Rangers...maybe). But the reason Philly fans are so "rude and obnoxious" as some people say is because they are loyal. We love our teams no matter if they are the best team in the league or the worst team in the league. We hate the other team because we are loyal to our team. We want our team to completely destroy the other team...and if they don't....we don't want the other team to feel like they got the best of us...so we boo them until they can't take it. We give our teams an advantage. We give them the honest opinions they deserve. If you don't play like you know you can play...we let you know it. If you play to your potential..we let you know it. Bottom line is that Philly fans are honest and loyal....not "rude and obnoxious". In Philadelphia, we live and die with our teams....and if we are going to die...we are not going to go out without a fight. We will claw, spit, scream, yell, throw, and do whatever we have to do in order to not come out on the short end. This is the exact reason Rocky has become a city icon. He was the true underdog that fought against the world....and he came out on top. Our city thrives on that type of champion....and it always will"

I just can't stop laughing. Jeff Brantley trashes Edwin Encarnacion for over a minute, and says "He is not a clutch hitter." I think most of you know how that game ended. You have to watch this.http://youtube.com/watch?v=tqYUmK9xpRY

First, win out.We own tiebreakers over (if we win out): Minnesota Detroit Arizona (If they win out, we tie in conference games, but win in common games played) Saints (assuming we win out) We don't own tiebreakers: Carolina Chicago Washington So here's what has to happen. Chicago beat the Vikings tonight. This is one of the toughest parts. Minnesota has to beat Redskins next week Redskins have to lose to Minnesota AND Dallas Carolina must lose to Dallas OR Tampa Bay Chicago has to lose to Green Bay OR New Orleans AFTER beating Minnesota Minnesota must lose to Denver It's…

I'm pretty sure that by now everyone has heared that Redskins safety Sean Taylor was shot and is in critical condition. I don't care if you hate or if you love the Redskins, everyone should support a fellow person when something like this happens.   I'm not going to make this long, but I'm just going to ask you to support Sean Taylor. Thanks.
