First of all (before anything else that is), I just have to address Mr. Tony Romo for royally screwing up once again. I'm not so found of this guy as of recent, first he manslaughters my fantasy team in the PLAYOFFS~! (Marion Barber too, thanks a lot crackerjacker). Well anyway, I'm sure my boy Koy Detmer showed babyface how holding the goddamned football is done. Way to go Koy, and David Akers - we all know some other kickers would of choked and shanked it to the right *cough* Vanderjagt *cough*. "Most accurate kicker in NFL history" not looking so hot now, eh?.... Yeah, I know I'm late at that; but I just can't resist taking a shot at the Cowboys at this point in time. Better luck next year, fellas.
And uhhhh..... those EAGLES~! I'm somewhat disappointed they let the Giants stick around like that. The play in the first quarter sure was enough to scare a few people, thank God for the defense... which magically re-appeared out of nowhere after a woeful start (to the season). It'll be fasssssccciinnnating to see what Jeff Garcia can do against the Saints. I've been rooting for the Saints since the beginning of the season so this is a bit of an interesting matchup, eh? But I ultimately have to jump on the home-team bandwagon just a liiitttlle bit. Gotta tip the 'ol hat to Andy Reid though, thanks for giving up the offensive play calling to Marty Mornhinweg. If he hadn't done that, Garcia would be slinging the ball out there like it was nobody's business, and he definitely wouldn't look nowhere near as good as he does at the moment. Something like a Brett Favre of last season, and that's not pretty... not that he was that pretty this season either; although he did win the NFL's sexiest man award, courtesy of FOX Sports - how 'bout that, eh? I won't be surprised if I see the big man in a cialis commercial soon, the way he's going with "hollywood" deal - seriously, anyone see that great battery commercial he starred in. He made those things look good, although I forgot the brand name... but whatever.
Whoops, looks like I let my Green Bay Packers fetish get the better of me. Anywho, since the ol' Eagles have made it this far - I'm willing to bet they're gonna get whizopped this week at New Orleans. It just seems far too fortunate for a Philly sports team's luck to go that far. Although we've been a bit more charmed (yes, charmed. Am I running out of synonyms for "fortunate"? yes, yes I am) with the Birds over the past couple of years - it's still Philadelphia. Just look at the Sixers (thrown to the wolves, and then some), the Flyers (what the hell happened?!?!), and yeah - even the Phillies (admit it, disappointment is their forte, Ryan Howard or not).
So yeah, we're sure to lose next week barring an unforeseen visit from God and the thirteen apostles. But it's been fun while it lasted, aside from the drunks I've had to deal with whom drown themselves in a torrent of beer and alcohol right next door at the bar; that's never fun. Anyway, here's to hoping Koy Detmer once again dawns his superman tee-shirt in pre-game warm-ups and shows the world (and Tony Romo) that he's the best damned ball holder in the business. Get 'em KOY~!
