Recovering former journalist, museum curator, author, diehard Philadelphia Eagles fan. Husband, dad, devotee of great music and high-performance cars. Refusing to age gracefully. Opinions are my own.
In tiny little Harrisburg, NC, today, I met a guy that told me is family has had season @philadelphiaeagles.bsky.social tickets since 1935. Amazing the people you meet when you say, "Go birds."

The NFC North sent 3 teams totaling 40 wins to the playoffs. They went 0-3 with an average defeat of 15 points. That might have been a giant fraud of a division

Already looking at flights to get up to Philly for the @philadelphiaeagles.bsky.social playoff game. Got a ticket for sale? Hit me up.

Did not have been greeted in a Jacksonville parking lot by a large and clearly way-too-comfortable-around-humans raccoon on my holiday bingo card but here we are.

Pro tip: Never volunteer to cook a holiday meal in a kitchen you've never cooked in before.

What doesn't matter at all?

Sunday's loss.

It's over. Can't change it.

What does matter?

The playoffs start in 3 weeks at The Line.

For those of us who suffer from SAD, the fact that the days will now start getting longer is energizing.

And Go Birds

Eagles win 9th straight game
Ties for longest win streak in team history
Clinch playoff berth
Saquon sets team rushing record and has a shot at NFL record
Three-quarters of fan base is miserable afterwards
Most Philly thing ever.

I don't feel great about that game, but a win is a win. And last year, it would absolutely have been a loss.

A microcosm of the Eagles season: The offense is horrible for most of the first half, but somehow they're in front at halftime.

Welcome back DeVonta Smith. And go birds
December 8, 2024 at 4:25 PM
Yeah, Dan Campbell looked like a ballsy genius making all those 4th and 1 first downs.

But Green Bay's D-Line is soft. Soft.

Don't think Lions would convert that often against Jalen Carter. Jordan Davis and Milton Williams.

And I think we're going to have a chance to find out come January.

So far:

Offense sucks
Defense sucks
Special teams suck

C'mon, guys. Get it together now.

Key life hack: The best and quickest way to recover from a bad mistake is to own it and be accountable. When you make excuses and rationalizations it makes look like a fool because everyone knows you were wrong and are trying to cover your ass. #bears
