Sad to hear of Bernie Parent’s passing at age 80. One of my first sports heroes. There was no one bigger here in those Stanley Cup years.

Well done, USA. Way to show up. Satisfying morning scrolling through pics of the big crowds. Great turnout in Phila, and West Chester rocked!
Let’s keep it going.

Horrifying.
I’m sure there will be swift condemnations from across the political spectrum, and a full investigation from the DOJ.
There will be…right?

Last night at about 2AM, my family and I woke up to bangs on the door from the Pennsylvania State Police after an arsonist set fire to the Governor’s Residence in Harrisburg.

Game day! My goal is to make it to 6:30 without reading, seeing, or hearing anything about the game. I don’t need multiple hours of hype. I’ll keep busy, then sit down at gametime and live or die with my boys.
C’mon Eagles! 🦅

Beautiful thread. I want to believe this. 👇
I am annoyingly, fatally optimistic about our futures. It's not that I don't know HOW bad things are or that I'm in a position of privilege to where I'm not impacted. It's not that I'm not afraid or angry or that I don't hurt.
It's that I'm too observant and I see everything, the good and the bad.

My blood pressure is about back to normal.
Saquon is a monster, and the turnovers were key. Also, I love snow games! ❄️
NFC championship game next Sun at home.

Tough physical game. Nice to see them gut it out. Forcing turnovers was huge.
Saquon sliding down when he could have taken it to the house…wow.
On to the Divisional Round.

Dammit Eagles. Painful game to watch. So sloppy…dropped passes, so many penalties. Credit to the Commanders, they made the plays when they had to. But yikes…
Big question now is how long will Hurts be out?
