This Other Angle Of The Eagles Fan Running Into A Pillar Really Delivers [Update]
Anyone monitoring Philadelphia’s reaction to the Super Bowl-bound Eagles has presumably seen the video of the guy in the Brian Dawkins jersey running into a pillar. That instant classic of the Idiot Gets Hurt genre was shot from inside the subway train, and is now joined by a companion piece—an al...
Here’s Two And A Half Minutes Of Eagles Fans Going Crazy On The News Last Night
It’s Monday morning in Philadelphia, and the city is still here. Fans rushed to the streets after the Eagles routed the Vikings 38-7 last night. And despite some dire predictions and preemptively greased up poles, fans were apparently pretty well behaved. (The cops say there were only six Eagles-rel...
Let's See How Eagles Fans Are Dealing With This
The Eagles pulverized the Vikings, and, greased poles or no, the party spilled out of the stadium and extended seemingly the length of Broad Street. Here are some brief snapshots of Philadelphia, which we presume has canceled Monday....
Philadelphia Eagles Earn Super Bowl Trip On Back Of Superstar Nick Foles
One week after Doug Pederson game-planned his way to a defensive struggle win over the Atlanta Falcons, his Eagles routed the favored Minnesota Vikings 38-7 and earned Philadelphia its first NFC championship since 2004. ...

There Was Violence At The Eagles Tailgate
The Eagles have the late game today, which probably isn’t the best-case scenario for Philadelphia. People have been tailgating since 6 a.m. Maybe earlier. The parking lots were a sea of trash by mid-afternoon....
They’ve Greased Poles In Philadelphia In Preparation For The Eagles Game
People in Philadelphia are nervous today. It’s not just about tonight’s NFC title game against the Minnesota Vikings. They’re nervous what might happen if the Eagles actually win and advance to the Super Bowl....
It’s Been A Very Easy Week To Be An Eagles Fan In The News
Philadelphia seemed already out of Eagles stories when a week ago I read the headline “Eagles Pep Band Ready for Big Game.” Where do you go after a story on whether the four guys who play the Eagles’ fight song after touchdowns are ready for the intensity of a playoff game?...
Cops Say An Eagles Fan Punched A Police Horse After Being Ejected From The Stadium
A Philadelphia man was arrested on Saturday after police say he punched a police horse after being ejected from the Linc during the Eagles’ 15-10 win over the Falcons....
Ben Simmons And Kyle Lowry Plan To Meet In Tunnel After Ejections, Deny Any Actual Meeting
Ben Simmons and Kyle Lowry were both ejected with less than 10 seconds to go in today’s Raptors-Sixers game. At least on the court, the “incident” looked like a whole lot of nothing, but a little gesture from Simmons as the two went off made it seem like he and Lowry were going to finish their chat ...
Brett Brown Is As Perplexed By Markelle Fultz's Shot As You Are
The fog surrounding Markelle Fultz and his possibly injured shoulder and definitely broken jumper has started to lift, and the Sixers are now beginning to admit that everyone’s worst fear has come true: Markelle Fultz is healthy, but he still cannot shoot a basketball properly....
Markelle Fultz's Shoulder Is Healed But His Jumper Is Just As Busted As Ever
We’re at the point, now, where practice court videos of a close-to-healthy Markelle Fultz taking unbearably bad-looking jumpers are just sad and infuriating. What the fuck happened? Who did this? Who can I yell at, right now, about what has happened. Anyway, God, look at this:...
Atlanta Falcons Somehow Lose To Nick Foles<em></em>
In the month since losing starting quarterback and MVP candidate Carson Wentz, the Philadelphia Eagles have played a skittish backup at quarterback behind a spotty offensive line, at the exact time that their highly ranked defense began collapsing. The franchise hadn’t won a playoff game since 2009,...
The Falcons' Defense Is Finding Itself At Just The Right Time
For much of this season, it’s been difficult to take the Atlanta Falcons seriously. After a 3-0 start, they lost back-to-back home games to the Bills and Dolphins before getting thumped by the Patriots, by which time the hangover from 28-3 had reached the coffee-and-aspirin phase. Their offense, eve...
Donnie Jones Puts On A Show Before Punting
If you haven’t noticed by the ice forming in your water glasses, it’s very cold up north and out east today, and it’s messing with at least a few NFL players. One of them was Eagles punter Donnie Jones, who went out to punt while still wearing his warm-ups, then had to treat fans to a little show....
Why Does Jon Gruden Think The Philadelphia Stadiums Are "Downtown"?
Philadelphia teams have been tanking incompetently since before Sam Hinkie was alive. The 1968 Eagles started out 0-11 and looked like a lock to draft O.J. Simpson No. 1 overall. Then they won two straight to ensure that the Bills would have the top pick. In their 14th and final game that year, a yo...
