Word down here (and I'm not making this up) is that Mama Portis then punched the lights out of the dork (or dorkette) who had beaned her, at which point said Mama Portis was taken to the Redskins sideline for her, and others', safety. Clinton was quite proud of Mama. A lot more interesting than pushin' Chunky Soup

Thanks Eleven24 and Compos Mentis. Perhaps Fox did bail out. I hadn't thought of that!
Cheers,

For the last 5 years, the team that the Eagles played in their last regular season game have gone on to the Superbowl that year. The Eagles last regular season opponent this year?

The Redskins.

From Richmond, VA prior to getting stuck in Jersey (yuck). Cherry Hill is right across the river from Philly (and way too close to Camden). Laughing my arse off at the locals. For the past 5-6 weeks, they've been chanting "REGGIE" after every miscue. Conventional wisdom had that the Birds wouldn't win another one after McNabb went out. Props to them for playing their asses off against a rather lackluster team last week. Joe better get 'em ready for TB - 'cause that should be a smash mouth game! :rocks:

Chanting Reggie? I'm a season ticket holder & have no idea what you're talking about.

The Eagles went 6-10 not so much because the rest of the division got that much better, but because they lost so many starters to injury. ELEVEN of the starters in the Superbowl last year were put on IR at some point this year. On top of that, Akers & Westbrook both missed time as well... and then there's T.O. There is no team in any sport that could survive losing over 50% of their starters.

Then again, the Flyers are really doing well....
