New Year’s 2008 Celebration

Wade Phillips

Silly

Any of you poor wretches stuck at work today like me?  No matter, I’ll avoid any semblence productivity as best I can.

Hey, between the Eagles’ miracle and New Year’s, it’s undeniably a week for celebrating, right?

So let’s do something fun, vote for your favorite pic of Hank Baskett’s fiance, Kendra Wilkinson that we posted this year!

Vikings Coverage

If you’re trying to find any information possible about the Eagles’ wild-card opponent, try these spots:

The status of Pat Williams is still up in the air.  Apparently he was to be examined yesterday.  It may be simply athlete bravado, but he says he’ll be out there on Sunday.

Probably worth reminding everyone that Donovan really likes to play in domes.

Fantastic Monday

I know it’s juvenile, but I loved every second of this.  The Clemons’ stiff-arm is something I can watch endlessly.

On that Sheldon Brown pick Stew Bradley absolutely destroys Jason Whitten.  Beautiful.

Not Bad, Samberg

I’m not sure if this one is as good as “Dick in a Box“, but I still laughed.  At least SNL has something going for it now.

Big Jon Runyan

Can we get Runyan and Sheldon Brown a radio show together when their careers are over?

“You’ve gotta make the first one to make the second one. It just didn’t happen,” Runyan continued. “The biggest issue is, you’ve got to catch the ball. That’s been the story most of the year, and it’s popped up again. That’s been the story around here for many years.”

These guys are the anti-Donovan.  The anti-Brady.  Their positions allow them to call it like they see it, and damn do they do it pretty eloquently.

They’re So Creative

Yep, newspapers are full of invaluable wisdom and information that society is sure doing to miss when they’re gone.  We’re all doomed.

Angry, Depressed, or Apathetic

I wouldn’t blame any Eagles fan for feeling any one of those emotions.

All things considered, wasn’t today – more than anything – just typical?

Another Big Test for Gocong

8 receptions.  109 yards.  1 TD.

That was Chris Cooley’s line from the October 5 game at the Linc.  Cooley tore up the Eagles, and specifically Chris Gocong.

Gocong, as we know, is an aggressive player who is at his best jumping into a running lane, sprinting into the backfield, or tracking down a runner from across the field.

But his coverage ability, or lackof, has really hurt the Eagles this year on a number of occasions.   This is a big game for him.  Has he gotten better this year picking up on play action?  Gocong is a smart guy, and I hope he’s spending a lot of time this week in the film room studying what Cooley did to him in Week 5.
