I'm a New England Patriots fan, and was disappointed when they were defeated by the Eagles....

[George II]

...but as of today I am a STRONG fan of the Philadelphia Eagles!!!

1. A heck of a game

A strip sack being the difference. When you beat the Patriots, you beat the best (almost like the 1950s NY Yankees or the 1960s Boston Celtics).

7. As a kid I grew up as the only Yankees fan in a Massachusetts family of Red Sox fans.....:)

Those were great teams...Mantle, Maris, Berra, Skowron, Richardson, Reese, Boyer, Lopez, Howard, Ford......Casey managing.
They also had some good relief pitching, which really helped Ford.

9. Reese?

10. Pee Wee was still playing in the early 50's

[rsdsharp]

16. Yes, but all the others you named were Yankees. Reese was a Dodger.

Rizzuto, followed by Kubek were the Yankee shortstops.

18. sorry, you are correct. It was Kubek....:)

11. I know the feeling

I grew up in the 1970s in So Cal as a Cincinnati Reds fan (my family was from Huntington, WV). I only went to one Dodgers game during that time (they played the Reds), and it was an unpleasant experience.

12. Ha! I always hated the Big Red Machine, but they were one of the best of all time.

13. Nothing like the Yankees

but yes I loved Johnny Bench. Only broke through twice in World Series. I still resent them having the best season record and being denied a shot at the playoffs in 1981 because of the strike (part of it was they could have tied the first half if they had played the same number of games).

2. We Philadelphians thank you!!!!

6. We're All Eagles' FANS!

[bluedigger]

3. Pats fan here, as well.

Philly's a great fcking' town.

4. I did recommend this post...

... in spite of you admitting in public that you are a Pats fan.

5. They should go kneel in front of the White House

[dameatball]

8. Damn! That would be great. That could have been a PR disaster for Trump.

But I suppose it would not help with total team chemistry, so just not going seems the best path.

[George II]

15. Better yet, kneel in front of the Liberty Bell!

[yallerdawg]

14. At least for a day...

THIS is "America's Team!"

[blm]

17. We are ALL Philly Eagles fans today!

19. This Packer fan says: Go Eagles!

It strikes me, any NFL team or player that shows up to worship Trump.....well, it's a physical game. If the Packers don't make the SB, I will pull for the Eagles

I reckon the only teams that might show up over his term are the Cowboys, the Redskins or the Patriots. Maybe

If I was the Eagles kicker who wanted to go worship Trump, well good thing kickers are loners on an NFL team....but the minute he misses a kick, well....it's a team sport.
