    Soooooo. This weekend after a few beers I accepted the fact that I will be bringing a daughter into a world where Trump is president and the Eagles are super bowl champs.  Rock bottom.  The world can only go up from there.

    Beers? Might want to go right to whiskey, Cliff. Possibly even meth or PCP.

    Thanks and yeah, perhaps that was one of the motivations.

    I was laughing last night while reading some of the recaps and thinking about the NFC Playoffs.

    Division Winners would appear to be:
    Rams
    Vikings
    Saints
    Eagles

    Wild Cards?
    I'm going Carolina is they win tonight & Shit-attle, although I hope it is someone else.
    Dallas is toast, I think. 
    Lions or Falcons, maybe?

    Anyway....
    Who is going to beat the Birds? 
    Vikings or Rams?
    :lol:
    Holy crap.
    I guess if the Vikes come back and get Bridgewater grooving...but I watched enough Goff over the years to discount that.  Especially if Eagles get home field.

    I think you are looking at a choke job if the team stays healthy to not make it to the SB.  Then you have to deal with the Patriots.
    I guess Shittsburgh or Chefs, or even the Jaguars....but I think we have a Pats/Eagles collision course.

    Anything but Jags Rams. 


    Hey, at least Gump is looking out for LaVar Ball's kid over in China.  (Let those fucking morons deal with whatever the local laws are.  Shoplifting from 3 different stores like they are 12)  Very worthy of presidential involvement.
    The love he receives is the love that is saved

    Oh yeah....LaVar Dipshit pulled his high school kid out for home schooling and let him have a Lamborghini.

    Get your own dipshit kid back from China, asswipe.

    The only thing the Eagles gotta worry about is peaking too early and a team getting hot going into the playoffs.  This time of year on both of the Giants runs, they were average at best.  It's a team that gets hot that could upset the Eagles, but yeah...

    There is just sooo much season left - I'll probably age another two decades between now and the Super Bowl.

    I'll say again - the Saints and Rams are the only teams that worry me. Or just any incredibly mediocre team can get hot at the right team and not represent the best team in a season, but be the best team at the right point of a season.

    Yeah. It's amazing to me how so many people are overlooking those teams around here. Goff looks real good and just because he's not quite as good as Wentz, nobody wants to give him any credit.


    Seattle too....they always play their best football down the stretch.

    I really don't know why people are overlooking New Orleans - it's like no one wants to acknowledge that their defense isn't half bad after being downright terrible for a long time. And they've got plenty of weapons on offense, and a decent O-line...... oh, and a hall of fame quarterback...

    Minnesota is decent team but I think they're ultimately rudder-less without a solid QB. And Bridgewater isn't anything great.

    Seattle, you're right, play well at the right time, but I think that defense is going to snap this year and Duane Brown isn't going to solve their running problems.

    More than anything, just get home field advantage. I definitely do not want to play on the road in Seattle or New Orleans (both for their artificially enhanced crowd noise that is deafening).

    My neighbor's son is on the coaching staff of the Saints.  Dude is fired up, spoke to him on Saturday.

    So many of these top NFC teams play each other so nothing will be sewn up for anyone for a while
    Alright, alright, alright!

    Seattle's D is pretty banged up so i'm not too worried about them, but yeah The Saints and the Rams are teams i would be worried about the most.

    04 was expected. Winning is always fun. I'll let you know if this year is more fun at the end of it.

    Well thus far was the question.

    To me this season is a different kind of fun, a notch below '04.


    '04 was expected, but I think the huge personalities on that team, to me, made it more fun. From 20,000 people up on Lehigh to "TO TO TO TO" chants through out the year to blowing out Dallas on Monday night with that Donovan scramble and bomb. That was as fun as a football season can get....plus the pent up frustration of the all the championship game losses that we wanted to avenge going into that year added to the whole thing for me.


    This is close though.

    ooooh that is tough, if the eagles can get far in the playoffs i would have to say this year, but as of right now probably slight edge to the '04 team.
