Eagles fans sure seem eager to spend a lot of money to go to Jacksonville and watch their team lose…Read More
Okay, here’s what we’re going to do. We’re going to forget the last three days ever happened. We’re going to chalk it up to the strange delerium that comes with catching a cold and eating bad eggs. Then we’re going to get back to looking at what’s happening down in Jacksonville. As the placards on […]Read More
Neither will anyone else in the foreseeable future.
