WHY EAGLES WHY
(Sung to the tune of The Eagles Fight Song)

Why Eagles why, can't you win the NFC ?
Why Eagles why, have you lost now 1-2-3 ?
They score high and you score low,
Now we're crying in the snow.
Why Eagles why, do you cause us misery ?
M-I-S-E-R-Y - MISERY

(anonymous - heard on WIP Radio)


I'm not going to over analyze this game.  We all saw the same thing.
There is plenty of blame to go around.  The Eagles were never
really out of this game and several of seven dropped passes could
have changed the outcome.  I regret that Coach Andy didn't have
a "Plan B" and make some adjustments at half time.  He continued
to rely on WR's Pinkston and Thrash to make some plays and
his faith in those guys was not rewarded.

I really thought the Eagles would destroy Carolina, and to say
that I'm disappointed is an understatement.  I felt physically
ill over last year's debacle, and it changed me.  It hardened me,
and it didn't hurt as bad this time around.  Many fans, like
#1 Eagles fan Denny B, felt worse this time.  I feel really
bad for those fans.  I can only imagine how bad they must feel.

Nevertheless, the Eagles 12 - 4 regular season record was nothing
short of remarkable.  The Eagles season was an emotional
roller coaster and was very entertaining.  It will be an
interesting off season and I fully expect the Eagles will
get to the Championship again.
