Halloween With It was Halloween on Tuesday, and you know what that means:
candy, candy, candy! With no opponent to scout this week, we here at The
Eagle Report put on our best Vince Papale costumes, grabbed the biggest bags
we could find, and walked down |

Donovan McNabb:
M&Ms Everyone loves M&Ms, but no matter how many you eat, you either end up unsatisfied, or you eat too many and they come out looking like Chunky Soup. |

William Thomas and
Jon Runyan: Dum Dums These usually dependable vets can’t seem to go a week without a couple rookie-type penalties. |
|
|
Brian Westbrook:
Blow Pops Not to be outdone in the lollipop category, there are very few body parts with more blowing or popping experience than Westbrook’s knee. |
|
|
Brian Dawkins:
Jawbreakers When we rang his doorbell, Dawk jumped out from behind a bush and made a nice open-field tackle that made me drop my bag. Then he pumped up the crowd and gave us candy. |
|
|
Jevon Kearse:
Crunch Remember when the Freak was healthy and we used to hear this sound? |
|
|
Marty Mornhinweg:
Airheads We all know the pass-first mentality doesn’t always work, but it takes a real Airhead to not figure this out. |
|
|
Jeremiah Trotter:
Hot Tamales Whenever Trott talks, he sounds like he’s in mild pain or panic, as if he ate too many of these red hots at once and couldn’t find anything to wash them down with. See A.J. Feeley. |
|
|
Donte Stallworth:
Paydays While he may not be taking many big plays to the bank, rest assured that the week 1 sensation is still getting a check each and every week. |

Michael Lewis and
Joselio Hanson: Milk Duds See our Studs and Duds pages, weeks 1-8. |
|
|
Jeremy Bloom:
Mounds Almost like the mounds of snow he used to almost win Olympic medals on before he almost played in the NFL. |
|
|
Dhani Jones: Nerds Nerds are one of the choice treats given out on Halloween, but nerds aren’t usually great football players. |

Darren Howard and
Brodrick Bunkley: Dubble Bubble I think they may have stepped in some of this last week and got stuck. And by last week, I mean on a bi-weekly basis. |
|
|
Lito Sheppard: 102
Grand I’ve never heard of this candy bar before, but upon closer inspection it looks like Lito just took a sharpie to some 100 Grands and changed the last 0 to a 2 to commemorate his touchdown. |
|
|
A.J. Feeley:
Aquafina Philly’s favorite backup is so used to handing out water, he was surprised to learn that he wasn’t at an Eagles game on Tuesday night. Would someone send him to Trott’s Spot please? |
|
|
Trent Cole:
Reese’s Cups These Halloween staples are always one of the first items gone from my trick-or-treat bag. Reese’s Cups are awesome, except that we almost never see them in packages of two or three, and they are often undersized. |
|
|
Jim Johnson:
Assorted popcorn Not always sure what you’re going to get here. Will it be the delicious caramel popcorn that gets the job done, that kind of weird but still good cheddar popcorn, or the crappy and kind of stale plain popcorn? |

Reggie Brown, Greg
Lewis, and Hank Baskett: 3 Musketeers A candy bar with some good things to offer, but it lacks the rich caramel of a Milky Way or the crunchy peanuts of Snickers. We half expected to get Butterfingers from this house, but that would be too easy. |

Andy Reid: Healthy
Choice granola bars Everyone always had that guy in their neighborhood who was a dentist or something like that and decided to give out healthy snacks that stayed at the bottom of your bag until Thanksgiving. Halloween is about getting candy, and this guy completely missed the point. |
