Go Philly

I have been an Eagles fan since we moved to Langehorne, PA in 1986 so it is awesome to see them doing so well this year. I have seen them in the days of Buddy Ryan, Randall Cunningham, Reggie White, Keith Jackson and Chris Carter.

I went to my first game at Veterans stadium when I was 10 years old with my dad. I had a paper route and if I sold enough subscriptions I got some free preseason tickets. My dad helped me get them and we went to the game together.

We sat clear up in the nose bleed but I didn't care because I was at the game with my dad. We watched the Pittsburg steelers and Merrill Hoge play. Later we ended up living by the the Hoges.

I still have many of their football cards and a wooden craft that I made in shop class in 7th grade. Being in Arizona I get sucked into all the Cardinal hype and like their team but it isn't the same. Next week is a big game because they are playing here and everyone I know is going to be routing for the home team. I think the Eagles are going to win but the Cardinals looked pretty good this week but I think they played their best game of the year.
