Woe is us, it's true. Our third-stringers hung us out to dry, in the first preseason game, no less. Whatever shall we do? We're ruined! Ruined, I say!!! Oh, the shame......
Hey, wait just a minute! Now I remember! I saw McNabb, Westbrook, the first-string O and D lines dominating before being pulled early.
🙄
But, it's hard to get all excited about a loss.

It's preseason! The first unit - the one that counts, the one that will actually be playing - marched right down the field against another team's first-line defense.
Don't get me wrong, I have strong ties to the Philadelphia area. I'm not some Eagle hater. I just don't think this is going to be a great year.

I'm excited about my Eagles and you'd better believe it. McNabb was sharp and smiling again, Westy was running hard and moving the pile, our new end Darren Howard blew Robert Gallery away to sink his talons into Aaron Brooks.
Best of all, no frickin' punk Owens!!!!
Oh yeah, Eagles are going to surprise. Bet on it.

But, I wouldn't bet on it.
