Eagles_Giants

Here we go, it's the last game of the season! The giants at home should be an easy home victory. Hurts back at QB (please don't get hurt!), the Giants have nothing to play for, Dallas in the shadows, what could go wrong? Do I go to the dark side? My worst-case scenario is the Eagles losing, Hurts getting injured, and the Cowboys clinching the divis...

Hi Philly! Getting Any Sleep?

Phillies Rally in Ninth

What a weekend! Starting Friday afternoon, early evening, I'm feeling like a dark cloud is descending on Philadelphia fans. Here we head into the top of the ninth with absolutely no offense. This supposed power lineup had shown no life up until this point. As I'm watching, I'm thinking to myself, "well, will this series even get to game 3." An...

Another Season - Another Heartbreak?

prediction

Ok, today we begin another year of hope and dreams. What will this season bring? Can I see a division title? Making it to the NFC championship? Super Bowl? A part of me feels that this is the best-constructed team on both sides of the ball in years, if not all time.  Where do I worry the most? First, it starts with my concern with Jalen Hurts....

How 'Bout Those Cowboys!

After watching the Pats and Eagles go down so easily, my one last hope was a loss by the Cowboys. It was time to get out the rosary beads, light a candle, rub a rabbit's foot...whatever I could to tempt the football gods to come down hard on the Cowboys. If I had to end the weekend with a Cowboy win I'd be disgusted with a lost weekend. I'm debatin...

Eagles Go Down With A Whimper

After finishing off the season going 9-7, the Eagles went into the playoffs without many expectations from the football world.   Now realistically I knew that was way over their heads. If you look at their end-of-the-season schedule and record, you had to know it wasn't very impressive. The closest you could say was a good victory was the...

Confessions of a Philly Fan - Don't Pass Judgement

It was about 10 years ago when I came up with the idea of creating a website related to Philadelphia sports. I registered the name, phillysportsguy.com, but let it linger up until now. I kept telling myself, I was going to get started and then would put it off. Finally, a few weeks ago I began to build it on my computer and when I had made enough p...

Wha, Wha Wentz Whipped by Jags

I have to say in all honesty, I never was on the Wentz Wagon.  There was just something about him that didn't sit right with me. When I heard him speak, for some reason my B.S. detector would go off. I go back a few years ago when he got injured and was replaced by Foles. What seemed like the Birds not having receivers to throw to, Foles was f...

How Are You Feeling? Big Bad Cowboys!

I'm getting ready to watch the game last night. I spent earlier time earlier in the day watching Villanova pour it on in the second half to defeat Depaul, 79-64. It ended in time to switch over to the Chiefs/Broncos game. I have to say, I'm definitely not a Chiefs fan. I used to like them until Andy Reid became the coach. Sorry, still too many resi...

Why I Can't Stand The Cowboys

As any true Eagles fan, you probably guess my feelings about the Cowboys. Especially on days like today when they will face off in Philly tonight. There is a lot of back and forth about tonight's game. Rest the starters? Don't lose momentum, keep starters going? If it was any other team I would say rest the starters but at least go with the starter...

Where It All Began

As a kid, who grew up in South Jersey, I started my early life becoming a big sports fan. I was in first grade when I first started to get interested in sports. My first love was baseball. A group of friends (Dicky, Joey, Georgie, and myself) became baseball cards and coins fanatics. Part of our time would be spent cashing in soda bottles and whate...
