Being An Eagles Fan!<\/h2>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

<\/h4>\n

E-A-G-L-E-S\u2026\u2026EAGLES<\/span><\/h4>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

So what does it feel like to bleed midnight green? Every year of\u00a0 my life, I have been dealing with the disappointment of another football season ending, without the Eagles holding the Lombardi Trophy.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Since i was not around in 1960, (the last time the eagles won a championship), i cannot and would not stake a claim to this.\u00a0 My highest moment is a loss to the patriots in super bowl XXXIX.\u00a0 So yea, my highest moment is a defeat, Back OFF!\u00a0 Remember I am an Eagles Fan.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Being an Eagles fan<\/span> I realize we have gotten quite a reputation over the years.\u00a0 Most of it is probably deserved!\u00a0 But you cannot deny the passion our fans have for our team.\u00a0 Eagles fans are simply blue collar people who will go cheer, boo, cry, and just plain get crazy.\u00a0\u00a0 Yea REAL CRAZY<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

You need to experience the fandum first hand at the Linc, to know exactly what I\u2019m talking about.\u00a0 Just make sure you don\u2019t make the mistake of wearing another teams jersey!\u00a0 Prolly wont end well.\u00a0 Not bragging about this, just stating facts.\u00a0 Do that at your own peril!<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

So over the past 14 years(Andy Reid\u2019s Tenure) of being an eagles fan<\/strong>, I have created quite a list of things that simply drive me crazy!<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Andy Reid\u00a0 \":)\" <\/span><\/li>\n
  2. People telling me how smart Andy Reid is<\/span><\/li>\n
  3. NEVER Sticking with the Run game<\/span><\/li>\n
  4. Running Shotgun on 3rd or 4th and 1<\/span><\/li>\n
  5. Andy Reid\u2019s game management<\/span><\/li>\n
  6. Andy Reid\u2019s Timeout debacles (plural)<\/span><\/li>\n
  7. Hiring of OL coach for Def Cord<\/span><\/li>\n
  8. Wish I HAD MORE TIME TO CONTINUE<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    \u00a0<\/p>\n

    \u00a0<\/p>\n

    so yea their is a short list of some of my anger towards the eagles.\u00a0 Mainly you can see its pointing at the Head Coach.\u00a0 But i believe the definition of insanity is trying the same thing over and over again and thinking your are going to get different results!!!<\/p>\n

    Yes I just called Andy Reid insane, but he has to be based on his track record.\u00a0 When every year ends the same way, and yet you stick to the same formula as the year before.\u00a0 Then you are FU*K*NG CRAZY!<\/p>\n

    \u00a0<\/p>\n

    So as you can see from this short description, Being an Eagles Fan is no walk in the park.\u00a0 Christ, its not even a step out of bed.\u00a0 I would compare being an eagles fan to watching the movie Scarface!\u00a0 You get emotionally attached to the character, you watch him build his empire.\u00a0 Then you watch as his empire is torn apart, and he eventually is killed.\u00a0\u00a0 Now watch that Over and Over and Over again.<\/p>\n

    \u00a0<\/p>\n

    Now thats Being an Eagles Fan<\/em>!<\/h2>\n

    \u00a0<\/p>\n

    Hope you enjoyed!!!<\/p>\n

    \u00a0<\/p>\n

    Chase your dreams and find your freedom,<\/p>\n

    \u00a0
    \n\"\"\/<\/a><\/p>\n

    \u00a0<\/p>\n

    \u00a0<\/p>\n

    \u201cThe question isn\u2019t who is going to let me in, it\u2019s who is going to stop me\u201d
