It pains me greatly to say this, Go Eagles! Now, I'm going to take a shower.

E-L-G-S-E-S. EAGLES!

On Big Ten Plus today Malik Amine made a comment about routing for the Bills because it'll reduce Trailer Swift attention.

He's really an insightful guy, knows an annoying Trollip when he sees one.

Relax. Be hopeful. A Cowboy fan who bleeds Steeler Black and Gold has to know how to be hopelessly ☺️ hopeful.

I'm the biggest Eagle fan next Sunday. Living in the midwest with these obnoxious Chief fans is nauseating.

I have always like Andy Reid, but I will be rooting for the Eagles also. Barkley is a beast.

His reactions remind me a bit of Harbaugh.

I CANNOT believe the journey of life and circumstances that led me to defend Jim Harbaugh in any context or situation, but Harbaugh has more class in his pinkie than both Brands brothers combined.

And I say that knowing full well Harbaugh hasn’t a whole lot of class.

Harbaugh has lots of class. Most of it low.

Shoot, try being surrounded by over the top obnoxious 49er fans....at least they loose in the super bowl as of late!!

Yes but. The twins don't pick their noses in public.

This does not get old.

There should be added drama to how many finalists and champs PSU will have.
Additional drama will be if PSU sets the record for most points scored with the fewest non finalist AAs.
I am enjoying my team and their historical dominance run. That and the fact the Dallas Cowboys sucked again this year.

We (IGLSES fans) need to find a way to keep Jerry Jones alive and in charge of that team forever. He is gold, jerry. Gold!

Jerry Jones is doing his best to make Dan Snyder look like a competent owner by comparison. He'll never get there of course, but not for lack of effort.

I think a closer comparison is Al Davis. Jones does have 3 Super Bowl rings after all. But he's well beyond his expiration date just like Davis was running the Raiders into the ground.

Al Davis works too, though it's been a long time and my memory was an owner who acted erratically but aggressively toward (theoretically) winning. Also an owner who (like Jones) acted like GM and was bad at it.

To me, the Jones/Snyder comparison works because (1) Jones' needless public antagonism of players up for contract extensions (Prescott, Lamb, Parsons, etc.); (2) multiple comfortable/controllable coaching decisions as opposed to trying to hire the best options; (3) stadium issues; (4) hostile work environment/harassment of the staff and cheerleaders at least.

Come to think of it, some of those apply to Davis as well ... though unlike Jones and Snyder, he wasn't responsible for the Oakland stadium issues.

Girls Gymnastics.......the worst.

What?

 

[Chickenman Testa]

What?

Who is this Livvy Dunne chick? She’s hideous!!!

 

[Pennstate1985]

Her? I agree. Hideous.

 

[District four]

Her? I agree. Hideous.

College gymnastics ****ing rocks man

 

[Ruby Tues]

Her? I agree. Hideous.

 

[ccdiver]

I’m past drooling over college co-eds, but I do want everyone labeling Livvy Dunne as “hideous” to trot out pictures of everyone you ever dated, and the rest of us will try to figure out a descriptive word worse than ‘hideous.’

OK. Average. 🤣

What the heck. Wrestling is over for the week and we have a big Penn State star playing today on his birthday.

WE ARE. …. !!!!!!

Eagles getting some B10 officiating on the OPI penalty on their 1st drive.

Brown flagged for 15-Yard Short CB.

 

[AgSurfer]

Apparently today is Ono’s birthday.

And Saquon Barkley too. Wonder if they know about each other.

 

[PSUbluTX]

And Saquon Barkley too. Wonder if they know about each other.

In an obvious nod to our wrestling team, looks like Saquon is trying to ensure Philly matches a Penn State dual match score today.

Chiefs have been keeping his yards low but I expected it. You can be sure their defense spent a lot of time studying videos.

 

[dbldoofus]

Fly, Eagles, Fly
On the road to victory
Fight, Fight, Fight
Fight, Eagles, Fight
Score a touchdown 1-2-3
1-2-3
Hit ‘em low
Hit ‘em high
And watch our Eagles fight



Fly Eagles Fly
On the road to victory

E-A-G-L-E-S!
Eagles!

If the lyrics are wrong, so is the internet.

Well, yeah. I am happy my Iggles won. I am more happy for our Saquon.

In a comment that went over a lot of peoples heads, Tom Brady said: "Kevin Hart's here? How did the camera ever find Kevin Hart?"

Haha! If you recall, in Superb Owl LII, Hart tried to get on the dais with the team. He was denied. it was f'in funny.


(Yes. I am drinking. VDR Red wine from California. So apologies if I insult anyone.
I am socially awkward and alcohol makes me socialable and lowers my politeness).

Good to see a PA team win again and really good to see a PSU star be a big part of the winning team!

WE ARE ….. !!!!!!!

Play of the game was a former Hawkeye with the Pick 6.

He is a Pa guy now.
Also Jahan Dotson! Another Alum with a big start to set the tone.

#WEARE.

Great play for sure! 👍

But don’t forget that he had to move to PA to learn how to make a play like that! 😎

 

[dbldoofus]

Good night, HVI.
I am almost 60 and this is only the 2nd time in my lifetime the IGGLES have a Superb Owl win.

Makes me appreciate our wrestling team even more.

 

[HikeNatParks]

As a one-time avid Steeler fan soured by a decade of team mismanagement, I now credit the Eagles with 2 of my most satisfying SB results: Backup QB Foles felling the mighty Tom Brady, and, now, Alabama-shunned Hurts absolutely destroying the NFL’s precious and protected diva, Mahomes.

 

[El-Jefe]

Grandmaster level troll job.

 

[Sportfan2017]

What?

You do know that this was in reference to sports that force weight loss on athletes?.....in this case young female gymnasts. It was a serious and pervasive problem. On the lighter side......that Livvy Dunne is hard to look at........or some version of those words

 

[golfer1922]

Late to the comment party for this one……….Jerry Jones = TnT

 

[Conewago]

Chiefs game plan was comically dumb. Not that I'm complaining, I wanted Philly to win. But here you have a defense that doesn't have to blitz and a QB who's always been better on the move

So maybe roll the pocket instead of making him play like a pure pocket passer behind an ol getting destroyed?

Eagles were the better team all year and were almost certainly going to win anyway but that level of blowout was all on Reid.
