Fisheye for the Philadelphia Eagles Football Guy

Well the last ten days have been breathtaking to say the least.  

As a diehard fan, I live and breathe eagles football.  

With the NFL Sunday Ticket I have not missed an Eagles game since 1994.  

I have seen the eagle lose live in Tampa Bay and Jacksonville (McNabb puked), win in Miami, had season tickets in the 70s at the Vet, visited the Linc, but no live games yet :(.  

I have collected lots of memorabilia over the years and the 4th bedroom is painted white and midnight green.  

My jersey collection includes a McNabb in White, a Dawkins in black, a green Jackson and Foles (gasp, a Christmas present 2014) and a McCoy, all gone.  

Colin Cowherd summed it up, "Sorry Philadelphia fans. They got rid of a couple of guys whose jerseys you owned. You’re 46. Stop wearing jerseys meatball. That’s a you problem.”  

Well in the spirit of same, here are some fisheye shots of the memorabilia....


My Chuck Bednarik autographed poster.  
Taken 9 days before I was born, with the memorable quote, "This f**king game is over!’”



My AJ Feeley autographed picture, sent to the Dolphins for a 
2nd round pick (Reggie Brown).  They was fleeced!



Eight great Eagles in Cards!
Ron Jaworski; Wilbur Montgomery, Bill Bergey; Randall Cunningham
Brian Dawkins; Donovan McNabb, Chuck Benarik and Harold Carmichael

Despite one year in San Fran, he retired as an Eagle in 2012

Nick Foles, never worn....., not even to church on Sunday
