There is so much wrong with what New Jersey Assemblyman and Jersey City cop Charles Mainor tweeted while watching the Giants-Packers game Sunday night: “We are not going to just lay down, we come to play,” the message read. “Who the hell do you think we are the DALLAS COWGIRLS OR THOSE GAYBIRDS FROM PHILLY…NO WE [...]

Eagles players would not know how to deal with a gay teammate
“Which Phillies and Eagles are gay?” is the provocative, if somewhat misleading, headline on a story in Philadelphia magazine by Robert Huber. The story does not play a guessing game (though it does mention a bisexual Phillies player) but simply asks the question of Eagles players, along with some from the Flyers, about whether they [...]
DeSean Jackson calls a radio caller a ‘gay-ass faggot,’ Tweets he’s ‘standin tall’
Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeSean Jackson is the latest pro athlete to drop the F-bomb. He appeared on a cooky radio show on Eminem’s Sirius XM channel and snapped back at a caller saying he’s a “gay-ass faggot” (listen to the audio after the jump). I listen to Sirius XM all the time, and Howard [...]
Michael Vick cancels Oprah Winfrey interview
A couple days after Oprah Winfrey announced should would interview Michael Vick today, the NFL quarterback has canceled his appearance. Fox News claims it was the Philadelphia Eagles who squashed the interview, though the Eagles deny that. “After careful consideration, I will need to postpone the taping of the Oprah Winfrey interview scheduled for February [...]
Eagle player apologizes for gay vampire tweet
Todd Herremans, an offensive lineman for the Philadelphia Eagles, has apologized for tweeting about the “barrage of homosexuality” on the HBO show “True Blood.” After hearing from the Eagles management, he “deeply apologized.” Here, courtesy of Where’s Weems via Deadspin, are the tweets in question: Share on Facebook
The Eagles’ hypocrisy
For those who haven’t come across it yet, Joe In Philly has a new blog called, well, “The Joe In Philly Experience!” And as is often the case, Joe was spot-on in his reaction to Michael Vick last week, pointing out the great hypocrisy in the Eagles’ undying “everyone deserves a second chance” mantra now [...]
Michael Vick signs with Eagles
The Philadelphia Eagles have signed Michael Vick to a two-year contract. Jay Glazer of Fox says that Vick signed a one-year, $1.6 million contract with a team option for the 2010 season. I am curious as to what Eagles and other NFL fans think of this. (And I have already seen one person refer to [...]
Another sexy Eagle
Last year it was an offensive lineman (Todd Herremans). This year, the Philadelphia Daily News switched to defense, naming Philadelphia Eagles linebacker Stewart Bradley as one of its 2009 Sexy Singles. The annual feature selects single men and women, chosen from hundreds of entries, as the hottest bachelors and bachelorettes in the region. Bradley, who [...]
Cyd’s Sexy Spreads: Conference Championships
Note: Every week, I pick games against the spread on the Michael Irvin Show on ESPN Radio, and I’m putting them on our blog. What a contrast in styles between these two games this weekend. In the desert will be a cordial game between a couple teams that many expected to be watching this game [...]
Who to hate more?
Every story deserves a good villain. Alien had an 8-foot tall monster with acid for blood… The Dark Knight had a psychotic guy with a Glasgow Smile and who dressed like a clown… Titanic had Kate Winslet who wouldn’t move on that fucking door to let Leo DiCaprio on so he wouldn’t freeze to death. [...]
NFL helping Cowboys into playoffs?
Here’s the latest sports conspiracy theory, courtesy of Dallas Morning News columnist Tim Cowlishaw: the real reason the NFL moved Sunday’s Dallas Cowboys-Philadelphia Eagles game to 4:15 ET is to help the Cowboys into the playoffs. For the Eagles to still have a chance at the postseason, they need Tampa Bay to lose, and also [...]
Flex for me baby!
Alright, now that Week 16 is almost done, there are only 5 spots left in the “NFL Post-Season Tournament” (colloquially known to you and me as the Playoffs) and the NFL has moved around their schedules for Sunday the 27th. So now, you can sit and wait even longer as you develop ulcers and agonize [...]
