Ah well, Detmer's still not 100% apparently so the great unbeaten one gets the nod against Washington according to the Eagles website.

Detmer will be holding kicks and be stripped as the back-up if needed.

Starting to feel much more apprehensive about this game now. Not cos I've got anyting against Feeley, just that there almost seems to be a sense that we did the hard part last week against Seattle and this game should be a breeze. Seems like whenever you start expecting the Eagles to win, something bad happens. And if it does, we won't even get the consellation of booing Trotter dammit.

ramsey has the nod against philly

remember, the visiting team has won the meeting over the last 4 or 5 years....go skins!



DDP: Well, there's this little passage I got memorized, Diamond Dallas 25:17. Sort of fits this occasion:

"The path of the bookerman is beset on all sides by the inequities of the talented, and the tyranny of workrate freaks. Blessed is he, who in the name of tradition and sports entertainment carries the stiffs through the matches of Nitro, for he is truly the workrate's keeper, and the finder of lost quality. And I will lay the smack down upon thee with great vengeance and furious roid rage those who attempt to outwrestle and expose my brothers. And you will know my name as the Bookerman, when I lay my catchphrase upon thee!"

DDP & Kevin: *BANG!* *BANG!* *BANG!* *BANG!* *BANG!* *BANG!* *BANG!* *BANG!* *BANG!* *BANG!* *BANG!* *BANG!*

-From MrJF's Pulp Bookerman

As an Eagle fans I am also nervous. When was the last time the Eagles were in a position like this? After all frustration over the years we are waiting for something bad to happen. Oh wait, it has happened, we kept rolling, and we are waiting for the other shoe to drop. Hold on, it did drop and we still won. But I still can't shake that nervous feeling.



From the infamous Wrestleline SS interview:

DTD: If you were to make changes in WCW, if you were in charge and not Ric Flair, what would they be?

SS: I'd get rid of all the old guys, and push the talent that has waited to get the push. The things they are doing, it's back in the 1980s. It's just bad, man. Flair doesn't even deserve to be on the show. You've got to get rid of all the old guys. Like what Vince did, they started pushing guys. Nobody knew who The Rock was 2 years ago. He made The Rock. Now The Rock just did Saturday Night Live. You've got to start with the young talent, talent people can relate to. Who are we trying to relate to if we've got a 50 year old man out there? Are we trying to relate, so a 50 year people and above will go out and buy a f*cking little toy? That ain't gonna happen. It's a f*cking joke.

Does it remind you of any show in particular?

Guys, this is the last (regular season) game at the Vet! Do you think they'll embarass themselves in front of all the old alumni? Now, the fans on the other hand...

Well my cousin (who is a season ticket holder) wants to rip out the goalposts, if they make it to the Super Bowl, and parade it up Broad Street to Love Park where it would be left.

That is something I want to see on ESPN.

Thank you Mr. Feely for helping to bring a division title to Philadelphia. Mr. Detmer, homefield advantage on line one...

Hey thats a point. Feeley's 3-0 now. If you're Andy Reid do youdrop him to make way for Detmer or keep going with whats been working? Either way if we lose in Dallas he's gonna have some tough questions to answer. But then if we win (and we should) he'll be a hero. Ah the fickle nature of sport

Yeah, whether he looks like a genius or an idiot has nothing to do with who he picks. It has to do with whether the team wins or not.

Meanwhile, we Packer fans are just waiting for either Philly or Tampa Bay to drop a game. In no particular order, Go Pittsburgh, Dallas, NY Giants, Chicago (did I just say that???).

Question asked and answered. The Eagles are starting with touchy-Feeley on Saturday to give Detmer another week to recover.

Feeley's in until he either loses, or Detmer's healthy enough to be the better alternative. Either way, who do you think is going to be the #2 next year?

Wasn't McNabb only supposed to be out for two months? If Philly gets a first-round bye, won't he be back?

Yeah, McNabb was meant to be out for 6-8 weeks meaning Giants game at the earliest, 2nd round of the plaoffs at the latest.

Even if Feeley throws for 500yards in his next 2 games and rushes for another 100 we can safely assume he aint keeping Donovan out the team.

From what I heard when McNabb went down, they said "out for the regular season," so you have to plan like he's going to be back for the first round. Honestly, unless he's in a body cast, he's playing in that game.

Yes, I agree. If McNabb is cleared to play, he will definitely play.

The situation reminds me of the 1991 Dallas Cowboys. Troy Aikman got hurt in the 1st Half of the game that the Cowboys beat the 11-0 Washington Redskins at RFK to end the Skins hopes for an undefeated season. Steve Beurlein stepped in at QB and won that game vs. Washington and went 5-0 in his next 5 games as starter, including a playoff win against the Bears at Soldier Field. Aikman was healed and cleared to play before the 2nd round game against the Lions in Detroit but, they stuck with Beurlein and the Cowboys were destroyed by the Lions that day. By the time Aikman finally came in the game was already out of reach.

But, hey, the Cowboys went on to win 3 of the next 4 Super Bowls so, it can be chalked up as a learning experience.

Koy's contract is up at the end of the year and Feeley has one year remaining on his.

But Koy is David Akers holder so read into that how you will.

Hey, if they learned anything from the kicking meltdown the Giants had that one game (aka, the Tom Rouen Era) they'll keep Detmer on the team. Maybe trade Feeley to fill a need?

Agreed. Although if he DOES punish them, I hope he makes them start Benson :-)
