Isnt that the guy who talked smack about St Louis a few years back and then looked like an idiot when they got thier asses handed to them here at the TWA Dome?
Nothing would make me happier than an Eagle rout at the Linc. Brett Favre's storybook tale should have been stomped into the ground last week... time for the Iggles to finish the job.
No...let Tom Brady do it. He'll take out the "co-MVPs" in the divisional and championship games, and then pound the living snot out of Favre. The 2001-2002 Patriots were a team of destiny; these Packers are a lucky team getting called a team of destiny because ESPN wants another 01-02 Pats.

Can you at least acknowledge the possibility that they're....well....GOOD? The Packers do have the longest current win streak, you know - just maybe, part of it is they're making their own luck?

Longest win steak in the NFC you mean. Is GB a good team? I guess when you count that there are not many good teams in the NFC. But I would rate at least 3 AFC teams better than them maybe 4.
This is _so_ not what any remaining Eagles fans needed to see right now. Green Bay already has the whole Hollywood Destiny/Hand of God thing going to begin with, and adding inflammatory material like this might as well just be handing them the game...
Not like McNabb wasn't going to close out his season with a last-play-of-his-season INT for the 3rd year in a row anyway.
Philly's made quite a run themselves, but they're plagued by a couple of key injuries at the moment. The Pack's loss in the regular season can be attributed to Favre's banged-up thumb, but now the man's fresh and Ahman Green's on a major hot streak.
Prediction: This guy looks like a moron when Green Bay beats Philly in a close game. Green Bay moves on...
...and gets crushed by St. Louis
Admit it. You laughed too when you found out Brock was feuding with Sparky Plugg.
Good lord the mans just having a laugh. Some of its actually pretty funny, and by the looks of the response from Green Bay, they appreciate that.
If someone says "your towns dull" and you retort "but we have ICE FISHING" the chances are that your tongue is firmly in cheek.
Its banter before a big game, its what makes sports great.
As for the game itself, if we can take Green out of the equation by getting a couple of scores ahead early on then we should be fine.
Even if we can't then as long as we can at least contain the guy with run blitzes then our secondary should be good enough to take Driver et al man for man.
We really should have beaten them by a whole lot more in the regular season and would have done if our receivers would just stop dropping the bloomin ball.
I'd take the Eagles to win by 4 but I'd be a whole lot more confident if Emmons was there.
Much ado about nothing...it's one of the second tier columnists of the second tier paper in Philly poking fun at Green Bay. If Bill Conlin or Stephen Smith had written it, it might actually have been worth paying attention to.
Plus, it goes without saying that if the Packers need this to motivate them, well then, they have other problems.
And it's nice to see that people think the Eagles are just going to roll over and die because of Ahman Green and a bunch of injuries. Hell, they have a whole defensive front on IR, and guess what, they still finished 12-4, and unless I'm mistaken, they were still in the top ten in points allowed by the defense.
Power flows to the one who knows how -- desire alone is not enough.
According to NFL.com columnist Pat Kirwan, the defensive set that Ed Donatell called to beat the Seahawks is named after ME!
"I coached with Packers defensive coordinator Ed Donatell and we had the "Thriller" blitz in our game plan when we coached for the Jets. We used it to sack Warren Moon twice in a playoff game. When I saw the Packers in overtime slide the outside backers close to the line of scrimmage with soft man coverage behind it, I knew Ed had called the "Thriller." This time, it didn't create the sacks we got back in the Houston game, but Ed's players did one better -- picked off the pass and scored to win. "Thriller" lives on!"
There ya go, James F'n X. :-)
Star wipe, and...we're out. Thrillin' ain't easy.

Seriously, I'd take YANKEES fans over Packer fans every day of the week, twice on Sundays. At least the Yankees fans have something else to watch during the offseason. :)
