For Tebow Sake...

Over the past few months, I have heard nothing but Tebow is awful or Tebow is great.

The fact is, is that no one really knows what this kid can do. I personally, wish Tebow a great deal of success. Tebow's stats are dismal at best. His performances have been mildly entertaining. However, the kid hasn't played much at all. You can't not judge a person by a few games and say that he is the best thing ever or that he is awful and can't ever compete in this league.

So, if you look at the two sides of this argument; you see one side just saying that Tebow is great without any real accomplishments. And, the other side that just really doesn't like the people that are calling him great.

I don't believe that anyone really has an issue with Tebow…the issue is with Tebow fans.

How about we call a trues? Tebow fans shut up until the end of the season. If he does better then great…talk all you want. If he doesn't then remain silent.

Angry Birds

Angry Birds, I wish I was talking about the app.  Unfortunately, I am speaking about the Eagles.  Not the players, the fans!

For the past few weeks, I have heard nothing from Eagles fans about: how terrible Vick is, incompetent Reid is, or why the Eagles defense is awful.  Guess, what?  It's not your team that sucks.  It's you!

The Eagles fans are the absolute worst in the NFL.  Let us go back…


  • December 15, 1968, Eagles fans boo Santa Claus and then proceed to pelt him with snowballs.
  • From 1986 − 1991, Buddy Ryan was the Coach of the Eagles.  Buddy Ryan is really to blame for these terrible fans.  He built the team.  He built the fan base.  Though, Buddy Ryan is seen as one of the best coaches to coach the game.  The fans never appreciated him.  
  • On December 10, 1989, the Philadelphia Eagles Fans pelted the Dallas Cowboys team and coaches with snowballs.
  • In 1995, Randall Cunningham decided to retire from football.  He did so because not only the fans but the organization turned their backs on him and offered Rodney Pete the starting job in Philly.  Surprisingly, Pete was one of the few Quarterbacks that the Eagles fans liked and didn't boo immediately.  Cunningham later went on to lead the Minnesota Vikings to a 15-1 season only three years later.
  • In 1999, the Eagles drafted Donnovan McNabb second pick overall in the draft. He was met with a chorous of Boos on opening day. McNabb led the Eagles to four consecutive NFC East division championships between 2001-2004, five NFC Championship Games and a Super Bowl XXXIX appearance, in which the Eagles were defeated by the New England Patriots. McNabb's career was consistantly challenged by Eagles fans, no matter how well he played.
  • Oct. 11, 1999, Dallas Cowboys receiver Michael Irvin suffered a career-ending neck injury at Veterans Stadium against the Philadelphia Eagles.  While Irvin lay motionless on the ground, Eagles fan cheered.
  • Philadelphia no choice but to install a court, judge and jail inside the stadium.  A courtroom was built into the stadium where unruly fans were taken for judgment and sentencing after committing crimes at Veterans Stadium.  The penalties for the crime forced offenders to give up season tickets, pay a $400 fine and sit in jail for the rest of the game.
  • In 2004, the Eagles aquired Terrell Owens.  The Eagles fan base really embrased him.  The Eagles fans were never very happy with McNabb and when Owens began his rants against McNabb and the Management, Eagles fans cheered this on.
  • Michael Vick was picked up by the Philledephia Eagles in 2009, majority of the Eagles fans hated this move.  Vick, an ex-convict being picked up by the Eagles was not something they wanted for their team.  Vick is currently the started of the Eagles and most Eagles fans regard him as a "cry baby."


  • In 2010, Donovan McNabb was sent packing by the Eagles.  Relying on the fact, that they had two great Quarterbacks in Michael Vick and Kevin Kolb.  McNabb was never respected throughout all of his days as an Eagle.  Most of the time, McNabb was booed more than cheered.
  • In 2011, Andy Reid has compiled what was considered to be the "Dream Team."  However, after a 3 − 6 start; the Eagles fans are now calling for Reid to be dismissed.  Reid has compiled the best win total 120, winning percentage .609 and playoff victory total 10 in team history. He has captured six division titles and five trips to the NFC Championship game. Since he was hired in 1999, no other franchise has earned more divisional playoff round appearances 7. 
These are just some of the reasons as to why the Eagles fans are ruining the Eagles franchise.  I can understand booing Santa.  Hell, I can even understand cheering while an injured opponents player laid motionless on the field.  What, I can not understand is how or why they disrespect every player that they get.  Cunningham wasn't good enough, McNabb wasn't good enough, Vick isn't good enough.   So, who is?  What if they traded for Tom Brady?  I am sure they would still boo.

It is a proven fact that if a team or a person is cheered, the team or person is more likely to win.  If a team or person is booed they are more likely to lose.  So guess what Philly…you are killing yourselves.

The Eagles fans don't deserve this team.  Eagles fan deserve to not have a team at all.  The Eagles should move to L.A. and deal with the Hollywood weirdos rather than deal with a bunch of ungrateful bastards.  At least in L.A. you would have a fit fan base rather than a bunch of cheese steak filled fat asses.

What do you think?
