The 2009 playoff picture as it so stands:

Howdy-doo, boys.  Been away for a while but I'm back.  Let's get right to bidness...after the Dallas and San Diego losses it's natural to start pointing the finger and getting discouraged.  But my new Zen approach to the Eagles has me thinking otherwise.  There are certainly holes in this team, but there's still time to right the ship.  As far as I'm concerned, it's still anyone's division.  The Eagles can climb back into this thing, and here's how they can do it:

it's a crappy day out, I'm bored as hell, I got no other ideas for a post...let's do this:

PHILADELPHIA EAGLES - "The Waiting (For A Title Is The Hardest Part)" orig. by Tom Petty

Well yeah I might have kicked the idea of a Lombardi Trophy around

All it ever got me was down

The NFC Championship made me feel good

But not as good as a Super Bowl Title would now

Donovan, you're the only one that's ever known how

to make me wanna cheer like i wanna cheer now

The waiting for a title is the hardest part

Every week the Birds gain one more yard

Fans take it on faith, fans take it to the heart

The waiting for a title is the hardest part

DALLAS COWBOYS - "The Pretender" orig. by The Foo Fighters

Send in your linemen

Groan as Flozell jumps early again

D-Line buried him deep

The receivers that they field are never ready

Only Witten's ready

Jerry's finished making sense

Because of his ignorance

and a soft defense

Holes infinity

Wade, Jerry is spinning thee

It's never ending, never ending

Same old story

What if I say Dallas ain't like the others?

What if they screw up another one of their plays?

They're the pretender

What if under pressure Tony always surrenders?

NEW YORK GIANTS - "That Don't Impress Me Much" orig, by Shania Twain

You're one of those teams likes to think that they're great

Just 'cause you're one of five teams with a clean slate

But the Raiders, Skins, Cowboys, the Chiefs and the Bucs

all have one thing in common: each of 'em sucks.

Oh, you think you're special

Oh, you think you're something else

Okay, so you're 5-0

That don't impress me much

You've beaten the likes of Russell, Cassel and such

Don't get me wrong, I think your team is all right

But try playing a team that can put up a fight

That don't impress me much

WASHINGTON REDSKINS - "Snyder, Take This Job And Shove It (As Sung By Jim Zorn)" orig. by Johnny Paycheck

Snyder, take this job and shove it

Don't wanna work here no more

You've stirred a media frenzy

and discouraged the players

I was coaching for

You better not try to stand in

my way goin' out the door

Snyder, take this job and shove it

I ain't working here no more

I've been working these here sidelines

for only about one or two years

All this time I watched the Hogettes

drowning in a pool of tears

And I've seen too many old players signed

with overpriced salaries to pay

I'd give this job back to old Joe Gibbs

if I had the guts to say:

Snyder, take this job and shove it

Three weeks in...here's the NFC East picture as I see it:

Hey Birdbrains: I felt that in light of the recent flurry of bad news emanating from training camp that I'd provide some much-needed humor.  Mind you, this won't compare to Bye, Dawk's masterful piece "Eff You...We're Winning Anyway," but I think most of you should find this enjoyable and funny.  This is just a list of past Eagles players (as well as coaches and owners) that have made us want to cringe, cry, scream, kick the cat, and puke our guts out.  This...is the Official Philadelphia Eagles Hall of Shame.

Hey there, gents.  About a year ago, I wrote a piece discussing who I thought were the most overrated and underrated players in the NFL.  Now, I'm fixing to tweak that approach a little.  I'm going to discuss which players will rise to stardom this season, and which ones are in decline.  I'll also throw in the veterans I think will stage comebacks, and those I think will be soon be put out to pasture.  Enjoy, and let me know your thoughts.
