But the Eagles only have to do it once.  Just one time.

I'm flat out picking Eagles. You can't NOT in my position. They really could win. In with a shot despite the Belly and Brady thing. The fact it's against the greatest coach and player of all time. Who beat the Eagles in the superbowl ten years ago. In the context of injuries galore and coming from last in the NFC East the year before. It's too dramatic and magical not to get swept up in.

    It's an exciting time ... however,  your team has been high in contention from the get-go.  The Packers made a late run at it in 2010/11 so it was a constant 'lose-or-go-home attitude.  It was only when we got to the SB that I genuinely believed we could win it.  And we beat a great team (Pittsburgh) to cap it all off.

    The Foles thing has been the red-herring.  No one was foreseeing what has transpired.  That's the magical bit.  Written off as a questionable stand-in,  Foles can be the hero.

    True. From about week 5 or so when they were 4-1 having only lost to KC everyone was positive. Then they beat the Panthers and from there it's been superbowl run this and superbowl run that.

    I do remember that year. Matter of fact that was the year I fell in love with the Eagles, watching Vick. And who did you beat in Wild Card week? In those days Rodgers wasn't yet the mythical superstar he is now. I was actually living in the states and was a bit like you, once they got there it seemed like it was theirs... in the leadup though, they were just another wild card team.

    Foles is a funny one for Eagles faithful. A lot of people got on his bandwagon when he started for us cos of the ridiculous numbers in his breakout year. Most knew he didn't have that killer instinct... and had some holes in his game. After he was booted, Philly sports radio has laughed at him for two years and how bad he was under Fisher. Even when he was signed as backup most had a giggle. When he took over from Wentz, the naysayers pretty much all still wrote him off. His biggest critic ate his words this week... but maintains that Foles isn't a superstar. And that the game he played last weekend shouldn't be expected with any regularity. As much as we're singing his praises... it WAS just one good game. People were ready to crown Keenum as the Vikings starter for next season until he laid an egg against the Eagles. Now he's back in the pack again. I'm confident if Foles throws three picks, people will most certainly let him fade back into quarterback obscurity.

    Cousins out, Smith in. The money they paid for Smith could have been spent on Kirk a couple of years ago and they'd have a younger, better QB. Muppets.

    Zebras can get [censored] - one penalty against the Pats (on a punt return). Clearly they never hold. Cheats were also smiling after a Pats TD - they don't even try to hide it.

    I have an awful feeling I'm going to be cutting and pasting this in a few days.

    Here's the annual Super Bowl Prop Bets Podcast with Bill Simmons & Cousin Sal

    The podcast starts off with a story about a very interesting encounter that Bill Simmons had earlier in the week and they then discuss many of the 140 prob bets. 

    I haven't listened to the majority of the podcast yet but it's usually good for a laugh.

    I really should be picking the Pats to win as that's who I would pick if I had to put money on the game.  But to make it interesting and because I really would like the Eagles to win I'll go for an historic Philadelphia victory. 

    Eagles 24  Pats 21

    Gronk to score first TD.

    Cox or Ertz MVP.

    Brady to throw an interception and get sacked twice.

    Ajayi to score twice.

    Sooo... to even have a chance of winning the picks I have to take Pats. Which is what I feel is THE pick. I reckon 60% chance they win, 40% chance Eagles win.

    In a dome so it'll be very very high scoring. Eagles have enough weapons, and Brady will torch Eagles' secondary.

    Pats 42 Eagles 37

    The latest 30 for 30 (The Two Bills) is worth a look in preparation for the SB ... it may not be up for long but being a doco,  it could be. 

    Tells the story of the unique relationship between Bill Parcells & Bill Belichick ...

    Yeah good luck @Dappa Dan

    The Eagles can win but they can't afford any costly errors against these Patriots.   The game isn't over till it's over either.

    Can't give up a 5 yard penalty in the redzone against the Pats ... excellent drive by the Eagles & Foles but only 3 points.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

    • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
